He along with his two brothers run a ranch in Montana that they brought back from the brink of bankruptcy to a million dollar operation. He is a man's man , funny, strong, confident in himself, always looking out for the people in his life but madly in love with the heroine in the book whom he met in passing on an elevator but could never forget and after seeing her several more times in other places he sets out to make her his. As a reader I loved the character Micah Steel in Diana Palmer's book "The Last Mercenary" He was strong, confident, ruggedly handsome, able to handle any situation no matter what was thrown in his way and loved with all his heart once he let it start beating for the only woman in his life. Now that is romance and my kind of heroes! ;-) As a writer I love the character I am working on Matt McCoy.

I love cowboys and he is so lovable. He is definitely hero material. I have to go with Hank from Mary Sullivan’s No Ordinary Cowboy. I love cowboys and he is so lovable.

Okay, so yeah, he was possessed by 13 souls of dark druids... but nobody's perfect! ;) Of contemporary romance? That's tougher, but I think I'd go with Gage Dalton from Rachel Lee's "Miss Emmaline and the Archangel" or David Blaine from Ginna Gray's "Once in a Lifetime." Older books, but dang they were great characters. Julie I’m a sucker for Karen Marie Moning’s hero in Dark Highlander, Daegus MacKeltar.

Makes me want to go back and read the saga again. Jillian, Harry was a great hero also, though I must confess it took a lot for me to get past his name. Every time I would read it I would think "hairy pie," and it would yank me out of the story. I'm a teribble, shallow person, I know, but... :-) Glad you liked Payne. It's funny because when I was plotting the first Men Out of Uniform trilogy, Guy was always supposed to be the leader of their crew. Turns out he's not. Funny how that happens.

And from my own books? Hmm, probably my first hero, Mark Malone. The Lone Cowboy was a world champion Bull rider, totally alpha, totally male, but a tortured soul with a secret past. Although I loved Lord Dain, too, and, oh yeah, Brian Payne is right up there. Yummy. I’ll take Harry Pye from Elizabeth Hoyt’s THE LEOPARD PRINCE. And from my own books?

He's pretty close to perfect. Even after reading hundreds of books he's still one of my favorite hero ever. Ok I lied, I'm hesitating !! What about Kevin Tucker from SEP's This Heart of Mine Can I pick 2 please ;-) No hesitation, if I could conjure a hero from a fiction it would be JAMIE FRASER. He’s pretty close to perfect.
