Scene from "The House on Black Lake" trailer

Every romance novel has at least one sexy hero, many books have numerous objects of desire. Each individual has their own notion of what is sexually appealing, so all tastes are different. However, there are a number of alphas who appeal to a broad range of women and are consistently mentioned as the sexiest of the breed.

In the [amazon_link id="0982500203" target="_blank" container="" container_class="" ]House on Black Lake[/amazon_link] there are three alphas competing for the sexiest slot, although only one will merge a hero.  Ramey Sandeley is the scion of an old Montreal family as well as a successful entrepreneur with preternatural good looks and devilish charm, Georgie La Pointe a glamorous French Canadian rock star with a flare for dangerous love, and sultry French artist Andre Labat a master of romance and seduction.

The top 25 sexiest heroes are in no particular order.

I am in the process of creating a list of the most popular dominant romantic heroes. But, for now, trust me when I tell you - Ramey Sandeley, the "hero" in "The House on Black Lake" is  a master of the craft, far more than the trailer on the home page implies. The trailer is only a taste - and there is another character, a certain rock God, Georgie La  Pointe, who will either draw you in or repel you altogether, depending on your taste for very dominant men.

It is my belief that dominant heroes are appealing to women because they create an instant challenge, and the vulnerability payoff is huge. The dominant male is decisive and confident and that takes bravery, passion, intelligence.  It generally always leads to success, and a sense of security for the woman he chooses, no matter how self reliant she may be.  Most women desire being submissive at times and also dominant when the need requires. Also,  there is the excitement of being with a highly opposite version of the female gender and, perhaps, of being forced to do exactly what we truly desire.

The bottom picture is of a dominent male that will never be tamed, and is best left in the wild!
