My next author is:
USA Today Bestselling Author Alexandra Hawkins!
Alexandra Hawkins is an unrepentant Anglophile who discovered romance novels as a teenager and knew that one day she would be writing her own. In “The Lords of Vice” series, she has combined her love of English history, mythology, and romance to create sensual character-driven stories that, she hopes, will touch readers’ hearts.
Alexandra’s latest release is SUNRISE WITH A NOTORIOUS LORD:
Dashing, decadent, and deliciously seductive, the notorious Lords of Vice indulge their every desire—from dusk until dawn…
FOREVER THE BACHELOR
Christopher Courtland, Earl of Vanewright—known around London as “Vane”—is the very picture of a rich, handsome ladies’ man. Why shackle himself to just one lady when he’s free to sample them all? In spite of his own mother’s attempts at matchmaking, Vane has sworn to stay single. Until he has a chance run-in with Miss Isabel Thorne…
NEVER IN LOVE—UNTIL NOW…
A modest and refined beauty, Isabel is a lot more brazen than she appears. When a pickpocket tries to make away with Vane’s bejeweled snuffbox, Isabel attempts to thwart his escape…and manages to steal Vane’s heart. But the harder he tries to seduce the sharp-tongued, strong-willed Isabel, the more she resists. Now it’s up to this tried-and-true bachelor to find a new way to play the game…or risk losing the one woman who’s ever captured his heart.

The challenge of getting the one who is so “slippery” and experiencing all that rakish talent.

Being the one who finally captured him.

I think it’s that whole taming of the bachelor aspect that does it for me:)

What is it about the notorious bachelor that’s such a draw for romance readers?
One simply has no clue what he would do next, what naughtiness he’d cook up, and the factor of the inability to keep him.

I think it’s always interesting to see how a notorious bachelor fall head over heels in love 🙂

I think it is interesting to see how he will succumb to his feelings and admit that he is in love. I like an unpreditable hero.

The bigger their reputations, the harder they fall!
April 3rd, 2012 at 1:09 pm · Link
To see who it is that’s going to win them over
April 3rd, 2012 at 1:26 pm · Link
The challenge of redeeming them. Sometimes half the fun is trying to do that even if the heroine may not succeed.

Wanting to be the woman to catch an uncatchable heart is what draws a woman to a notorious bachelor.
They are simply irresistible.

It’s so much fun to watch them squirm and fall in love lol

They always have such a magnetic personality & women can’t help but be drawn to the ‘rogue’ or the ‘notorious bachelor’ but the real test is seeing if it’s possible to tame such a beast.. That’s where the real “taming” begins…

I like to watch them be tamed 🙂 The notorious ones are normally the hardest so I think that is what the draw is for me see them tamed and reeled in 😉

April 3rd, 2012 at 7:32 pm · Link
I think people tend to want what others want lol.
April 3rd, 2012 at 8:41 pm · Link
Watching and reading about a heroine tame them. It’s always the most rakish who fall the hardest.
April 3rd, 2012 at 9:22 pm · Link
It’s a bit of that whole “bad boy” thing, where if they are intent on maintaining their independence, they’re on the verge of falling over for the one woman will transform their view on life 🙂
April 3rd, 2012 at 9:43 pm · Link
That a “bad boy” would fall for someone deeply enough to accept some restrictions to be with her.

everyone wants to land the one no one else can its a big game so its a draw because tahts what romance is built on things that take place that havent

It’s seeing that regardless of what life has dealt you, your soul will lead you to where your heart is meant to be. It is captivating to see what special person draws to each of these men. The pieces fit so perfectly, it’s hard to picture the outcomes to be anything other than what the storyline captures.

I love to watch them fall for their true One!
Thanks for the giveaway!
April 4th, 2012 at 11:31 am · Link
Let’s see if we can break them down, change their ways, or show them what it’s really about!
April 4th, 2012 at 11:37 am · Link
They have that bad boy personality that the reader can’t help but wonder who and how will capture and tame it.
April 5th, 2012 at 12:11 am · Link
I like to watch them become enlightened about what they have been missing from their lives, see the arrogance get transmuted to cooperation and a desire to please the woman who has captured their heart.
April 5th, 2012 at 11:43 pm · Link
His sense of invincibility with the tough of arrogance that he is right. We ladies just like to see them fall. We like them to acknowledge that they are still human and will likely to err.
