Sexy, Wicked Heroes by Robecca Austin #WickedWednesday

WICKED WEDNESDAY

There is wicked and then there is Wicked...those bad boys we love to peel the layers from and see what's underneath.

Thank you, Brenda, for hosting me today.

I one-click books with wicked characters every time. They are also my favorite to write. There is an allure about them that’s dangerous, forbidden, and sometimes just out of reach.

They are as compelling to read as they are to watch on TV, and they feed into the secret fantasies we would never talk about openly.

So what makes these alpha characters so delectable? All that brooding angst brewing under the surface. That’s what gets me, anyway. They give off that “nothing can hurt me” vibe. But we know that’s not true.

Then, there is the mystery. Let’s face it, the mystery surrounding these characters draws us in like a bee is drawn to nectar. We want to know what makes them tick.

And what makes these characters more swoon-worthy, is when we finally know what makes them who they are: the trauma, the hurt, the pain. When they finally let us in. Trust us with their softer, vulnerable side, knowing those traits don’t make them weak, but stronger. And they do it with a character who fought for that trust.

In Courted by the Billionaire, Heath and Latricia get into a wicked game of revenge.

I love writing characters that are a little wicked, with a touch of daring. Heath is no different when he goes after Latricia to avenge his brother.

He’s the overprotective big brother. The no-nonsense family member that’s got your back. So when his little brother gets injured, Heath does what he always does. Protects.

Except, he can’t find the true culprit, and Latricia isn’t the cold-hearted villain he has made her out to be. The one thing he didn’t expect? She’s just as loyal to her brother.

She’s sweet. Sensual. Innocent.

Latricia plays his wicked game but refuses to give up her family!

So what’s a hero to do when he can’t take revenge against the person he wants? He takes the biggest risk, even when it might rip out his heart!

Blurb:

Family comes first.

The sentiment has been drilled into Latricia’s mind since birth.
When she’s forced to choose between self-respect or her family, what would she sacrifice?

The first time she saw Heath McCreath, he was out for blood. Her brother’s blood.

At their second meeting, he vowed to make her pay for her brother’s crimes.
As if his promise to destroy everything she loved isn’t bad enough, the threats come from the sexiest mouth she’s ever seen.
He’s her blackmailer and she shouldn’t feel anything for him, so why does her body betray her?

Now she has to decide, him or her?
