I'm going to list some Warrior Heros from the books on my shelf by the laptop:
Keir in Elizabeth Vaughan's Warprize Lachlain in Kresley Cole's A Hunger Like No Other Wyatt in Linda Howard's Drop Dead Gorgeous Cam in Linda Howard's Up Close and Dangerous (still reading it!) Wrath in J.R. Ward's Darkh Lhover Stephen in Christina Dodd's Lost In Your Arms Roarke in J.D. Robb's Born In Death
The rest I have there are Bad Boys! I guess my preference is showing ;-).
Look at your closest shelf and add to my list. Doesn't have to be current books, as you can see.
I see my book Facing Fear on the shelf but I couldn't decide whether Rick is a bad boy or a warrior, so I'm leaving that to you.
Warriors vs Bad Boys -- would they get along, you think? I'll have to let that simmer on my mind today.
************* P/S Last night at Walmart, out of curiosity, I read the last two pages of the new Karin Slaughter book. SPOILERS AHEAD. -> -> -> -> Wow. Talk about cruelty, dude! The couple was so happy about their lives together till the very last page. Then... Cold, man. I hurt for the readers who love this couple.
Unlike uber-bad boys, we're attracted to Warrior heroes because he has all the qualities we want in a hero. Bad boys might make you swoon, but the Warrior will drag you into his cave before he lets you go ;-).
Prime examples of Warrior heroes: (well, shoot, like you don't know!) Linda Howard alpha males. Can we say John Medina/Temple? Keep that in mind while you're thinking of examples ;-).
Movies first.
Ahem. Warriors...can I say...King Leonidas from 300 anyone? Yes, I can ;-).
Sigh. I never get tired of looking at this video....
The Warrior hero likes to roar a lot, especially if his territory is invaded. He's protective and during times of danger, totally incapable of understanding that his woman can take care of herself. Woe to anyone who hurts his loved ones. Because his wrath knows no boundaries.
Dirty Harry, anyone?
Come on, who's the Warrior in the Lord of The Rings movies? Three guesses. ;-)
The Warrior is probably the first hero I encountered in movies and on TV. After all, I grew up on Chinese Kung-Fu movies, where the hero would get his revenge and half the movie showcased his abs of steel and flying killer-hair while he fought with just one arm.
Can you remember your first visual taste of the Warrior man?
"I want you by my side, not like some illusion up ahead all the time. I want to hear you breathe hard, so I know this is real."--Rick Harden in FACING FEAR
