Reading buddies have expressed concern over whether or not they like the ‘right’ hero in Sinful Rewards. Yes, there’s a right hero for Bee, but both Nicolas and Hawke are hero-worthy men (Nicolas is about to bring his A-game – grins). No one will judge you harshly for liking the hero she doesn’t choose.
If the unsuccessful hero had been paired with a different heroine, he would have been chosen. They would have fit, become a solid, loving couple. He isn’t perfect, everyone has faults, but the heroine would have seen these faults in a positive light. She would have interpreted his words and actions differently.
That’s one of the many things I love about writing romance. It isn’t enough to find a great hero and a great heroine. We also have to ensure these two characters can become a great couple.
Blaine and Anna from He Watches Me work. They’re a wonderful couple. Bee and the man she chooses are a wonderful couple also. However, if Bee from Sinful Rewards had been paired with Blaine, they likely wouldn’t have made it past the first date. His lack of communication would have fed her doubt demons. Her worrying about his safety would have driven him bonkers.
Two wonderful characters don’t necessarily become a wonderful couple. As with any couple, writers (and readers) are looking for the elusive and difficult-to-explain chemistry, that spark that lights up the room whenever they’re together. Finding a couple with this chemistry is magical. Story becomes secondary. It is all about them.
Which romance couples do you believe have this chemistry?
