50 Ways to Give Your Hero Sex Appeal

Listen to a Course Sample

What Makes a Hero Sexy?

The Answer May Surprise You…

Course Description:

Contrary to popular belief, heroes in commercial Romance novels aren’t written to seduce the heroine. They’re written to seduce the reader!

In this PG-rated class, you’ll learn how to:

- Elevate your hero above the mind-numbing cliché of the muscle-bound hottie
- Escalate sexual and emotional tension (to keep the sparks flying between your hero and heroine)
- Develop sensual language that moves your readers emotionally
- Apply 8 simple strategies to create powerful love scenes

In addition, you’ll learn how to write mouth-watering Good Boys, deliciously naughty Bad Boys, and the yummiest heartthrob of all: the “Hybrid Hero!”

(Note: This course prepares students to write sensual heat, which is a requirement of many publisher imprints, including Harlequin Desire and Avon Historical Romance.)

Testimonials

I can’t wait to make the revisions you suggested and send my manuscript proposal back to (a Legacy Publisher.) I really feel like I’m on track to getting published this time! And I couldn’t have done it without you.

Terri HollisterAspiring Author

So excited! Got an agent! Adrienne is a top-notch-teacher.

R.B. SheltonAspiring Author

Finally. A writer who knows how to teach without boring the class to tears. Sure, you might be able to get your book published without Adrienne’s help, but why play “The Struggling Writer Game” when you’ve got a first-class professional to teach you the ropes?

J.P. CoyleAspiring Author

Adrienne has given us the tools to be successful.

L.J. TomkinsAspiring Author

I asked Adrienne to critique and line edit my first short erotic romance. Her insights, suggestions and techniques made my story much richer. I’m now applying everything I learned from Adrienne to my (bestselling novels.) I really appreciate her advice and encouragement and would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone who would like to improve their writing.

Jenn Roseton#1 Bestselling Author

Thank you for your critique. It was very useful. You taught me more in this email than I learned in 9 months of the (critique) club I was in.
