Top Ten Dominant Alpha Males in Romance Novels
The House on Black Lake has been adapted to screenplay. Go to Home Page to view provocative trailer filmed by Sundance, Spirit, Gotham, Venice award winning cinematographer, featuring scenes from novel.
The House on Black Lake has three powerful alpha men. The hero, Ramey Sandeley, has never tasted failure, and expects he will always win, whether in business or pleasure. His uncle Roger Sandeley is a member of an elite group of international businessmen in Montreal that make up a nearly invincible power elite. Georgie La Pointe is the cousin to Ramey Sandeley, a spoiled rock god, born to great privilege. A supreme narcissist, Georgie has never slept with the same woman more than once, grooms his hair in the eyes of his lovers, and makes love to himself while listening to himself sing.
Alphas are great fun to play with, and when a woman wins in the game of love with an A - it is a triumphant battle indeed. Alexandra is lured by all three of these powerful dominant alphas. A broken and world weary divorced mother when she journeys to Black Lake, she seems ill equipped for such a task. But as Alexandra is drawn into the underground and mentored by the mystics and gypsies dormant powers are unleashed, and she begins a dramatic transformation. Will the romantic beauty beat the dominant alphas at their games, and tame each and every one? Perhaps not tame, but certainly their lives will never be the same.
