Welcome to my Hero Hop post!
To say that I love romance novel heroes would be the understatement of the century; they're often my favorite characters. Seeing as how I've got over a dozen published books, choosing one of my own to introduce to you wasn't easy. Though I could probably talk about heroes all day, here's the one this post is all about: Jack Bryant, alpha wolf of the Half Moon Pack, who co-stars with his mate Mandy in the books Lonely Alpha and True Alpha. Here he is:
An excuse to use that picture wasn't the only reason I chose Jack, I swear. ;)
Here are the basics about Jack, accurate as of True Alpha (Half Moon Shifters Book 2):
Age: 28
Star sign: Taurus
Hometown: Somewhere Deep in Tennessee's Great Smoky Mountains
Occupation: Alpha wolf of the Half Moon Pack and mountain cabin maintenance and repair man
Status: Mated and married to Mandy Bryant née Foster
Children: One newborn daughter, Ella Bryant
Favorite food: bacon
What I love about Jack: his loyalty. Like any good alpha wolf, he's steadfast and faithful. And that's the sexiest trait any hero can have, if you ask me! Jack is also very brave, and not afraid to face danger in order to protect his mate or packmates. It also doesn't hurt that he has a Southern accent. ;) And he looks adorable when holding his newborn daughter; isn't a handsome man holding a little baby the cutest thing? I wish I had a picture of that to include with this post!

Is this your first time meeting a member of the Half Moon Pack? Their story so far...
Half Moon Shifters Book 1
When Mandy leaves the city behind and embarks on a retreat to the Great Smoky Mountains, she expects to spend the week alone with nature and a stack of novels. Instead, she ends up trapped on a remote mountain by a big game hunter who's hell-bent on bagging a werewolf. Lonely alpha wolf-shifter Jack, the last of the once-strong Half Moon Pack, is his target. Jack is determined to keep Mandy safe while hunting his hunter, but being around Jack brings out a wild side Mandy never knew she had. As silver bullets fly, so do sparks. If they can manage to defeat their attacker, Mandy will still have one problem to contend with: Jack is convinced that she's his mate.

Half Moon Shifters Book 2
With a baby on the way, Mandy and Jack are prepared for their pack of two to expand – or so they think, until Jack’s only remaining relatives return unexpectedly from Alaska, bringing others with them. Suddenly, the alpha couple has a lot more to worry about than what color to paint the nursery. But inter-pack dramas, baby shower plans and even a wedding can’t compare to the mayhem that ensues when a stranger from Mandy’s past shows up at the cabin’s doorstep, hiding a secret that could destroy the Half Moon Pack forever.
