13 Things You Just Never Want to Hear From the Mouth of a Hero From a Romance Novel



Okay, since I am a romance writer despite the fact I hardly ever mention it on this blog anymore (Try talesfromthecrit.com) I thought I would make a nod to my true roots today. This is a list of things you just really hope you'll never hear a romance hero say...


1. "Mother said she saw you last night. Through your bedroom window."


2. "I had a test. It's not my fault it was a false negative."



3. "We'll have our own happily ever after. Just you, me and your hot sister."



4. "I'm actually afraid of guns--and spiders. Also mice, certain kinds of popcorn, my aunt Lois, midget porn, fixing cars, eating at a Chinese restaurant, people who have last names that begin with F, Levis 501's, aggressive women..."


5. "Sure, I'm totally into the idea of marriage. I've already done it thirteen times before."


6. "I'm looking for an old-fashioned girl, you know, the kind of girl who doesn't actually expect me to do anything."




7. "I've never had this kind of problem before. It must be you."


8. "I'd like you to meet Nadine. She lives in my basement. Well, I don't know if lives is the right word."


9. "I'm really trying to be abstinent right now."



10. "I wasn't lying, per se. There are many levels of truth."



11. "Here's all truths and all my hang ups. I love you for what you are. Who needs two hundred pages of conflict? Let's get married."



12. "You should come over for a little you know what. Honestly, my parents don't mind if I have people over."


13. "I'm not here to solve your problems. If you've got a stalker then YOU'VE got a stalker. Not me." (Just so unhero like.)



Now remember this is not representative of real life. Just of my heroes baby. Yeah.
