I’m the Proud mom of the ALPHA male Derek and Jamie Michele. Yes he caused quite a bit of excitement after returning from the airport in a Police jacket. But the truth is the story is so him. He will always stop to help anyone, and complain later. We were very proud of him. He’s and Army medic having done a stint in Iraq, now he trains medics. They have to measure up to his standards, but he trains good soldiers.

I hope I never have to read Jamie Michele’s book with Derek as the hero, even I would have to say ewhh! Just disquise him enough so even I don’t recognize him.

But as an Alpha he is a good son, husband, father and soldier. Great story Jamie, we are very proud of you.

Jamie, I’m a day late, but had to stop in to comment. What a great story. Sadly I have no alpha brothers (or any brothers for that matter), so forgive me if I live vicariously through yours, lol.

It’s funny about brothers inspiring stories. I JUST finished reading a book by Brenda Novak, who (in the introduction) said her hero was loosely based on her brother. She did a wonderful job writing him–sex scenes and all.

*Sigh*

My bro is an Alpha, through and through. Once I started paying attention, the signs were all there. Loves loud music and fast cars. Tough as iron around men. Soft as silk with women and children.

And can I just point out that his current facebook status is:

“Still cannot find my pants.”

Sorry, Shoshana. Your baby brother’s an Alpha.

I can’t believe we uncovered another necessary shirt-removal story. I have to admit I’m picturing your brother as the guy who plays Devon “Awesome” Woodcomb on “Chuck.”

Great post Jaimie! Love the New Times Roman line. Too cute. And what a wonderful story.
You gotta admit, even with the ick factor, that your brother was the perfect Alpha hero. Post a pic soon. LOL!

>> Something about this situation had me thinking in Times New Roman

LOL. Great line.

As for your question about the alphas in my life, I was just remembering my younger brother telling me about how the last time he went hiking he found an older man who had fallen near the top of the mountain and was having trouble getting up. I was mentally reassuring myself that, though my bro helped the man down the mountain, he didn’t do it shirtless, and therefore this didn’t make him alpha. And then I remembered–he mentioned that he took off his shirt to use as a makeshift bandage because the guy’s head was bleeding. Does that mean I have an alpha bro too? Noooo!

Blergh!

Women sighing over my brother! I guess I should have expected it.

He looks like a blonde-haired, blue-eyed version of Sean Penn playing a tough-as-nails Army sergeant, BTW. Dunno if that helps or hurts.

Sounds like a Harlequin Presents just waiting to be written!

What would the title be?
