Wide shoulders, muscular, defined arms, tighter-than-tight buns and thick, virile thighs. In my college days I found everything that is manly and admirable in soccer players, but as an adult I discovered construction workers! Or one particular one at least, who I kept for myself. Just yesterday I was admiring his compact form and perfect shoulder to lean hip ratio and was reminded of why I thought he had the perfect body at twenty-two.

Physical work has a way of keeping the body in great shape better than any gym workout. A body using muscles on the job keeps proportion better. Construction workers, even the more technical types like my man, tend to do a lot of digging at times, and trust me, it does a body good!

Construction workers have to do a lot more thinking than you might expect as well. They have intense safety guidelines to follow that are constantly being updated and do more technical work than you might expect. Did you excel at geometry in school? Have great spatial skills? I admire these types of brains because I do not have one.

Another thing is these guys are men’s men. It’s a rough and tumble world, often far away from home as they build and repair our country’s roads, utilities and infrastructure. There are few women in the business. They fight more readily than in many careers and spend lots of time with each other around the clock doing man things. Yes, they are driving a truck and it probably has a gun in it too, for protection out in the middle of nowhere.

My erotic romance, Lucky Number Seven, my personal bestseller, is a werewolf construction worker tale. It’s on sale this month at my publisher’s site! A sequel, Bijou’s Bonds, is also available. Those are at Ellora’s Cave and I have an unrelated werewolf tale, Playing Lycan Games, available at The Wilder Roses (erotic imprint of The Wild Rose Press). All are available on Kindle and for other many ebook devices. You can also find Lucky Number Seven in print. It’s in the Even Naughtier Nuptials anthology.

Blurb:

Meet the hottest werewolf in town.

When Vi Lane’s cheating fiancé cancels their wedding only the day before the big event, she decides she’s never going to trust a man again. But that doesn’t mean she’s willing to give up sex! In fact, she promises herself she’ll experiment with the next man she sees. When she has a flat tire a few hours later, she’s thrilled to see Cere come to her rescue. Little does she know his werewolf pack, Brotherhood of the Dog, has declared her to be Cere’s true mate.

Can she learn to trust again, especially with a man who is hiding his true identity from the world? Will Cere himself be satisfied with a human mate? The Brotherhood is waiting for their answer.
