What makes a romance hero attractive to you?

Bookish Question #223 | What makes a romance hero attractive to you?

Attractiveness is in the eye of the beholder, so what I find attractive (or not) isn’t necessarily what someone else might find attractive … and that’s okay.

I tend not to picture characters when I read.

I’m more interested in their personality and especially in how they treat other people (okay, other characters).

I consider an attractive romance hero to be one who is intelligent, hardworking, and puts the needs of others before himself (especially the needs of the heroine). He should be a Christian (well, I mostly read Christian romance so that should be a given), who is loving and caring and unselfish, who doesn’t get angry without good cause, and who is never abusive in any way.

Basically, an attractive romance hero is one who demonstrates the qualities in 1 Corinthians 13, with a side of Ephesians 4:2.
