Prince Alexander ... what can I say? He is in all essence my prince charming: Sweet, caring, loves me (... well Rose) immensely, wonderful manners, musically inclined, loves art, and treats people kindly and with respect.
If I had to pick a song to describe him about 1 week ago truth be told I don't think that I could do it. Why? Well I had not heard "Because You Live" by Jesse McCartney yet (I know it's Jesse McCartney but just listen to the song it's beautiful). "Because You Live" perfectly describes Alex; it shows his devotion it also leads into the pain of the separation that he feels when Rose creates the break in the relationship (Which I promise that I will explain soon (I swear)).
A quick Q.&A. On Prince Alexander
Q: Why is Alex such a hopeless romantic?
A: Alex's father had always told him that when he found a woman he truly wanted to be with to do everything in his power to hold onto (He lost his 'true love' and did not want the same thing to happen to Alex) so Alex does everything in his power to be Rose's dream man because he does not want to lose her.
Q. Where do you find your inspiration for Alex?
A. Well ... sadly I can not say that my boyfriend is my inspiration for Alex. Why? Well that's because I don't have one. :) But anyways Alex come from everything I look for in a guy, he is the type of guy I dream of every night. Whenever I wright a scene with him in it I start to fall more and more in love with his character; he's just so sweet of a (fictional) guy.
Q. Obviously this whole break thing breaks Alex's heart right? So then why would you intentionally break his heart if even you personally love him?
A. That's really hard to answer. The thing is it hurt Rose to create the break too. I think as an author I had to hurt the two of them (whether or not I wanted to) because there is no way that certain circumstances could have been tolerated between them without the break. I also think that the break really causes the reader to sympathize with both Rose and Alex. For example after the break there is this scene (one of the few) that is written from Alex's point of view and it is so sad (It almost broke my heart to write) and my best friend Yuki (Kara) read it and actually started to cry because she basically wanted to go into the book and hug him (she was dying to comfort him). The hard thing to explain is that the break was needed to make the reader realize just how powerful both of their feelings are and just what both of them are willing to give up.
Q: What does Alex look like?
A: (Looks up amazed that she had not said that in the description of him at the top) OH MY GOD! I AM SO SORRY!! (oops) Alex is tall and obviously strong (well built and toned muscles (melts as she pictures them)), he has jet black hair, and amazing ocean blue eyes, as well as the smile of a god and the face of an angel ... in other words he is absolutely perfect!
hope you guys liked the chance to get to know my leading male a little better :)
