The authors investigate the potential of future TeV linear e{sup +}e{sup {minus}} colliders to observe singly-charged Higgs bosons (H{sup {+-}}) via the coupling H{sup {+-}}W{sup {-+}}Z, which would signal the existence of exotic Higgs representations. In the context of a Higgs-triplet model compatible with the electroweak oblique parameters, they estimate the cross section for producing charged Higgs-triplet bosons that couple predominantly to W and Z bosons in 0.5-2 TeV-e{sup +}e{sup {minus}} colliders. The principal backgrounds are evaluated and the viability of the signal is discussed and illustrated.
