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