Alright seductresses, today we welcome Heidi McLaughlin, Liam, and Josie
to our blog! They were all kind enough to stop by and hang out for a little
bit. We had tons of fun chatting it up with these lovely people! If you haven’t
had a chance to check out their story, we highly recommend it! Forever My
Girl is a sweet story about reunited love & second chances!
D: So
I'm interested in why you chose the theme of reunited love/second chances? Does
this hit close to home for you? (it does for me, so i love these story lines)
Heidi: The storyline actually chose me. I saw a picture and this story
just appeared. From the first moment, it was always a second chance story.
Em: Love
that you said it chose you! Does that make it easier to write?
Heidi: It does because everything was there. I just had to put it down.
D: Is writing your main profession?
Heidi: I wish. Right now it's just a hobby.
D: So, if it's a hobby, when do you fit in
time to write?
Heidi: At night, or on the weekends. I did just over 3400 today on a
standalone that I'm working on.
D: wow! That's impressive :)
Heidi: Thanks. Not sure how I find the time at night. My daughters play
basketball so each night is almost in a gym someplace.
D: What is your other job? (if you care to
share)
Heidi: I work in land use, which in a nutshell, if you want to do
something to your property you have to come see me
Em:
When you were younger, what did you want to be? Was writing always something
you were interested in?
Heidi: I've always wanted to be a writer, but thought I'd be a lawyer
because I like to argue
Em: Interesting... I'm not sure I could hack
it at that job. So, the liking to argue. Now I can see why Josie & Liam
were so good at their "discussions"
Heidi: Haha... I may have picked a few fights with my hubs for some
reactions
Em: Genius. I'm sure he definitely appreciated
that
Heidi: He did after he found
out what it was for!
D: lol! good hubby
Em: How many books do you anticipate in the
series? I'm super excited about the next one based on the clip at the end of
this book!
Heidi: Definitely 3. I'd like to do a prequel and a novella with Liam
and Josie.
Em: We can never have too much of those 2
Heidi:
I agree. Never too
much Liam!
Em:
Will Nick be moving back to town after he finishes his year out of the country?
Does Noah still talk to him?
Heidi: No, Nick isn't coming back at the end of his year
and he hasn't had any contact with Noah
Em: I didn't love him. I can't decide if I'm
glad he won't be back or still irritated with him!
Heidi: Well, let me just say, the moment he saw Liam he just knew
Em: I'm sure... I saw that letter he wrote. I
tried to see things from his POV, but I didn't like how he let his temper drive
him sometimes.
Heidi: He's a man scorned. They do crazy things
Em: Outside of the Beaumont series, you have mentioned
a stand-alone novel. Will that be out soon?
Heidi: I hope so. My goal was March, but not sure
I'll make it.
Rapid Fire Time!
D: Favorite Book
Heidi: Anything by Judy Blume
D: favorite season
Heidi: Summer
D: morning or night
Heidi: Night
D: flirty or dirty
Heidi: oooh.... flirty and dirty
D: coffee or tea
Heidi: Neither, no caffeine for me. Sprite Zero
Dana: hot or cold
Heidi: hot
D: sweet or salty
Heidi: sweet
Em: ok. I think that's all for you! ...now
we're ready for Josie & Liam if they're ready
Heidi: They are!
(Heidi and D step out
for a bit while I get up close & personal with Liam & Josie – who are
possibly the sweetest couple I’ve seen recently!)
Em: Hi guys! Thanks so much for taking time
out of your busy schedule to sit down with us! I’m sure you two are super busy
with getting ready for the tour and the flower shop, so I will get right down
to business! So... Liam. How did you know Noah was your son so quickly?
Liam: The moment he said he saw me kissing his mom on a DVD and said
her name I looked at him, really looked and saw me staring back
Em: I'm sure that was a crazy revelation!
Liam: My heart was racing. It took everything in me not to take him
from that museum.
Em: I'm sure that would've made the trip to
the flower shop even more interesting.
Josie
- You said you had some ideas about how you thought he figured it out. What
were you thinking?
Josie: There are a few people who are town gossips. I thought Liam
found out from one of them.
Em: Makes sense! I'm sure they would've loved
to do that.
Josie: A few of them yes. Evil people when they have something like
this hanging over your head
Em: Some people just love to get attention, no
matter who it could hurt
Em: Liam. Are the ladies still eyeing you up
and following you around? I'm sure they know you're tied down now, but I'm not
sure that will stop some of them
Liam: They are. Most of them don't care that I'm taken. I think that
encourages them more.
Em: Ah geez. Floozies.
(They responded at the same time for this one!)
Josie: We know someone like that! Liam:
Or ex-managers
Em: :cough: Sam :cough:
Em: Josie. How do you not just kick the crap
out of those girls? I'm pretty sure that if I had a guy looking like Liam, I
wouldn't let him out of the bedroom. I mean my sight. Yes. I mean, I wouldn't
let him out of my SIGHT. Or bedroom.
Josie: It's not anything new. He was like this in high school, maybe a
bit more cocky now though. We are just about to go on tour, so I'm sure it will
be hard, but I see the way he looks at me and looks at them and I know he sees
nothing in them.
Em: :sigh: You guys are so sweet.
Josie: Easy to be sweet when you're in love
Em: Will the cat go on tour with you? And is
he still adjusting well to not being in LA anymore?
Liam: The cat that hates me will not go on tour. Linda, my maid from
LA, is now in Beaumont, he likes her. The cat does love Noah, so I'd say he's
adjusted well.
Em: Glad to hear he hasn't had to pack his
kitty bags just yet.
Liam: Oh he has his moments
Em: So... going on tour again soon? Does that
mean the wedding will happen rather soon?
Josie: No, not until after the tour. Surprisingly, we aren't in a hurry
Em: :sigh: Will there be any more Liam &
Josie babies?
Liam: Well... we practice a lot. You know, we have ten years to make
up for and Noah wants one so we'll see.
Em: Ha! I'm sure you do. It'd be hard to
resist Liam.
Josie: Oh I don't know about that. He does have his quirks
Em: He has to pack in as many quirky things as
possible to make up for the lost time, too. Liam - are you gonna watch the
Superbowl with Peyton?
Liam: I am. Her and I have a date in her basement. We'll watch the
first half and see how things go before we decide to join the others
Em: Josie - has business picked up at the
flower shop since your man has been back in your life? I'm sure people come in
hoping to catch a glimpse
Josie: Business was crazy at first, but Liam Westbury and Liam Page are
very different. Liam Page is around on Saturday nights when the band plays in
the coffee shop
Em: Smart move!
Josie: It works well and the lines aren't crossed
Em: I loved when you told him on your date
that you wanted to be with Liam Page on your date. :sigh:… So you guys ready
for some “rapid fire” questions? You both have to answer them!
Em:

Em: Noah wants a dog, too... I think you're
going to be outvoted on this one, Josie.
Josie: Probably, these boys give these puppy dog eyes and make me cave
Em: I'm sure. Maybe just tell them they will
be in charge of cleaning up the mess in the backyard.
(Heidi
& D came back just as I was wrapping up with the lovebirds!)
Em:
Well, I think that's everything! Thank you all for coming!
D: thanks so much!!!
Heidi: You're very welcome!
Josie
& Liam: Thank you!
