Today Wild
Woman Author is pleased to welcome Lauri
Robinson who brings Heather Gibson-Dugan, from Sing to Me,
Cowboy a May release from The Wild Rose Press' Honky
Tonk Hearts Series. Don't forget--the author who garners the most visitor wins a tote bag from Kat's Kustom Karry-Alls. Let's put Lauri and Heather in the running!!
What
is “Sing to Me, Cowboy” about, Heather? Oh,
goodness, it's proof I’m the luckiest girl on earth. I was so
stubborn, so foolish, but Lance never gave up on me, not once, and I
love him all the more for it.
What
did you think the first time you saw Lance? It as ten years
ago, when we were still in high school, and I thought he was
downright dreamy. I had such a crush on him and prayed nightly that
he’d ask me out. He never did, though.
What
was your second thought? That he was utterly dreaming. I still
think so. Though there was a time I tried to hate him.
Did
you think it was love at first sight? Definitely. It just took
me ten years to admit it, or maybe to convince him it was.
What
do you like most about Lance? Everything. As you will, too, when
you read the story, but ladies, beware, he’s mine.
How
would you describe him? In one word? Mine. Oh, I already said
that. How about dreamy? I said that, too. Well, Lance is, Lance.
He’s not the most popular country western singer for no reason.
He’s perfect. He’s real. He’s down to earth, wholesome,
honest, a real genuine person. And he’s mine. All mine.
How
would he describe you? The love of his life. He’s says it to
me all the time, but I also see it in his eyes, in his actions. The
way he holds my hand or touches my cheek. Ultimately, I know it’s
true. I am the love of his life as he is mine. He might also say I’m
a bit bull-headed and can be very ornery, especially while pregnant.
What
do you think made Lance choose singing as a profession? I don’t
know that Lance did choose it, it was more like it chose him. He’s
a natural, and the way he sings his songs, they literally talk to
you. That’s what happened to me. It was one of his songs that made
me wake up and decide to take my life into my own hands. If not for
him…Well, let’s just say I’m who I am because of him. And I
love who I am, now.
What
is your biggest fear? I’ve already lived through my biggest
fear, and survived because of Lance. With him at my side, I have no
fears.
How
do you relax? By having my favorite cowboy sing to me.
Who
is your favorite fictional character and why? Cinderella,
because I’m her, living my happy ever after.
What
is the best piece of advice you ever received? Secrets can
destroy you. We all have the courage to face them. Find it.
Now it's Kat's turn to
ask the author: Tell us a bit about this series. What attracted
you to write for it? Was this your first series or are you a vet of
this type of story telling? How easy [or difficult] is it to write
for a series?
Lauri Robinson: I
was so excited to see the request for stories for the Honky Tonk
Hearts Series. I’d had Lance and Heather’s story rolling around
in my head for some time, but since I normally write historical
romances, I wasn’t sure if it would ever find a home. This was the
first time I attempted to write for a series that includes several
authors and I’m so glad I did. It’s been so much fun to be a part
of Honky Tonk Hearts. I’m enjoying reading all of the stories as
much as I enjoyed writing Sing to Me, Cowboy.

Thanks, Kat, for inviting me over today!
Congrats on the new release! Was the transition from historical to contemporary difficult? And have you ever dated a cowboy?
Thanks, Lisa! Actually, the transition was easier than I thought! There was still research to be done, but not as extensive as writing historicals. My first date with my hubby, well over thirty years ago, was to go horseback riding. ;)
Thanks for stopping by!
I have a soft spot for singing cowboys :)
Stacy, you have a soft spot for cowboys,period!
This story is packed with emotion. Lance and Heather won't disappoint you.
How brave of you to try a new genre. All the best with your book promo.
Another one on my TBR list. Sounds like a fantastic story. Nice teasers in the interview.
Thanks, Jannine!
Thanks, Maddy, it turned out to be a lot of fun! Thanks for stopping by.
I hope you enjoy it, Margo. I enjoyed the heroine interview. Kat is so creative!
