Re: Too Hot To Touch (2:20pm August 5, 2011):

Thank you for all the amazing comments! I loved your stories of first crushes,
and I hope any of you who read TOO HOT TO TOUCH will enjoy my story of a
first crush that ends in true love...

I randomly selected a winner for a signed copy of the book:

PEGGY ROBERSON

Peggy, email your mailing address to me at louisa @ louisaedwards . com, and
I'll send your prize package to you! Congratulations, and thank you to every
single person who commented!

Re: Too Hot To Touch (6:11pm August 3, 2011):

Maybe we should all make a pact to look up our first crushes! At least on
Facebook. *grin*

Re: Too Hot To Touch (1:25pm August 3, 2011):

Y'all are making me laugh AND cry with these stories!

Re: Too Hot To Touch (11:32am August 3, 2011):

It strikes me that a lot of these first crushes seem based on convenience--a cute
older guy you happened to see often, because he was related to someone you
knew! Which is exactly the case for my heroines, Jules, too...

Re: On The Steamy Side (12:09pm March 24, 2010):

Gail - Interesting--maybe kids in romance are less of a hot button for readers than authors and editors think!

Robin - I love Louisa May Alcott!

Alyson - LOL, thank you! Good luck with the drawing. I can't wait to hear what you think of OtSS!

Melissa - Good one--I tend to forget the child in that one.

Mary - Total classic! One of the first books I remember wanting to read over the instant I finished it for the first time.

Shirley - Thank you so much! I'm writing as fast as I can. LOL

Sherry - I've heard a lot about the father-daughter relationship in Castle; it really makes me want to watch the show. That, and Nathan Fillion...

G. Bisberg - True! Thank you for commenting.

Diane - Oh, the kids in Robb always break my heart. In a good way!

Rosemary - Thanks! I hope it works for you. And hey, guess what the name of the heroine of my third book is? ; )

Pat - I love it when authors manage to make the kids funny!

Diana - Yes, Nixie! Very memorable character. *sob*

Cecilia - You got it! Thanks for commenting.

Mitzi - I just read To Beguile a Beast! I love Elizabeth Hoyt's writing, and those kids were amazingly real and fleshed out. Added so much to the story.

Sigrun - That's definitely one of the pitfalls, and it can be hard to tell when you're writing how it's going to come across. Scary!

Jill - I loved meeting you, too! So glad you won the vodka, since I think you probably got more fun out of it than anyone else would have! ; )

John - Thank you for commenting!

Vicki - What a classic!

Donna - Kids up the ante immediately, don't they?

Laurie - Oooh, I don't think I've read that one. Will have to look it up!

Helen - Sounds great! Boys are fun to write. : )

Crystal - Thank you!

Norma - I'm glad you agree. It was a very interesting challenge, and I'm proud of the way it turned out.

Re: On The Steamy Side (2:07pm March 23, 2010):

Josie - Thank you so much! That makes me really happy. And glad you're enjoying the free reads; they're fun to write.

Michelle - Oh, ABOUT A BOY! Actually based on the Nick Hornby book, so that totally counts. :) Happy to be on your wish list!

Barbara - All my Recipe for Love novels are foodie/chef based! You're welcome. ; )

Leni - Adolescents seem even harder--hats off to Brown and Carr!

Karin - LOL, one of the many pitfalls of children in novels!

Colleen - Coulter is great at writing kids. Her Bride books are all wonderful!

Marjorie - Thank you for commenting!

Elizabeth - YAY! You made my day! Good luck with the drawing, and keep an eye on my blog--I'm doing a giveaway at a different site almost every day this month. Lots of chances to win!

Lisa - I have noticed a lot of kids on Harlequin covers--and I definitely enjoy that sort of family-oriented story.

Re: On The Steamy Side (11:10am March 23, 2010):

Giada - Good one!

Kara C- Yay! Fingers crossed that your search is successful, and that you enjoy OtSS!!

Maya - I agree, kids are dangerous. LOL--the ones you mentioned sound like lots of fun!

GS - Thank you for commenting!

Kara T - Oh, of course! Good one. : )

Re: On The Steamy Side (8:55am March 23, 2010):

Hi guys, and thanks for coming to chat with me! I've actually thought of several more examples since I wrote this post, so I'm interested to see if anyone else says them!

Willard - That was a great movie, and I'll always remember the little boy in it. So cute!

Marlene - Very true, although more true in the movie than the book, for me.

Carol - I haven't read Kerrelyn Sparks, but you're definitely making me want to try her!

Sherry - I love Virginia Henley!

Re: Can't Stand the Heat (11:28am October 8, 2009):

Patricia - It would definitely put a little joy into me. :)

Stacey - I've got a free read up now, and I want to continue to do them. It's fun to write something short and sweet for a change!

Mitzi - I'll do it!

Chris - Check out my site--I've got a free read up now, plus excerpts and deleted scenes. But more would be better!

Re: Can't Stand the Heat (10:23pm October 6, 2009):

Marsha - I'm told a copy of my book makes a nice stocking stuffer, as well. ;)

Sharon - Ooh, 'delightful' is one of my favorite things to be called! Thank you so much.

Jane - Ah, Tony. So bad, so naughty, so irresistible...

Jill - Thank you for posting about Jess and Frankie! I love them too--so much that I'm continuing their story through the next two books! Stay tuned...

Gail - Hot guy in the kitchen. What could be sexier?

Diane - I think I'm convinced!

Re: Can't Stand the Heat (4:03pm October 6, 2009):

Maria - I agree! I love the feelings that the characters don't end when the book does. It's part of what makes connected books so satisfying.

Vikki - That is my exact idea!

Re: Can't Stand the Heat (2:10pm October 6, 2009):

Theresa - Glad you want more Adam! So do I. : P

Kristen - I always like to obey my readers!

Cheryl - Adam's POV is a ton of fun to write...

Meg - Oooh, talk dirty to me, baby!

Sara - Adam would make a great stocking stuffer, too, I think.

Robin - How right you are--doesn't have to necessarily be a holiday thing!

Jenni - Good luck!

Marilyn - I think there will definitely be a recipe or two in my newsletter. : )

Jody - There are recipes in the backs of each of my books, and usually one per newsletter. Sign up to get them all! LOL

Re: Can't Stand the Heat (11:30am October 6, 2009):

Mary Anne - interesting thoughts on where characters come from. I have to say, mine are definitely a mixed bunch!

Carrie - Here's hoping the book lives up to the hype if you ever do read it. LOL

Jo - Yay! I always love to hear a reader say they enjoy contemporaries.

Kelli Jo - If you want some other fun add-ins, check out my website at www.louisaedwards.com -- there's an excerpt, a deleted scene, and a free read prequel (of sorts.)

Roxanne - YOU are the mistress of the dark chocolate caramello hero; I wouldn't dream of poaching on your turf! : )

Re: Bunco Babes Tell All (9:54am May 8, 2009):

Bunco is so much fun! I tried it for the first time at your RT party, and am now totally hooked. Maybe I should start a group in my town...

Re: Red Kiss (9:53am May 8, 2009):

It's been a long, strange, wonderful journey--and it's not over yet! I can't wait for RED KISS to be unleashed on the world...
