Dear Readers,
I’m gearing up for the June 10th start of my Lover Letters tour, celebrating the release of my new Cupid, Texas series. I’ll have the venue dates posted soon.
Cupid is an amalgamation of three Trans-Pecos towns—Fort Davis, Marfa and Alpine. With a population of 3,000 it’s a picturesque village tucked into a valley of the Davis Mountain Range. Its rugged beauty, mineral springs, vineyards and caverns famed for a stalagmite that looks eerily like the Roman god Cupid helped earn its declaration of Most Romantic Town in Texas by World Traveler Magazine.
The intriguing landscape is complemented by a fascinating history. Supposedly, Wallis Simpson lured King Edward VIII to the hamlet, where his love for the American woman inspired him to abdicate the British throne. Another enduring legend is that if you leave a request at the base of the Cupid statue in the town’s botanical garden, the one for whom you carry a torch will love you in return. Cupid’s vistas and legends weave spells over those who come to this eccentric, but welcoming community filled with cowboys, artisans, researchers and small business owners. Tourists flock year round, drawn by the mineral springs, antique shops, superb hiking, cutting-edge music scene, wine tastings and dude ranches.
The Cupid statue legend has for decades brought staggering amounts of mail to the town from lonely hearts seeking requited love. Back in the 1930s a group of local women—all of whom who had snagged their true loves after writing pleas to Cupid—took it upon themselves to reply to the letters. The mission lives on among their descendents. A close-knit group of women gets together twice weekly to answer letters, dispense wisdom to the lovelorn and share local gossip with one another.
The group’s original leader, Millie Greenway, spearheaded the mission after she became a believer. The man she longed for, John McCleary, broke off his engagement to the mayor’s daughter in order to marry Millie after she wrote a heartfelt letter to Cupid. There was a big kerfuffle over it and Millie’s letter is still on display in the library, a testament to Cupid’s powers.
Millie’s four great-granddaughters followed family tradition into the group, even though none of the young women have found their own true loves. In fact, none even believe the legend. They feel like frauds and are constantly resisting the group’s good-natured attempts at match making. But, they also feel obligated by family ties and a devotion to the survival of local commerce to keep up the custom.
On May 21st, the prequel novella, ONE TRUE LOVE, featuring Millie Greenwood, who started it all, will be released in ebook format. A print version will be available on June 18th.
On May 28th, Book 1, LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT will be released.
Book #2, ALL OUT OF LOVE, will follow on June 25th.
On the tour, I’m collecting real life love stories, so I want to hear yours. How did you meet the love of your life? Leave a comment to be entered into a drawing to win a Kindle Fire. If for some reason you can’t leave a comment, email me @ loriwilde@aol.com

I’m so proud I could bust. Three of my former students have exciting news and I just wanted to crow for them. There’s nothing more dear to a teacher’s heart than when her students do well.
Miranda Liasson is a double golden heart finalist!
Rachel Lacey just signed with the Nancy Yost Agency with her first book!
Julie Row is a double finalist in the Gayle Wilson Award of Excellence.
A well deserved toast.
Okay, not that kind of toast.
Congratulations Miranda, Rachel and Julie. I am so proud of you! You did the hard work and it’s paid off.
If any of my other former students out there have good news I want to hear from you.
Why yes, yes we do. Well, okay, not Rocky Mountains, mountains, but still. I recently embarked on a research trip to the Davis Mountains where my upcoming Cupid, Texas series is set. We were taking a test drive of our long, long trailer to make sure it’s in tip-top condition (after being in storage for five years) before we go on our two month book tour, dubbed Lori’s Wilde Ride by my publisher. You’ll be hearing more about that in the upcoming weeks.
Hang on, the mountains are coming.
Did I mention they’re desert mountains?
And very beautiful in a austere way.
Rugged and arid country, but there’s something for city girls too.
Can you believe it? Prada right here in the desert. Of course, I had to stop and shop. What about you? Been on a trip lately? Have any vacation plans for summer?
Winner of my March madness $50 B&N gift card is Lola! Congrats, Lola and thank you for playing.

Okay, so I heard all these glowing things about green smoothies. Dr. Oz touts them. They’re supposed to give you a “green glow”. Bloggers claim they will change your life. With a green smoothie every morning, you’ll turn into superwoman. So I thought, why not give it a try? Now here’s the deal. I LOVE greens. A big salad rich with spinach, romaine, bib, arugula, radiccho, cabbage, green leaf, parsley, basil, etc…and I’m in food heaven. A mixed green salad is one of my favorite things to eat, but the thought of blending it in a shake gave me pause.
“Oh don’t be scared,” all the green smoothie proponents assured me. “You won’t taste it when it’s blended with fruit and nut butters. We promise!”
So I bought all the ingredients, blending that puppy up into a pretty green smoothie. (Although I must confess to putting in less greens than the recipes called for, just in case the fruit and peanut butter didn’t mask the grassy green taste.) It looked so lovely!
I took a big sip and…………..
Eeew!!!!!!!!!!!!! It tasted like peanut butter and fruit flavored lawn clippings. Here’s what I have to say to the numerous health gurus who swore you couldn’t taste the greens. “Liars, liars, pants on fire!” What a waste of good fruit and peanut butter.
I called up my sister, who makes delicious healthy fruit smoothies and asked her how to make a green smoothie taste delicious. She said, “You can’t. They’re all nasty. Just down it as quickly as you can and then drink something good to get the taste out of your mouth.”
At last, some honesty. But why make me hate something I love–greens—by pureeing the hell out of them? Why can’t I just have a salad?
Do you like green smoothies? If so, for all that is holy, why? If not, you wanna come over for a salad? I’ve got all these lovely greens. If you’ve never tried a green smoothie and are thinking about it, run away, run as fast as you can.
Once upon a time, in a land far away, I used to play high school basketball. When you’re 5’9 by the time you’re 14 and attend a small school that eats, drinks and sleep basketball, you have little choice but to play the sport where long legs come in handy. This was back in the day when girls played half-court ball. I was a guard and my best talent was jumping high enough to tip the ball. Other than that, I was pretty lousy. See I’m naturally uncoordinated. Have trouble chewing gum and walking, but this time of year brings back fond memories of my days as a Lingleville Lady Cardinal and those skimpy little red shorts. There’s nothing like the sound of sneakers against a gym floor to conjure up memories of the roar of the crowd, concession-stand hot dogs and flirty bus trips that lasted far into the night. In honor of my teenage self, I teamed up with other authors to present…
March Madness: That time of year when women across the country are left to their own devices during the NCAA basketball playoff tournament.
Sure we could do some early spring cleaning, catch up on laundry, organize closets, and throw out all the junk in the garage/attic, but where’s the fun in that?

For the last eight years I’ve been teaching online through various places. I taught Romance Writing Secrets through Ed2Go, the largest supplier of online adult education. My class was offered all over the world, included Men’s College of Dubai. That was fun! I also did a year long mentorship through Savvy Authors and my students taught me as much as I taught them. After I sold two books based on a single 25 word high concept pitch back in 2006, I created my own high concept workbook and my accompanying Got High Concept? course has been the most popular of all my workshops. While I LOVE teaching, doing it along with writing six books a year for the last eight years has taken it’s toll. I’ve decided to step back from teaching. Just wanted to let you know that this is one of the last times I’ll be teaching my high concept workshop online. (I’ve got one more scheduled through Writers’ University in Jan. 2014.)

It’s simply the most effective way to capture a publisher’s interest. This is the perfect opportunity for you to learn how to craft a high concept pitch to sell your book.
Authors:
Would you like to propel your manuscript out of the slush pile?
Razzle-dazzle editors with your high concept story?
Trigger publishers to open their wallets?
Rush readers into stores as soon as your book is released?

Smooth Sailing, the second book in my STOP THE WEDDING! series from Blaze comes out today. The e-book version comes out March 1. I got to do all kinds of fun research for this one. Go sailing, talk to yachtsmen, and learn all about ropes. Cool research is one of the best things about being a writer.

I read the first two books in Zoe Dawson’s GOING TO THE DOG series and adored them, so I asked Zoe if she would mind letting me interview her. Doesn’t she look pretty in green?
Going to the dogs is such a fun series. Where did you get the idea?
In 1998 when Sex and the City aired, I was a single mother, divorced for five years with two young daughters. I couldn’t afford HBO and thought that the show was some risqué romp through New York City that I couldn’t relate to.
Then in 2005, a good friend of mine told that she couldn’t believe that I was a romance writer and I had never seen the show. So on her recommendation, I bought all six seasons for myself as a Christmas present in the very pink (even the New York skyline) pretty, decorative DVD box. I admired the presentation of each season with the full length pages of the stars of the show: Carrie Bradshaw, Miranda Hobbs, Charlotte York, and the unforgettable Samantha Jones.
I started to watch and, the more I watched, the more I fell in love with these women. Their friendship was magical, unshakable, and so very fun. The show was one six-season romance novel with four distinct romances, each just as wonderful as the woman who falls in love and buys into all that bullshit (That’s Miranda talking).
When I finished the series, I was in tears for two reasons. It was so romantic as each woman discovered who they were and where they belonged in the relationship with their great men, but also that the series was over.
That’s where my imagination took over and the Going to the Dogs series was born. I wanted to create that kind of friendship and that kind of great romance, but I wanted it layered with a cute furry friend. I also wanted to set it in very dog friendly New York City. I wanted to make each of the women a professional in the dog business. So my series is Sex and the City with dogs.
How many books do you have planned for the series?
Four.
In Leashed, Callie Lassiter is a dog trainer, my tomboy dog whisperer with her Great Dane, Jack. Groomed for Murder’s heroine, Brooke Palmer is a dog groomer and the baker of unique, organic doggie treats that her bulldog, Roscoe loves to munch on. Hounded features Poe Madigan as a Goth princess vet who is interning to become a doggie surgeon and handling two, very precocious Jack Russell terriers, Edgar and Allan, dubbed The Terrible Two. And in Collared, Harper Sinclair is a wise-cracking, worldly socialite who treats her award-winning standard poodle, Blue as just one of the dogs.
Dogs or cats?
I’d have to go with both. Right now we have a cat named Little because she is, well, little. She was a rescue and looked to be the runt of the litter. But don’t let her size fool you. She can hold her own. You should have seen her fending off my daughter’s boxer, Gus. That’s one feisty little cat.
Any special talents?
I paint watercolors and Chinese brush paintings when I can manage to fit them into my busy schedule. I’ve even sold four of them and had someone love one that I had sold so much, she commissioned one from me. That was pretty thrilling.
What was your first job?
My very first job was at a resort in Grand Isle, Vermont. I was sixteen and a waitress. It was quite an adventure and the first time I was away from home. I even had myself a fling and met my first love that summer. It was quite memorable.
If you could have dinner with any character (fictional or real) from history, who would it be and why?
Abraham Lincoln. I think it would be so exciting to talk to him about his life. The way he shaped the country and how he saved the U.S. from a terrible separation that could only have hurt us in the long run. He was a great, great man.
You have an alter ego. Do you want to share who that is?
Yes, I write for Harlequin Books as Karen Anders. I have written for Intimate Moments and Blaze. I currently am writing a Navy series, To Protect and Serve. I’ve submitted proposals to them for three more books. One set in Washington, DC involving an NCIS agent and a Navy scientist, one set in Hampton/Norfolk, VA involving an NCIS agent and a CGIS (Coast Guard Investigative Service) agent , and one set in Coleville, California involving an NCIS agent and a master sergeant in the Marine Corps. I should hear any day whether they were accepted. Fingers crossed.
What is your favorite thing about writing?
Organizing and writing a chaotic mishmash of a story from my head into a cohesive love sotry that can be enjoyed by readers. It’s so satisfying to have the empty page fill with words from my imagination.
Which of your pets is most memorable?
My Pink. He was the best cat I have ever had. I’ve had pets all my life, and I will admit that I would see people with their pets and I’d think, wow, they really love their pet. I loved all the different pets I have ever had, but I didn’t really understand, until I met my Pink. I miss him every single day.
When’s the next book coming out?
That’s a tricky question at this point. I have a self-imposed deadline of June 17, but if I sell some books to Harlequin, those deadlines might muck with mine. But, I’ll work hard to get Hounded out on time. Here’s the blurb:
Veterinarian Poe Madigan enters The Fur Ball with her Jack Russell terriers (aka The Terrible Two) to compete for a cash prize that will keep her mother from losing her home. But when her fabulous partner sprains his ankle, Poe must trade him and his talented Bichon for a muscle-bound jock who can’t dance and his Bassett Hound named Lazy Daisy. If that’s not enough to make her despair, it seems The Terrible Two have angered someone and they’re receiving death threats! Security Specialist Jared Taylor promises one of Poe’s friends that he will go undercover as her dog dancing partner to protect her from danger. What he didn’t expect was to find that his staid, traditional life could be turned all topsy-turvy and he would find a soft spot for a neglected hound and fall for a Goth princess. But will his omission of who he really is and his motivation ruin the real prize – Poe.
Blurb for Leashed
Jack has some ‘splainin’ to do!
That’s right! Callie Lassiter’s normally well-behaved Great Dane Jack has run off and done the wild thing with the neighbor’s dog. It must be puppy love! It’s doubly embarrassing since she’s a professional dog trainer. Of course, the neighbor would have to be hot, hot nightclub owner bad boy Owen McKay, just the kind of man Callie is determined to avoid.
Owen’s comfortable with his playboy status and the hype in the media. But the ground moves beneath his feet when he gets an eyeful of the girl next door. The Dog Whisperer never looked this good! How can he convince this wholesome honey that his player days are behind him? Maybe Jill, his Great Dane can help him with this dilemma now that she’s pregnant and Callie’s dog is to blame.
Is this bad boy a bad bet?
Blurb for Groomed for Murder
Can a dog have a bad hair day?
Brooke Palmer owns Pawlish, an exclusive doggie spa and grooming business in upper Manhattan, but when a client’s champion poodle gets a bad poodle cut and has to undergo therapy to recover, the client sues. The lawyer they send is drop dead gorgeous, but Brooke won’t be wooed by a corporate shark in a sharp suit.
Corporate lawyer Drew Hudson has better things to do then take on this ridiculous lawsuit, but since he works for the client’s husband, he has no choice. After meeting the beautiful, sweet-tempered owner, he can’t keep his mind on the silly case. But when the client turns up dog gone dead, Brooke may be a conflict of interest when she’s charged with the murder. All Drew wants to do is prove that this sexy entrepreneur is not dangerous, except to his heart.
Can she take a chance on him?
