Hi everyone.
First I’d like to introduce myself.
My name is Heather Dahlgren and I write Erotic and Contemporary
Romance. I have 3 books out right now,
Changed (Book One Of The Change Series), Commitment (Book Two Of The Change
Series) and Dancing Hearts (A Standalone).
I love every second of being an author and all the amazing people I’ve
met. I am married to my high school
sweetheart and we have three amazing kids.
I am a stay at home mom and I use that term loosely considering all my
kids are in school. I have a teenage boy
and 2 tween girls. Yes, the hormones in
my house are off the charts. I live in New Jersey and I’ve never pumped my own
gas. I am thrilled to be a part of Blog
Fest and getting the chance to meet more readers, friends and amazing authors.
I also want to
introduce you to the male characters of my books. What better way of doing that then an
interview. I asked the lovely Melissa
Blackstone from the magazine that one of my female leads, Maddie works for, to
do the interview. She happily
accepted.
I can’t believe I am surrounded by four of the sexiest
men I’ve ever seen. I am a professional
but crap this is going to be amazing. I
look over at the four of them talking and laughing with each other. It is making focusing on this interview
difficult that’s for sure.
Melissa: Guys thank you so much for agreeing to do this
interview with me. How about you each
introduce yourself and tell us a little about your story. The only thing I ask is that you keep it
clean. (Everyone looks over at Young.)
Young: What? (He
looks around at all of us with mock offence on his face) You guys think I can’t
keep it clean? (Campbell, Dick and
Cooper all laugh at once) Hey Fu…Forget
you guys. I’ll show you pu..guys I know
how to keep it clean. (Campbell is
shaking his head trying to hide the fact he is laughing, while Dick and Cooper
just flat out laugh at him.)
Melissa: Fair enough Young. Campbell why don’t you start and tell us
about you and your story?
Campbell: Sounds great.
First I want to thank you for taking the time to do this interview. I know it will make the boss lady very happy
and we like to keep her happy. (All the
guys shake their heads in agreement.)
When I first saw Kenz (Kenz is his girlfriend) it was unbelievable. I’ve never in my life felt an instant
attraction like I did with her. I was
nervous, excited and completely turned on.
When we got together, it was the most romantic, sweet and hot
relationship I’ve ever had. I knew
pretty quickly I was in love with her.
Unfortunately, there were secrets, secrets that caused so much
pain. Pain that I never in my life
thought I’d experience. (He is covering his
face with his hands with his body bent forward.)
Melissa: It
seems you are still struggling with what happened Campbell. You want to talk about that. (He snaps his
head up with a look of devastation clear on his face.)
Campbell: When
someone you love is caused that amount of pain, it isn’t something that you
forget. I would have done anything for
Kenz and it destroys me to think of everything that happened. Please, let’s move on. (Dick comes over and gives him a hug and
whispers in his ear. Luckily for me Dick
doesn’t whisper quietly. He said, “You
are a good man, don’t let the past define you.”)
Melissa: Alright
Campbell let’s move on. Your story isn’t
just about you and Kenz though is it?
(This brings an immediate smile to his face.)
Campbell: No
it’s not. It’s about our friends as
well. My guys Young and Dick were with
me when I met Kenz in the bar. She was
there with her friends Maddie and Becca.
We all became the best of friends.
Young: Fu…Heck
yes we did. Truth or Dare! (Everyone starts laughing.)
Melissa: Truth
or Dare? (Campbell looks over at me
laughing.)
Campbell: The six
of us play truth or dare. We come up
with some ridiculous dares, especially Young.
He takes that game seriously.
(Young stands up and takes a bow.)
Young: I am the king of that game. I will never back down from a dare and I will
always come up with the best ones. Most
of the time these pu…guys whine about doing it.
(He starts laughing and Campbell and Dick shake their heads. Young looks at them still laughing.) You guys know it’s true, I’ll do anything.
Dick: He’s not
kidding. He really will do
anything. He just doesn’t care. (Young holds his hand up for someone to high
five him. And they all start laughing. I
laugh along with them.)
Melissa: Thank
you Campbell. Let’s move on, we still
have a lot to cover. Young, would you
like to tell us a little about your story.
Just please remember to keep it clean. (He gives me a wink and a smirk.)
Young: You’ve
got it sexy. (I actually feel myself
blush.) It all started when Campbell met
Red. (Red is Young’s nickname for Kenz.)
I saw Maddie and knew that we would be together that night. As always, I was right and we had one
fu…freaking good time. It went on like
that, just sex for months and I couldn’t believe that I had actually let
feelings into it. Maddie and I are both
good for one night stands, multiple partners but letting feelings in was not
something we did. Well that wasn’t the
case with her. I couldn’t help it, I
fell in love with her.
Melissa: Well
that sounds…romantic. (Everyone in the room laughs, including Young.) What I mean is I guess Maddie was happy to
hear that. (Young gives a mock laugh.)
Young: Melissa,
you know as well as I do being Maddie’s boss, that she wouldn’t want that. (I wish I could say he was right, but I
honestly didn’t know that.) She was not
happy with any of that. She doesn’t do
relationships and wasn’t about to break her rules for me.
Melissa: That
must have been hard. (He smirks at me.)
Young: I’m not a
guy who just gives up. I had to come up
with a plan, something that would convince her that we are meant to be together
in more than the bedroom. And the car,
kitchen, couch, shower…
Campbell:
Alright Young we get it. (Young
just laughs.)
Young: Anyway,
nothing was easy when it came to Maddie.
Nothing but sex. There was so
much more than I ever expected for why Maddie is the way she is.
Melissa: Care to
explain? (He leans back in his seat with
his arms folded behind his head and a smirk on his face.)
Young:
Nope.
Melissa: Alright
we will move on. Just like with
Campbell, your story included the whole crew is that right?
Young: Yes. We continue on with our truth or dare and can
I just say something while I have the attention of so many sexy people?
Campbell: Here
we go.
Dick: This should be good.
Young: Shut up
you pu…guys. I’ve got a point I want to
make.
Melissa: Go
ahead Young.
Young: Thank you
sexy. So here it is, don’t you all think
that playing strip poker is fun? Don’t
you think that it is something that should be played often? I mean why wouldn’t someone want to
play? (Everyone is laughing. Everyone except for Young. He is totally serious.)
Campbell: Young,
how many times do we need to go over this?
Playing strip poker with my best friends is not something that is going
to happen.
Young: You know
what Campbell? You guys are a bunch of
fu.. (he turns to look at me) This is harder than I thought, not cursing. We should probably move on. It’s going to burst out of me.
Dick: I knew
this was going to be hard for you. I’m
actually impressed you’ve kept it clean this long. (Once again they all start laughing and Young
flips them off.)
Melissa: Let’s
move on. Dick, I know that your story is
not available yet but is there anything you would like to say before we move on
to Cooper? (He gives me a smirk)
Dick: Melissa I
would just like to say that I love my friends and I would do anything to
protect each and every one of them. The
boss lady, I have no doubt, will tell my story exactly how it needs to be
told. I definitely have a lot to tell
you all and I’m really excited for you all to finally get my story.
Melissa: Can you
tell us the name of you story and when it will be releasing?
Dick: The name
of my story is Conflicted. You would
have to ask the boss lady when it is going to release, but I know it will still
be a while. Maybe next month sometime.
Melissa: Thank
you Dick. We all look forward to this
story. I personally can’t wait to know
more about the mysterious Keith Dickson. (He gives me a sexy wink and
nod.) Alright, let’s switch gears. Campbell, Young and Dick you guys are all
from the same series, The Change Series.
Cooper, you aren’t part of that series you have your own story. Would you like to tell us about your story?
Cooper: Thank you Melissa. First I’d like to say that even though I’m
not a part of The Change Series, these guys right here have become great
friends of mine. Second, I’d like to
thank the boss lady for telling my story.
(I smile at him for his sweet words.)
Melissa:
Alright, so why don’t you tell us how you and Emma met? (He crosses his colorful tattooed arms and
smiles at me.)
Cooper: We met
at a Luke Bryan concert. We both share a
love of music that I’ve never had with anyone.
That first encounter was mind blowing.
After that we continued our relationship, even though it took just about
everything to get around our schedules.
Melissa: Why
would that be such a problem?
Cooper: Emma is
a hair dresser, she works during the day.
I own a bar therefore I work nights and weekends. We snuck in every spare minute we could to be
together.
Melissa: Sounds
challenging. (He gives me a wink.)
Cooper: It was
something that I wouldn’t let stand in our way.
Melissa: That’s
great. I’ve read your story, and I have
to say that you are a standup guy. You
stepped in and took care of everything after losing your father. I’m sorry for your loss by the way.
Cooper: Thank you.
I wasn’t that guy right away.
However, once I straightened myself out I took care of everything. I took over my dad’s bar and made sure that
my mom, who was suffering greatly with the loss, was taken care of.
Melissa: You
gave up a lot to take care of your mom, isn’t that right?
Cooper: I’ll do
anything for the people I love. No
question about it.
Melissa: That’s very noble of you.
Cooper: That’s
who I am.
Melissa: You
have a love for music and you play guitar.
Emma loved that didn’t she? (He puts those color arms behind his head
and smiles at me.)
Cooper:
Yes. She loved the fact that I
played guitar. She wanted me to teach
her, we had some amazing lessons. She is
a quick study.
Melissa: Sounds
amazing.
Young: Hey Cooper maybe you can teach me how to
play. You know if women think it’s that
sexy. (Cooper laughs shaking his head.)
Cooper: Sure
Young. (Young jumps over and hugs him.)
Young: You are
the man Coop! (Campbell and Dick are
both laughing. Dick pulls Young off of
Cooper.)
Dick: Alright,
enough Young. Let him finish his story.
Young: Fine,
damn. Oh crap sorry. (He looks over at me laughing with his hand
over his mouth.)
Melissa: Alright
let’s let Cooper finish his story.
Cooper is there anything else you wanted to add?
Cooper: Just
that my story is one that needs to be read.
Melissa: I’d
agree with you. All of you have a great
story that deserves to be read. Our time
is almost up, but I want to do a speed round of questions with you guys. I’ll ask a question and you give me one word
to answer it. Ready? (I get a nod from all of them.)
Melissa: Love
Campbell: Kenz
Young: Sex
Dick: Law
Cooper: Emma
Melissa: Favorite band
Young: No need
to even wait for everyone to answer.
It’s Wicked Union, the band that Cooper has playing in his bar. They are amazing.
Cooper: He’s
right.
(Campbell and Dick agree shaking their heads.)
Melissa: Favorite pastime
Campbell: Bar
Young: Sex
Dick: Friends
Cooper: Music
Melissa: Something you have you are proud of. Not your ladies. (They all laugh)
Campbell: My degree
Young: Candy..my car
Dick: My badge
Cooper: My guitar
Melissa: Thank
you guys so much for doing this interview.
I had a fantastic time. I hope
you guys had a good time too. You all
have a hot, emotional, sexy and romantic story to tell and I know everyone who
reads it will agree. A special thank you
to Heather aka your boss lady, for asking me to be a part of this. It is definitely a day I won’t forget. (Who could forget a day filled with this
hotness?) If anyone as any questions,
comments or simply wants to follow Heather, I’ll post her page. http://www.facebook.com/AuthorHeatherDahlgren
