Lone Star Heiress Interview

How exciting to have Ivy Feagan, heroine from Lone Star Heiress, a June 2014 release from Love Inspired Historical Romance, written by Winnie Griggs.

1.  Ivy, tell me the most interesting thing about you.
Well, I can’t say as there is much about me to interest other folk.  Except recently.  I’ve just learned I might have an inheritance waiting for me over in Turnabout.  It’s all real mysterious - I don’t even know what this inheritance is, but I sure intend to head there and find out.

2.  What do you do for fun?
I love to garden.  There’s just something about planting things and watching them grow that’s so satisfying, don’t you think? And I’m good at it, if I do say so myself.  Nana Dovie says I have the greenest thumb she ever did see.

3.  What do you put off doing because you dread it?
I don’t believe in putting things off, especially those things that you dread.  As Nana Dovie always says, the sooner started the sooner you can put to rest.

4.  What are you afraid of most in life?
Ending up alone

5.  What do you want out of life?
To be accepted for who I am.  But the gossips and rumor mongers in my hometown have made that nigh on impossible.

6.  What is the most important thing to you?
The question is ‘who’ not ‘what’ and that would be Nana Dovie.  She took me in and raised me when I was orphaned as an infant.  And more importantly, she has always loved me as her own.  I’d do anything for her.

7.  If you could change one thing about yourself, what would it be?
I’d like to have known my parents.

8.  Do you have a pet? If so, what is it and why that pet?
Actually I have two critters that are special to me - my dog Rufus and my mule Jubal.  I’m taking both of them with me on this trip to Turnabout.  Not only will they be good company, but they’ll provide a measure of protection since I’ll be making this trip using a backwoods shortcut on my own.

9. Can you tell us a little interesting tidbit about the time period you live in?

Well I don’t know much about what goes on outside our little town of Nettles Gap.  But I do know that back at the first of the year Utah officially became the 45^th state in this fine country.  And I heard tell of a big earthquake that happened over St. Louis way last month.
