AN INTERVIEW WITH DEBORAH COONTS

Why did you decide to write humor?

I’m not sure I decided to add snark to the Lucky books, specifically to Lucky’s own voice, it just happened that way. When I was a kid, my mouth always got me into trouble. Finally, I’ve found a way to harness the sarcasm for the Forces of Good—or at least in a way not to anger my grandmother. And when Lucky started talking to me, she had a strong dose of sass in her.

The Lucky O'Toole Vegas Adventure series is hard to categorize. Is that by design?

When I set out to write Wanna Get Lucky?, I knew I wanted to write a romp through Las Vegas. I had the characters and the setting but no real understanding of narrative drive. So, I threw a young woman out of a tour helicopter into the middle of the Pirate Show and let the story unfold. A bit of murder to keep the plot moving, some wisecracking and Vegas mischief to make you laugh, and some romance to keep it interesting. A bit of a mash up, but it works.

"More fun than a winning streak in Vegas. Lucky O’Toole is a character with brains, beauty, and a wry sense of humor. Readers will want to meet her again—and soon." - Diane Mott Davidson, New York Times bestselling author

"Deborah Coonts...entrusts the sleuthing to a brainy beauty who sees the lighter side of human folly." - New York Times Book Review

Lucky the hard way. Didn’t think I would like @ first. But more into it couldn’t put it down. Always a twist & turn to keep U reading! Well done-Yogi

Lucky the Hard Way. I have thoroughly enjoyed getting to know Lucky O'Toole and all the other characters in this series. Each book has gotten more intriguing and enjoyable but this one hit all the buttons and held me in its grip! Thanks for the wild ride; can't wait to do it all again with next one!

Lucky the hard way. The hard way was the part that I couldn't put it down. Loved loved, loved it. Keep them coming.

Lucky The Hard Way. Another great book in the Lucky series. Thanks

Great series!!. Really enjoying the series. Just the right tone with smart dialogue, romance (not too explicit - thank you!), and action. Novella 4 helped me with at least one question mark - a character who popped in without an introduction.

Love Lucky. So happy to read the latest in Lucky's chaotic life. This installment is as good (if not better) as we've come to expect. Love the whole series.
