An amazing story! Definitely a keeper.
A must read. A good page turner.
A enjoyable read. An average book.
A book that has flaws and is hard to finish.
Terrible and couldn't finish it.

INTERVIEW
1. I know you get asked this question over and over but can you tell us a little about yourself? Maybe something juicy. ;)
Ok my name is Lola, I was named after a song (the Barry Manilow one). I am married with three beautiful children and I live in Southern California.
Something juicy, well Shhh (don’t my husband) I have secret a girl crush on Pam, from True Blood! Is that juicy enough? LOL
2. When did you first start writing? Are you a full time author or do you do it on the side?
I was twelve when I wrote my first story and amazingly, I still have it. Anytime I need a good laugh I read those stories. They were full of mistakes and the main characters always died but I love them. That was also the time I started watching soap operas so a lot of the story lines mimicked those of All My Children. LOL
I am only a part-time author but I plan to become a full-time author. This is not a hobby it’s my passion!
3. How long did it take you to write Bound to Remember?
3. How long did it take you to write Bound to Remember?
Can you believe it took me a month? I was in the middle of editing another book that I wrote and that book took months to write when the main character of Bound to Remember, Toni, just came to me. I stopped editing the other book and started typing Bound to Remember and a month later, I was done.
4. Try to describe your book in one sentence?
A girl (Toni) that cannot remember her past because of a magic spell meets and falls in love with someone that unknowingly brings her back to her past. Whew, that was almost a run-on…
5. What do you think makes a story great?
I personally think it character development makes a story great. I mean when the author makes the character (s) real and likeable you almost feel like you know them personally. That’s when it’s a great story!
6. Did you do a lot of research for your book or did the story just come to you?
I did have to research places and certain things but the character came first and the story shortly followed. I mostly researched details.
7. What are you currently working on?
I currently working on the next book in the Spellbound Series, Unbound that picks up were Bound to Remember left off. That should be out this winter.
8. Is there anything that I didn't cover that you would like to talk about or say to your potential readers?
Yes, I have another book called Fates Design that is the start of another series. Fates Design should be available on Amazon, Barnes and Noble and Smashwords by the end of November or Beginning of December. Fates Design is about twin sisters that go on a vacation to Italy and both love and disaster happens to them. Fate’s Design is the book I was editing when Bound to Remember came to me.
