Interview: Victoria James along with Holly & Quinn (A Risk Worth Taking Blog Tour)



I would like to welcome Holly Carrington and Quinn Manning from A Risk Worth Taking and the author Victoria James to What I’m Reading.

How are you guys doing today?

Victoria:  Great, thanks so much for having us, here Melody!  I’m so happy to visit with Holly and Quinn again.

Holly:  Me too!  And I’ve been meaning to thank Victoria for finally giving us the happily ever after of my dreams.

Quinn:  Right.  You didn’t have to put us through the ringer though, Vic.

Victoria: *Grins sheepishly*  Sorry about that.


Well, I’m super excited to have you guys are here today.

First off, Victoria what makes Holly and Quinn special?

Victoria: Well, Holly is my kind of gal-she’s stubborn, smart, and driven.  And really, with everything that happened to her, I needed to give her a man that was strong enough to help her.   And Quinn turned out to be even a bigger charmer and sweetheart than I had originally thought.

Now Holly and Quinn, I was wondering what was your first impression of each after 10 years?

Quinn:  Holly was more beautiful than when she left Red River all those years ago.  A hell of a lot more stubborn than I remember, but…

Holly: *Laughs*   Quinn was just as I remembered.  Maybe a little older, with a grey hair here and there…

Holly, so how is motherhood suiting you?

Holly:  I love it.  It’s more rewarding and fulfilling than I ever would have thought.  And each day I love, Ella more and more.  I feel so blessed.

I know that renovation can be a trial on any type of relationship, how did you guys not kill each through the process?

Quinn:  It wasn’t easy, lemme tell you.  There were moments-like that whole counter-top and basement flood that I thought I was going to lose my cool.  Luckily, I had a solution to that problem.  *Grins*

Holly:  *Shakes head, smiling*

Victoria I was wondering if there is any future plans for Jake and Evan finding the love of their lives?

Victoria:  Absolutely!  Jake is currently finding his road to happily-ever-after with Claire.  But let me tell you, this has been quite a ride, with a lot more bumps than even I had envisioned.  Their story will be released this summer.  Evan’s gone through some life-changing events as well-and his story will be out late this year.

Quinn:  Really?  What’s going on?

Victoria:  Sorry, can’t say!

Now the finally question. So, Holly, Quinn, and Victoria can you each share in your own words why readers should read A Risk Worth Taking?

Holly: Well, I must say, Quinn’s pretty fabulous in Victoria’s book.  So if you love a man that can be strong and tender you’ll want to read this.  Reading back, I have to admit, he’s a total hottie J

Quinn: That’s very sweet. *Kisses Holly* I thought Victoria did a great job highlighting everything Holly had been through, and showing how strong of a woman she is.  Holly is the ideal.

Victoria: Aren’t they sweet!?  Okay, well, I think A Risk Worth Taking is a story about finding the inner strength to go on, even after dealing with staggering loss.  Finding the courage to love again and to give love a second chance.

Thank you guys for coming talking to my readers. Is there anything else you guys would like to share?

Victoria:  If you love small town romance, with lots of heart and passion, I think you’ll like this series.  Red River is a town that’s filled with larger-than-life personalities and people you’d like to sit down and have a cup of coffee with.  Holly and Quinn are close to my heart-people I look up to and admire.

Thank you so much for having us here, Melody!  It was a fun interview J
