Interview with the heroine from Memory of Murder by Ramona Richards:
1. Lindsey, tell me the most interesting thing about you.
Wow, that’s hard to pinpoint – I don’t think I’m all that special. I did change my name after I left home. My parents thought it was cute to name us for months. My sisters are April and June. We had a brother, who was supposed to be “May,” but they named him Mark. I was July, until I was eighteen. Since then, I’ve been Lindsey.
2. What do you do for fun?
Same thing I do for work . . . Cook! I love to cook. I’ve been in the food industry since my first job at sixteen. That’s why I went to Chicago, to become a chef.
3. What do you put off doing because you dread it?
Cleaning house.
4. What are you afraid of most in life?
Oh…I used to declare I wasn’t afraid of anything. But now that I’ve found my sisters again, I think it would be losing my family. Again.
5. What do you want out of life?
My biggest dream has been to own my own restaurant. It’s what has driven me for years now.
6. What is the most important thing to you?
Holding people close. My background is . . . um . . . sketchy. I’ve lost a lot of people in my life. I was even separated from my sisters for years. Now I just want everyone to stay around.
7. Do you read? If so, what is your favorite type of book to read?
I used to read a lot of suspense, but after this I think I’ll stick to romances!
8. If you could change one thing about yourself, what would it be?
Physically…I’d be taller. Sometimes being this short is quite inconvenient, especially in a restaurant. Otherwise, I think I’d like to be able to trust people sooner.
9. Do you have a pet? If so, what is it and why that pet?
No pets…yet. My days at the restaurant are pretty long. It would be unfair to an animal. 10 If you could travel back in time, where would you go and why?
I don’t know that I would. It took me a long time to get where I am, and I really like it here. I don’t want to be anywhere else.
I must say I don’t mind July as a name at all. It sounds sweet.

I can see changing your name from July. I had a hair stylist who wanted to name her kids after the seasons. Her first is Summer. Her second was supposed to be Spring but another friend stole the name so she named her daughter April instead. She gave up after that and went with something different for her son, Brenton.
Would love to win your book. I love the LI Suspense line of books.
😀 Smiles & Blessings,

I think Lindsey is a much prettier name than July. So you love to cook an you move to Chicago to become a chef. Great interview Lindsey with Margaret. I hope you will enter me in your giveaway. Great book and cover can’t wait to read it. God bless you.

I can see changing your name – who ever heard of someone named July. I love to cook too. But since my husband retired, he has taken over as we both like to cook.
I loved this interview. Would love to win your book and review it.
