Book Tour Launch for
Happily Ever Afters
By Rachel Magee
Interview with the Author
1. What is your motivation behind HAPPILY EVER AFTERS?
I actually came up with the idea for Happily Ever Afters while I was on a girls’ trip. Several of my friends at the time weren’t married and there were a few handsome bachelors at the resort. I started wondering what would happen if two people who didn’t live anywhere near each other fell in love.
2. What do you hope readers take with them after they’ve read it?
I’ll talk about this in more detail during the tour, but basically this is a story of hope. My wish is for readers to walk away with a renewed spirit of hope and a belief that happily-ever-afters do exist. But sometimes you have to fight for both.
3. Do you have a favorite scene that you can share with us?
One of my favorite scenes is from the second half of the book when Lainey, the heroine, ends up at a karaoke bachelorette party with the antagonist. Pretty much everything goes wrong for our dearly beloved heroine, but it shows a lot of Lainey’s personality in the middle of a pretty funny situation. It might even make you want to grab a microphone and belt out your favorite song. Admittedly, I did when I was writing it.
4. If you could sum the book up in one sentence, what would you say?
Lainey doesn’t plan on falling in love with a man she meets on vacation, but when her life falls apart, love might be the only thing that can save her.
5. Share something about you that is unique - maybe about how/where you write.
Here’s a fun fact: I like to write standing up. It helps me think. The best place to do this is in my kitchen with my computer on the counter. And if I’m standing at my computer in the kitchen, I always stand on one leg. Picture tree pose in yoga. My kids call it flamingo style.

About the Author
Rachel Magee wrote her first novel when she was twelve and entered it into a contest for young author/illustrators. Unfortunately, the judges weren’t impressed with her stick figures. So she dropped the dream of becoming a world famous illustrator and stuck to spinning stories. When she’s not busy working on her latest book, she loves to travel with her family and friends. By far, her favorite destination is the beach, which tends to work its way into most of her stories. Between vacations, you can find her at home in The Woodlands, TX with her wonderful husband, their two adventurous kids and a couple of spirited pets, all of whom share Rachel’s love of the ocean. Well, except the cat and dog. They’re both afraid of water. Find out more about what Rachel has been up to at rachelmageebooks.com.
