Hi Kasie! Sorry I’m asking another question, but I just love your books so much! So, I read Lucky in Love on vacation, and let me just say that it was my absolute favorite book of yours! I was wondering... How did you come up with the idea of Maddie (Maddie is actually my name too) winning the lottery? It as such a fun book and I just wondered how it came to be! Thank you for answering my last question, it meant a lot

Kasie West That is so nice to hear! I'm glad you loved this book! I've always been fascinated with the idea of people coming into a large amount of money and the statistic that something like 90% of them spend it ALL within the first five years!! Crazy, right? So yeah, I wanted to give an 18 year old a chance to win tons of money in a book and explore how she would face that. It was fun to research and fun to write. Glad you enjoyed it. And I'm happy you share a name with one of my characters.
