Annie Carrasco asked Lori Foster:

Hi Lori!! Do you have any books or writing anything where the hero wasn't a "hero" first? Or maybe a typical hero figure... Or maybe where the bad guy turns good or wasn't bad in the first place? Those are few and far between but I tend to like an under dog! Also, do you know your entire story before you write it or do you make it up as you go?

Lori Foster Good morning, Annie!
I make up the stories as I go along. Keeps it interesting that way, especially for me, since I bore easily. ;-) If I knew the whole story beforehand it'd be like reading a book I'd just read.
I've redeemed characters before, but usually only as secondary characters without giving them a book of their own.
One exception might be Leese, in Under Pressure, from the upcoming Body Armor series. His story will be out in February. Leese first appeared in the Ultimate series. :-) You can see more about him here: http://lorifoster.com/connected-books...
