Today
we’re joined by Tess Gallagher from Second
Chance Option, the first book in romance author Elizabeth Spaur’s Gridiron Knights
series.
What was your life like
before your author started pulling your strings?
It was routine. I spend a lot of time at my veterinary
practice. I’ve been taking over more and more for my father since he’s started
teaching more. When I’m not working, I’m spending time with my three younger
brothers. They’re American Ninja Warrior fanatics. We built a course in my
backyard to workout and spend more time together.
What’s the
one trait you like most about yourself?
I’m reliable. If anyone in my family or small-town
needs help, I’m there.
What do you
like least about yourself?
I may be a genius, but I can’t seem to figure out the
meaning of the word “no.”
What is the
strangest thing your author has had you do or had happen to you?
I’m competing in American Ninja Warrior. Practicing
with my little brothers is one thing, but actually going on the show. When she
told me I was asked to compete in the qualifiers I thought she was crazy.
Do you
argue with your author? If so, what do you argue about?
Sometimes I argue with her. She wanted to bring my
big brother in to help out when I was overwhelmed by responsibilities. I didn’t
want to drag him away from his life because there was a little too much on my
plate temporarily. She keeps making me ask for help. I’m the one who’s supposed
to help everyone else.
What is
your greatest fear?
It’s a toss-up between being laughed at and being alone
in a hospital.
What makes
you happy?
Relaxing on the couch with Cade and our animals.
If you
could rewrite a part of your story, what would it be? Why?
If I were going to rewrite anything, it would be the
way I treat my friends in the beginning. I wish I’d been a better friend to
them from the start.
Of the other characters in
your book, which one bugs you the most? Why?
Brian Gill, Senior. He’s been the boogey man in my
life since I was a little girl. He’s a bully who doesn’t like to lose and tries
to intimidate anyone who threatens his sense of superiority.
Of the other characters in
your book, which one would you love to trade places with? Why?
I sometimes want to trade places with my friend
Delilah. She’s not afraid to say what she means and tells it like it is. I wish
I had her courage.
Tell us a little something

was twelve and writing it since she was thirteen. She loves writing stories

What's next for you?
Cade and I got our happily ever after in this book.
Now we get to spend out lives together and watch our friends find their own
happy endings. And pets. I won’t rest until all the amazing animals in my
mother’s animal shelter have their forever homes.
