Goodreads asked Louise Cusack:

Where did you get the idea for your most recent book?

Louise Cusack HUSBAND HEEL is the third book in my #HusbandSeries of erotic romance novels, and the main character Louella is the most emotionally repressed of the four girlfriends featured in this series. I'm a seat-of-the-pants writer, so I didn't realize it would be a bodyguard romance until I started writing it, but I did have an inkling that once the lid came off Louella's emotional baggage, she'd be unable to deal with it.

Conversations with my own girlfriends in recent years uncovered the gem of wisdom that "Sometimes you do actually need a man for more than just opening stuck jam jars". If your emotional baggage revolves around sex, chances are that your girlfriends can't help you sort that out! So my idea for Louella was that she had a problem that she absolutely needed a man for, and not just any man. It had to be a man she trusted.

Hunky bodyguard Nick Aston, who readers will remember from book 2, is someone who's earned her trust with weeks of quiet, unobtrusive support. But can she stretch that physical trust into emotional trust?

This book was a rollercoaster in the writing, and reviewers tell me it's a rollercoaster read, so I'm excited to see it release on Amazon on 15 June, and I look forward to hearing what readers think!
