In case my battery is low or dies, I have the print book. I try not to go anywhere without one or more of your books. Thank you for keeping me reading. Also, since my birthday is Sunday, it would be a great present. Thanks for all of your books, not just the RRs, BTCs, WWBs, Julie, Mercy books. I have and read every book you’ve written.

    Lorelei-you don’t understand it, you already gave us your love, with your books. You couldn’t possibly touch all of our hearts as you do without putting your love of writing into your books. You and your characters are a part of my family. Your characters are on my mind throughout each and every day. Kinda like wondering, hmm, wondering what Cord is doing today…. Thank you Lorelei my life wouldn’t be nearly as fun without you and yours.


  68. Renee M said:

    Thank you


  76. Tabatha Scott said:

    Congratulations you more than deserve all of the wonderful recognition that you receive. I have read all of the Rough Rider stories but Ben’s and am looking foward to reading this one. You have a way of making readers addicted to your characters and I absolutely love it, my family on the other hand are not so thrilled because I get so engrossed in them I do not want to do anything else until I have finished the book.

Waiting impatiently for Tell’s and Kyle’s books. My friend and I have a bet on Tell’s love interest, not saying who I THINK it is but her initial isn’t far from his in the alphabet. Hope I’m right Β£20 riding on it. Congrats again well deserved sucess. Liv

  136. Anna said:

    Congratulations!!! Loved, Loved, Loved, the book!!!! Looking forward to Tells story!!!


  137. Elizabeth M said:

    You can never have too many people congratulate you, right?? 8^D So, I add my congratulations to the ever-growing list!! It is well-deserved! I always anxiously await each new Rough Riders book. The books are sexy and fun, but I think the reason I keep coming back is because of the way you write the McKay family. I so enjoy the family interactions, and it is such fun to catch up with characters from previous books!

    I had Cowboy Casanova preordered, and read it as soon as it downloaded to my iPod. Ben was awesome, and, again, the family interaction was so great. We’re all going to be very sad the day this series ends!! Thankfully, we still have a few books to go (at least, that I know of;)!

    Have a very Merry Christmas and a happy and healthy New Year! Again, congratulations!!


  138. Heather E said:

    Wow! What an exciting week for you! And you completely deserve it! Hope you go out and buy yourself a nice pair of boots to celebrate!!!

    I love, love, love the Rough Riders series and the Blacktop Cowboys! I’ve read them all and can’t get enough. I also LOVE me some Tony Martinez in your Julie Collins series. I’m moving on to Mercy now!

    Wishing you a very joyous and Merry Christmas- but it looks like you are already well on your way!

    Heather E.


  139. Barb Hill-Kidd (Barb in Indy) said:

    So proud of you Lorelei! So proud of your loyal readers because let’s face it they love the books and continue to buy when money is tight and at this time of year choices are aplenty. I think one key to your success is that you do not rely on a “form book” you know what I mean, just look at some of the other long lasting series, very few are stand alone books and what I love is you don’t spend a quarter of the book catching us up. You just write the characters story. If you insert tidbits about past characters then better for us.

    Wishing you and yours the best this Holiday Season.


  140. Cathy M said:

    That’s wonderful news, Lorelei, big hugs and congrats. I have Cowboy Casanova as my Christmas treat and will be downloading it on Christmas Eve. Yah hoo!

    Wishing you a very special holiday. Hope Santa brings you everything you asked for.

Read CC in one night — course I hadda stay up late to do it and was a little bleary eyed at work the next day. Wasn’t really a problem, though, because all I thought about was Ben/Bennett anyway!

    Loved Cowboy Casanova!!
    Really I love reading all of the RR Series. Reading any of the books in the RR series always makes me want to move to Wyoming and find me a “McKay” man, lol
    Wishing you and your family a Very Merry Christmas!!!


  222. Debbie said:

    I love your books! I started one for kicks and giggles for something a little different and got hooked. One of my best friends was checking out my ereader and stumbled on to one of your books. Now she is hooked too! I look forward to when your books come out!


  223. Brandi Jones said:

    Love your books! I’ve been hooked on your cowboys since Long Hard Ride! I recommended them to my sister-in-law, who claimed she was NOT a reader, & she most certainly is one now! Thanks so much πŸ™‚

  227. Connie L. said:

    I loved CC. Can’t wait for Kissin’ Tell. Love the changes to the web site. Have a quick question though, are we going to find out what is going on between Ginger, Lobby & Joely? I was wondering because she seemed really upset when she saw Ginger & Libby meeting in the bar without her.


  228. Alexis said:

    That’s fantastic news! Congrats! I was hooked from the first book. I wasn’t much into Westerns until I read Long Hard Ride.


  229. Renee Benge said:

    Thanks for the contest. You know that I love everything you do. I soooo look forward to release day and always devour your books immediately. Can you write a little faster?? LOL just kidding. Can’t wait for your next masterpiece…and hope to see you soon!!

  232. Patty Dornbusch said:

    Lori,
    Happy Holidays to you and your family. Congratulations on being on the Best Sellers lists. I loved reading Cowboy Casanova.
    They say there are authors and then there are storytellers. You are one of the best Storyteller’s in my opinion, Romance or Mystery. Looking forward to more stories from you.
    Patty


  233. Amanda B. said:

    Congrats, you deserve it, all of your books are amazing!!!

  234. Mari said:

    Wow! That’s quite an achievement! Congratulations and Merry Christmas!


  235. Deanne said:

    Congratulations! I look forward to the next book!


  236. J. Nez said:

    I’d be celebrating too with such a mind boggling accomplishment. I know many great writers who never make it, which only proves you’ve got that extra special sumpthin. We fans always tell you how wonderful & talented of a writer you are, but I bet it feels good when its backed up in book sales and your name is on the NY Times Bestsellers List (again).

    Seeing that your Cowboy books (especially RR) are so beloved hopefully spurs you on to write more and more of this genre. Of course, the downside is that it might take time away from Lori Armstrong. DARN! If only you didn’t need sleep nor a life….LOL, just kidding. We wouldn’t begrudge you anything seein’ as you bring so much enjoyment, escape, erotica, etcetera. etcetera (ran outta E’s) to our lives. It’s a mystery how you get so much done as it is!

    Anyway, I will continue to be one of your ever faithful fans in the coming new year. Not that I have a choice really, since I crave your writing more than I do chocolate. But no matter how bad my “Anderson Addiction” or my “James Jones” drives me insane, I promise to never ever be one of those idiots who tries to bully you (or any author) into writing faster. Bribery, however, is a different story, LOL. I hope you have a very Merry Christmas as well as a Happy (& Productive) New Year. πŸ™‚
