Release Day is here for THE TOUCH OF LOVE!!
I'm thrilled to say that my new novel, THE TOUCH OF LOVE, is finally out for everyone!!
Writing this story was truly as if I was writing the story I was always meant to tell. It's as if all paths from prior novels were leading to this one. I'd always wanted to write a love story trying to survive WW2. But I didn't think I could do it. Really. It seemed a daunting, insurmountable mountain I'd never peak. For years, I put it off as a pipe-dream for another day - one which I honestly didn't think I'd actually get to.
But like all hikes, it starts with the first step. So, I started to write it. And the story flowed like a faucet of inspiration which wouldn't shut off. I kept writing and writing because I was so engrossed in the characters. I loved them as if they're real. And I wanted to stay in the world I'd created. But then it had to end. And when the final words were written, I sat and smiled - not because of having just completed another novel. But because it was the ending which all of the characters deserved.
I have a rule when I write: I write for myself. If I can't move, entertain, or inspire myself, then how could I ever hope to do it in others? And when editing this novel multiple times, I found myself constantly moved, entertained, and inspired. Still, on the 3rd or 4th read, I'm finding myself both laughing and in tears. I did it. I loved writing TOUCH, and I missed it. I won't say I "finally" completed what I set out to accomplish ... because, honestly, each one of my prior novels has done similar things. I love them all. But with TOUCH, I did more than write a novel - I completed a goal, and I created a world that I still miss writing.
THE TOUCH OF LOVE is available today, both in ebook and paperback, on Amazon HERE: https://amzn.to/3qxoIL4

The Touch of Love is now on Pre-Order!!!
I'm so excited to announce that my new novel, The Touch of Love is now available for pre-order!!!
Isn't the cover beautiful?
The story is such a compelling one that this easily became my longest story I've written to date. Actually, there was so much story that it's two! The book involves alternating, intertwined stories - one is a love story trying to survive WW2 and the other is a modern day love story. Fans of romance, historical romance, historical fiction, and contemporary fiction will all love it.
To pre-order on Amazon, click HERE.
It releases April 27th for everyone to (finally) enjoy ... can't wait!!!

I Finished writing The Touch of Love!
Wow - it's been a whole year since I updated this blog. Time flies! What have I been doing during this last year, if not copiously writing on this blog? Writing my new novel, THE TOUCH OF LOVE ... and I'm thrilled to say I'm done writing it! Well ... at least the first draft.
This is the last of the 5 books in my Senses of Love series. It's also the longest, for good reason. I don't have a release date yet, but wanted to let everyone know that the series will be completed. And for everyone who has read the first 4 books in the series, THANK YOU - and you will find it very rewarding. Each book is a stand alone, but if you've read the other books then this one will be even better :-)

An Aroma of Love is out TODAY!
My new novel, An Aroma of Love, is now out! It's a heart-warming, feel-good love story set in Jackson Hole, Wyoming during the holidays. Available in ebook and paperback on Amazon.
It's the newest book in my "Senses of Love" series, and the books can be read in any order. I absolutely loved writing this story and characters. At the end, I was really sad because it meant I didn't get to spend time with the characters. I hope you all enjoy it as much as I did.

A Taste of Love is now available!!!
I'm so excited! My new romance novel A TASTE OF LOVE is now available!
Love is the sweetest adventure. But when Nikki must choose between two men, will either be the recipe for love?
I had so much fun writing this book. Even reading it back several times, I was laughing, smiling, and crying happy tears.
I hope you all enjoy it, and thanks SO MUCH to everyone who has emailed me, reached out on social media, or reviewed my novels - it's more motivating than you even know.
Pick up a copy here: Buy on Amazon
Happy reading,
Kyle

Great News - Book 3 is Written!
I've got great news! I just finished writing book #3 in my clean romance series. It's entitled A Taste of Love - someone even already set up the Goodreads page!
I can't wait for everyone to read it. It's funny, romantic, and will be the longest of my "Senses of Love" series. The books in this series can be read in any order. And currently, the prior 2 books The Sound of Love and The Sight of Love are just 99 cents!
I've worked hard to try to have each book in the series be totally different in plot and tone from each other. This third book definitely is the most different - it'll be a lighthearted, fun read. But still meaningful, romantic, and inspirational.
More info - including the cover reveal and release date - to come very soon!
Stay healthy and happy reading!

THE SIGHT OF LOVE is now available!
Hey everyone! Thanks for all your support thru the years with my books! The messages, reviews, and emails are greatly appreciated and motivating.
I wanted to just mention that I have a new novel which is now available: The Sight of Love.
I love all of my novels for different reasons. But I really hope that you're each moved by this new book. It tells the story of Ethan and Rose, as their beautiful love story is painted over the course of a lifetime. If you love the cover, then you'll love discovering just how symbolic it really is of the characters and story.
Also, thanks to everyone who loved my other book that I released just last month - The Sound of Love. I absolutely love that story. It's based on a real experience. I'm releasing these two books back-to-back because I wrote them at the same time, even though they're very, very different stories.
And also, whoever already added into goodreads my next book in this series, A Taste of Love - that made me laugh. Really. Awesome. But I'm still writing it! It should be out this year. I'll take the fact that someone added the book already as a compliment, that you've enjoyed my other books :-)
Happy reading!
