Behind the ScenesKrista KedrickKrista was born and raised in Nebraska.  Her first years were spent on a ranch near the Stinkin' Water Creek in Chase County with her family raising cattle, lambs and chickens and stirring up trouble.  After spending several childhood years in Colorado and Kansas her family returned to make Nebraska their home.Her light-hearted take on the world splashes the pages of her novels creating a wonderful mix of seriousness and humor.  And living in small communities has given her the inside view of small town people -their wholesomeness, kindness and appreciation of the little things in life.  These one-of-a-kind people are the heart of her characters.She stumbled into broadcasting when her friend interviewed her on his show and a love for the microphone bloomed into a weekly broadcast of news and humor as a co-host for the online show @Random.Krista makes her home in Nebraska with her husband, two daughters and basset hound where she loves to work in her yard, which supports her vivid settings in her novels.

Doin' The Happy Dance:-)

I AM SO EXCITED RIGHT NOW! Sorry for the yelling, lol, but I am just so ridiculously happy at the moment that I just can't help it. I was just about to head off to bed and decided to see how "Zane" was doing one last time before morning. To my surprise the book is now #1 in Western Romance Bestsellers on Amazon AND #81 in Contemporary Romance Bestsellers!!! Ah! This is just... I don't even have the words to really express how absolutely thrilled I am right now. I just want to thank all the readers out there because this truly would have never happened if it weren't for you! I hope y'all enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it:-) Now I'm going to attempt to calm myself down enough to get some sleep because I have to be up very early in the morning, lol. Sweet dreams and happy reading!

It's Writing Time!

Okay, so I don't know if many of you know this or not but I hit a little snag with Norah's story... Well, I guess it's more than a little snag if you have to come up with a whole new plot and toss out everything you've done so far:-) But anyway, I've been brainstorming away and I think I have finally come up with how her and Chase's story is going to play out! Yay! I haven't actually started writing yet but I did do my outline (which is a first for me because normally I just start writing the story and then do the outline). I'm very excited to get started on this and I hope you guys are excited to see what's going to happen! I promise I'll keep you posted on how things are going and I may even share some teasers with you along the way:-)

A Big Thanks!

I just wanted to say "Thank You!" to everyone who downloaded a copy of When the Heart Falls during its free promo! And, of course, I also want to thank everyone who has purchased a copy of that and my new book "Zane" which received its first 5 star review on Amazon over the weekend! Both books are in the top 20 for Western Romance on Amazon and I really have you all to thank for that (When the Heart Falls is currently #20 and Zane is #6--ah!)! So thank you, thank you, thank you! Happy reading!

Happy Labor Day!

I hope everyone has a great day! The weather here isn't that great so we'll be spending our day indoors, but that's okay with me:-) Just having the extra day off to spend some quality time with my husband and son is all I can ask for. Happy Labor Day and I'll talk to y'all soon!
