edit data

Kate McWilliams is a lifelong storyteller and unapologetic romance fan who relishes in cozy nights, happy endings, and the magic of a good love story.

Kate lives in Pennsylvania, dreaming up stories and perfecting the art of a well-timed nap.

Quotes by Kate McWilliams (?)

“There was so much to relearn about each other. It was a strange space to be in. To feel so connected to someone, but at the same time be filled with such wonder. Back then, I loved this girl with all of my nineteen-year-old heart. But there was over a decade of each other’s lives we missed. Years of growing and becoming who we were, and I wanted to catch up on all of it. I had no reason to know that I could still love her, still want her like I did back then. But I knew it anyway. Deep in my bones, I knew this like I knew my own soul.”
― Kate McWilliams, Light in the Dark
