Arielle Rae Aguilar asked Kristen Ashley:

Hi Kristen! I was wondering, at what age did you start reading romance novels? (I started when I was around 12-14yo hahaha)

Kristen Ashley Hey there, darlin',

You know, I don't know for certain but I think it was around 12-13. I read my mom's Harlequin Presents.

No, not true, I DEVOURED them. So much, she used to take me to the library all the time to get more. Probably read 3-6 a week.

Eventually started stealing her racier ones and reading them on the sly in bed under my covers with a flashlight. I think she knew, since I hid them under my bed and the cat peed on one (my devotion to romance is extreme, even with that smell, I finished that book!).

So I started super early. Lucky me!
