Hi Kristen I am just curious how often do you get a chance to read a book? What interests you in new Authors.....ie, friend referral,top ten book list,goodreads? I have a few favorites and you're by far the author I compare other authors to. I love that you have humor,love,mystery/crime,naughtiness in most all of your books and I really love that the woman in your books seem like real people not just a fantasy!

Well, I don't get to read often and that stinks. I started getting into some books this year and then got into writing and lost my reading mojo.
But usually it's recommendations or things folks say around and about on social media that get me curious so I download.
This brought me to Jenn Bennett's Roaring Twenties series (the first was really good, I didn't think she could top it but the second is EXCELLENT - I haven't read the third yet but I have it).
Also Mia Sheridan's ARCHER'S VOICE (love the way romance is going with these AWESOME characters that 10-15 years ago would never be published - Archer is amazing and so freaking deserves to have his story read) and Alessandra Torre's BLACK LIES (stick with it, you might not want to but trust me - I was thrown, and blown away). And last Joey W. Hill's NATURAL LAW (the best book I've read in ages, superb writing, great story, a BDSM erotica with an alpha-sub).
So I'm gonna stick with this scenario because it's leading me to great books!

You're books would have been in tatters, had they not been e-books. My love is the Colorado series. also the Burg, unfinished heroes and Magdalene are faves. Your biggest danish fan ☺. One of the things I love, is the ages of everyone. And the lots and lots of pages to read! I am impressed with how much you manage to do. Along with writing, you are out meeting rock chicks. How do you make sure not to burn out?

Hello Kristen, I just finished the first 4 books from the Colorado Mountain series. Before starting Book 5, just wonder the February is the same one from the Book 1 of the Burg series? ? Also want to tell you I love all your books I read including the unfinished hero series. Top 2 I like are the Creed and the Gamble. Will always remember them.

Hi Kristen,I adore your books and I just love these fabulous characters you created.I "felt" the story of Lauren(sweet dreams)the most.It's funny because on the first look we have nothing in common.Where do you find inspiration for such diversity in characters and how many of them were copy from your friends and family? Does Lauren exist in your life?If so give her a big hug I SO want to be her when I grow up...xo
