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!

Hey Kristen! You've said that most of the houses in the Rock Chick books were places where you or your friends actually lived so with RC Reawakening about to come out I was wondering...do you actually know someone that lives in a castle inspired house in Colorado? Because that would Rock! Also will there be a Rock Chick fiesta when you're in Maryland in February at Nora's store? That would really Rock!!!

Hi Kristen! I know everyone is super excited about Bounty and the new Fantasyland book (I am, too!), but I'm anticipating the third and final book in the the Magdalene series. Is Coert's story on your writing schedule yet? I'm dying to find out what's going on with him and his girl and can't wait for it to come out! I love the fact that all of those characters are in their 40's! Thanks, and keep up the good work!
