Even as she pursued degrees in Textile Technology, Organizational Leadership and finally, Adult Education, Rhonda McKnight’s love for books and desire to write stories was always in the back of her mind and in the forefront of her heart. Rhonda loves reading and writing stories that touch the heart of women through complex plots and interesting characters in crisis. She writes from the comfort of her South Carolina home with black tea, potato chips and chocolate on hand. At her feet sits a snappy mixed breed dog. She can be reached at her website at www.rhondamcknight.com and on social media at www.facebook.com/booksbyrhonda www.twitter.com/rhondamcknight www.instagram.com/authorrhondamcknight

Quotes by Rhonda McKnight  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“She was just kind and genuine. Pure, even. I hated that her good heartedness and naivety were going to cost her so dearly because I was going to bust up her marriage and take her husband if it were the last thing I did.”
Rhonda McKnight, An Inconvenient Friend

“Do the things I couldn’t. The women before you could only dream their dreams.”
Rhonda McKnight, The Thing About Home: A Lowcountry Novel

“The days have been dark, and the times are hard, but there has always been love, even before Freedom. Find love and keep it. It’s the only thing that no man or woman can take away.”
Rhonda McKnight, The Thing About Home: A Lowcountry Novel

Rhonda McKnight I think this picture has more of my smile. I did get everything to the publishers last week and I sent my partial to the agent yesterday. Nerve wracking. Now I just have to finish two papers for school and then I'm on vacation for a week. Hallelujah! Thought about coming to Arizona to go to the Grand Canyon. I love those views in your homestate.

Michelle Nice profile picture. I liked the old one, too. Did you get everything to the publisher without a hitch?
