Love,
LYRICALLY CRAFTED.
Thanks for visiting my site — I’m so happy you’re here. I’m a lifelong bookworm who fell in love with the romance genre first as a reader, and who still loves reading and studying and learning from romances of all subgenres. Getting to write romances of my own for all of you has been a gift of my life, and I hope you’ll find a book of mine that moves you!
-Love, Kate

My Story
BEGAN
I STARTED READING THE ROMANCE GENRE AT A TIME IN MY LIFE WHERE I NEEDED TO REDISCOVER JOY AND COMFORT AND A FEELING OF COMMUNITY. SO MANY OF THESE BOOKS GAVE THAT TO ME. AS A WRITER IN THIS GENRE, ALL I'VE EVER WANTED TO DO IS GIVE READERS THAT SAME FEELING THROUGH MY OWN BOOKS.
