Welcome Kristina Knight author of Famous in a Small Town, a
new Contemporary Romance.
Why did you write
this book?
Famous in a Small Town is the first book in my new small
town series, set in the fictional town of Slippery Rock, Missouri. I wanted to
write about the kind of place where I grew up. I had this idea about what might
happen to a few hometown football heroes, who were now back in their small town
and figuring out what was next for them. And that’s where the characters
basically took over. I’m so excited for this series, not just because of the
location (a small lake town in Missouri) but because the characters are so real
to me. I hope readers fall in love with them, like I did.
What is your favorite
genre to read?
I don’t know that I have a favorite, although I probably
read contemporary romances more than any other. But I love cozy mysteries,
historicals, and I’ve found a renewed interest in memoirs the past few months.
So, I guess my favorite genre is whatever I happen to be reading at this moment
(and right now I’m reading a memoir and a contemporary at the same time!).
Who is your favorite
character from fiction (not including your own)?
There are so many! I adore Mr. Darcy, and I have serious
feelings for Inigo from The Princess
Bride, and I can’t leave out Justin from Diana Palmer’s Long, Tall Texans series. . .I think my
favorite, though, is Jo from Little
Women. I always thought I was a little like her – a little too bookish, a
little tomboyish, a little sarcastic. Although she does speak her mind much
more often than I ever have. Hmm, maybe I need to be more like Jo!
What are you working
on at the moment?
I’m finishing up book 4 in the Slippery Rock series, Levi
and Camden’s book, and I’ll start on a novella for the series in another couple
of weeks – yay, more Slippery Rock books!
What books will we see
from you in coming months?
You’re going to see all the Slippery Rock books! Famous is
the first, and stars Collin Tyler and Savannah Walters. Then in July book two
releases, Rebel in a Small Town, featuring Slippery Rock’s acting sheriff,
James Calhoun and Mara Tyler (Collin’s sister). Then, in September, book 3
releases, Breakup in a Small Town. Book 3 features married-but-on-the-rocks
Adam and Jenny. And then, in December, you’ll get book 4, featuring Levi
Walters (Savannah’s older brother) and Camden Harris, a new arrival to town.
And, I don’t have a release date or a title yet, but Aiden, Adam’s twin, will
get his own novella some time in the fall. He’ll be paired up with Savannah’s
wedding planner. Julia Colson.
Please tell us about
your latest book.
Famous in a Small Town is a contemporary romance with a
friends-to-lovers theme. Savannah is Collin’s best friend’s sister, and is
running from a bit of a scandal. Collin has never run from anything in his
life, so he doesn’t understand A) why Savannah’s back in town or B) why he can’t
stop thinking about a woman he knows won’t be staying around for long. He is
rooted very deeply in Slippery Rock, but he can’t stay away from Savannah….
Book heat level (based on movie ratings): R
Forced to leave Nashville after a scandal, Savannah Walters
has come home to Slippery Rock, Missouri, with a bruised ego and her singing
career in jeopardy. As if that isn’t humiliating enough, on her way into town
she’s rescued by her swoon-worthy childhood crush, Collin Tyler.
His hands are full running the family orchard and dealing
with his delinquent teen sister, so Collin doesn’t need to get involved with
someone as fiery and unpredictable as Savannah. But the intense attraction
between them can’t be denied. And when disaster strikes, they’ll both be
surprised by who’s still standing when the dust settles.

from car crash to fire to meetings with local police–no, she wasn’t a
troublemaker, she was a journalist. Her career took her all over the United
States, writing about everything from a serial killer’s capture to the National
Finals Rodeo. Along the way, she found her very own Knight in Shining Cowboy
Boots and an abiding love for romance novels. And just like the characters from
her favorite books, she’s living her own happily ever after.
