Hello lovelies,

Well, 2024 continued to be horrible as I had to have my littlest dog, Lucy, put to sleep due to renal failure just before Christmas. I did have a nice Christmas with my family but it was certainly a time to remember those who were missing. Here’s hoping that 2025 is an improvement. January’s my birthday month so it had better be good!

It’s my 20^th anniversary of being a published author, which is quite a big deal. I’ve published over 120 projects, sold close to 2 million books, and hit the New York Times and USA Today list more than once. In fact, my last cowboy novella in Here Comes Cowboy Claus with Diana Palmer and Delores Fossen stayed on the NYT monthly paperback list for 2 months—a nice way to end that chapter of my writing career.

I’ve had ups and downs, highs and lows, and all those other writerly cliches happen to me over the past 20 years but I’ve always managed to change course, keep writing, and be resilient. I’m not sure I have the desire or energy to deal with all the current changes so I’m going to keep on doing what I love—writing—and hope you’ll all still read my stuff. I need to appreciate what I’ve done and thank all of you who’ve stuck around.

Thank you.

Onto other things:

I hope you all enjoyed Mr. Totton’s Christmas Miracle. It’s still available to purchase. Next up with be a Kate Pearce Vintage title, How To Seduce A Wife, which is a novella previously released in the anthology Lords of Passion. The next scheduled releases will be in November with Only Rakes Need Apply, but I’m sure I’ll get other things out before that one,

I’m traveling to Las Vegas in May for the Book Lovers Convention, in June I’ll be at the Warminster Book Festival, and in August I’ll be in Stranraer for Authors Invade Scotland. I’d love to see any of you at those events.

Wishing you all a happy and successful 2025.

Kate
