About the Author
Kate Patrick, Author |
Kate Patrick grew up in the
South. She can’t recall a time in her life when she didn’t love to read. She
remembers going to the library as a child where she devoured biographies and Nancy
Drew mysteries. Her love of reading has continued into adulthood, but it is hot
romance that she loves to write! While in high school and college, she and her
sister began to write romantic stories about girls that met their dream guys
who fell instantly in love with them. Even these early manuscripts were spicy
enough that the need to “hide” these notebooks was a high priority when leaving
the house!
Writing took a backseat to a
teaching career, marriage, and motherhood, though books were constant companions.
Love stories became a favorite, and began to take the place of mysteries more
and more. About three years ago, the idea of writing was rekindled. Now, you
can find her late at night typing away by the blue glow of her laptop screen.
She and her husband live on the
Gulf Coast with
their son and three quirky Pomeranians. When not writing or reading, Kate loves
to sing, dance, and watch romantic movies, side-splitting comedies, and crime
dramas. Spending time connecting with family and friends is an important
priority for her as well.

Will
Charlotte and Reed find… Love Beyond the Curve?
Love Beyond the Curve Excerpt
#16
Reed
closed his eyes and thought again about the night he happened to be sitting on
his back porch smoking when her shadow in the French doors caught his eye. He had actually taken a cold shower that
night to try to erase the effect that sensual dance had had on him. If he thought much more about it now, he’d
have to do the same thing again. That
could prove embarrassing with her flipping back covers without warning. Maybe it wouldn’t be embarrassing at all. Maybe she would just go down on him right
then and there. Hell, he would love her
to do just that while still wearing that nurses’ uniform. He hadn’t been in so much pain that he hadn’t
noticed the top button was unfastened, revealing an alluring glimpse of
cleavage. And when her arms were over
her head as she twisted her hair into a knot, the outline of just how buxom she
really was made him stop and stare. He
really had to get his mind on something else, because lately he found most of
his thoughts were ending up being about Charlotte .
