Kimmie Ferrell is a full-time aspiring author and avid reader of romance novels. She began reading Harlequin novels when a huge box was given to her from her unsuspecting mother, who she contributes her love of reading from.

Reading the stories about surprise babies, wealthy sheiks and C.E.Os, cowboys, bad boys, cops, single parents,  and the many other heroes and heroines Harlequin novels are known for having, Kimmie didn't want to just read the books. She wanted to write them.

While Kimmie has been writing poetry and fan fictions for years, her first several attempts at writing a novel was more of a failure, but she continued to hope, dream and write knowing one day achieve her dream of becoming a #KimaniRomance author alongside some of her favorites like Donna Hill, Sheryl Lister, Brenda Jackson, Candace Shaw, Adrianne Byrd, Judy Lynn Hubbard and others.

Her title "Smoldering The Flames" is entered in Harlequin's #SYTYCW15 contest targeted for #KimaniRomance.
