Kathleen Ball is a best-selling and award-winning author, known for her Christian Western, Contemporary, and Historical Romance novels. With memorable characters and great emotion, Kathleen has created a niche for herself in the competitive world of romance writing. She began writing in 2009 and published her debut novel, "Callie’s Heart," in 2012.
Kathleen's writing journey began with two publishers, where she learned a great deal about the business of writing. However, she eventually moved on to self-publishing, as she enjoys the control it gives her over release dates and book covers. Writing is Kathleen's bliss, and she strives to write every day. Her stories are inspired by her belief in love at first sight and happily ever-after. Kathleen was originally from Rochester, New York, but now resides in Texas with her husband. She has one son and two amazing granddaughters. When she's not writing, Kathleen can be found reading, particularly Westerns that can make her cry.
Kathleen has written over seventy titles, including the "Mail Order Brides of Texas" series, the "Oregon Trail Dreamin'" series, the "Settler" series, the "Mail-Order Brides of Spring Water" series, the "Kavanaghs" series, and the "McKeegans" series. She has also written standalone novels, such as "We've Only Just Begun," "A Lifetime to Share," and "A Love Worth Searching For." Kathleen's books are available for purchase on her website, as well as on Bookbub, Goodreads, and other online retailers.
