I’m so excited to share my new series, Falling For The Freemans, with readers. The idea for this series
actually came to me about ten years ago, when my husband and I was driving
through Upstate New York on the way to my parents’ house in Canada. We
unfortunately had engine trouble, and went off the highway in search of a
garage. We drove through a town that looked as if it had once been a tourist
destination, with beautiful old Victorian houses and a lovely village green and
bandstand, but with a forgotten, dilapidated air over everything that made me
curious. What had happened to this town, and why wasn’t it still a popular
tourist destination, like other towns in the Thousand Islands region? I answer
that question in my series, set in the fictional town of Creighton Falls, and
the first novella in it, Falling For
Christmas, came out on November 9.
Falling for Christmas
is Hannah Ford and Sam Taylor’s story. Hannah is a New Yorker running away from
a Christmas house party where her snide ex unexpectedly showed up. Sam is the
strong, silent type who has no idea what to do with a glamorous city girl.
Fortunately they figure something out over a very special Christmas! And during
her stay in Creighton Falls Hannah learns about the Freeman family, who once
ran the town as well as the huge hotel on the village green, empty and
abandoned for twenty years, ever since Peter Freeman fell through the ice and
drowned in a fishing accident.
The next three books in the series, Falling Hard, Falling Fast, and Falling
Forever, have a Freeman brother as the hero of each story. Each brother has
had a different experience of and reaction to his father’s death, and what
happened on that awful day. Each one will have to return to Creighton Falls and
face his past and deal with his secrets. And meanwhile Creighton Falls will
finally get the facelift it deserves.
I hope you enjoy Falling
For The Freemans. I’m giving away one e-copy of Falling For Christmas—just leave a comment below, telling me what
you think of small town series.
Happy Reading,
Kate
