2 series 6 books in order

Kristen McKanagh, author of Amish and sweet contemporary romances, grew up consuming books and exploring the world through her writing. She attempted to find a practical career by earning a degree in English rhetoric (technical writing) and an MBA. However, she swiftly discovered that writing without imagination is not nearly as fun as writing with it. Kristen also writes award-winning steamy contemporary romance as Kadie Scott and award-winning paranormal and YA fantasy romance as Abigail Owen. No matter the genre, she loves to write happily-ever-afters that shine with home, heart, and humor. Kristen currently resides in Austin, Texas, with her own personal hero husband and their two children, who are growing up way too fast.
