Warm Springs Trilogy by Christina Kirby Author Spotlight, Giveaway & This or That


Safe at Home
Warm Springs Trilogy #1
By- Christina Kirby
Genre- Romantic Suspense


Driven by fear and desperate to protect her family, Samantha is forced to leave Chicago and everything she’s worked to achieve, only to start over by tossing a dart-at-the-map. The Georgia townsfolk’s true Southern charm is the unexpected prescription needed to heal her soul, and the sexy carpenter who touches her heart are distractions she didn’t plan on, but they might offer her a chance at a new life, if she can let go of her past.


Town heartbreaker, Spencer Malloy, isn’t looking for anything serious. His days are perfect working as a contractor, attending his nephew’s baseball games or taking him fishing. He never expects to fall for the big city girl, Samantha. She’s not his type, timid and closed off, but in her unguarded moments, he’s intrigued by the woman he can’t get out of his mind. The urge to get closer to her grows stronger each day, and when the shadow of evil resurfaces, he vows to protect Samantha, even if it means abandoning his home and joining her on the run.

When confronted by the man who’s bent on revenge, Samantha must choose between running again to save the people she loves, or if she has the strength, to stay and fight for her new life.

Warm Springs Trilogy #2
By- Christina Kirby
Genre- Romantic Suspense

Small town beauty queen, Jenny Fillmore, is a survivor. In the wake of having been kidnapped by a madman, she’s managed to put her life back together, complete with a successful career and a serious boyfriend. But, when her first love returns and hires her as his real estate agent, old wounds are torn open, making Jenny question whether or not she has the life she wants. It turns out broken hearts don’t heal so easily and old desires don’t always fade with time.

Professional baseball player, Adam Hamilton, didn’t expect a career ending shoulder injury. Thrown a curveball in his prime, he returns home to Warm Springs and the one woman whose heart he broke to pursue his sports dream. But, earning Jenny’s forgiveness won’t be easy. What he and Jenny once shared was real, but she’s moved on. With the new man in her life, time isn’t on Adam’s side.

What are your thoughts on book covers- in your opinion do they make or break a book?
A bad cover is unfortunate, but it doesn’t mean there isn’t a good story inside. It can affect how many people pick up your book and read it though. Readers who are familiar with your work will follow you for your name, but a bad cover can make it hard to grab a new reader’s attention.

How do you come up with character names?  How do you come up with novel titles?
That’s tough… there’s no rhyme or reason with me. It’s whatever works, but if your kid has a fun name don’t get mad if I borrow it.

This or That-
*Morning or Night? Depends on the activity. I’m more of a morning person, but if I’m out having fun in the city, I love the nightlife. (I’ve got to boogie… you’re welcome for getting that stuck in your head.)

*Vanilla or Chocolate? Chocolate

*Summer or Winter? Winter - show me the boots!

*Ebook or Paperback? Paperback

*Fantasy or Paranormal? Fantasy
