about me

I am a writer of historical and modern romance and epic adventure.
I believe in writing for the reader and that dialog should tell the story. If a writer has to push, push, push description – well, my attention goes wayward real fast. Readers want to be swept away with an interesting story. We want well formed characters that we can practically reach out and touch. We also want a sense of their turmoil, their actions and be wrapped up in the climactic storm and swept away with them. One of my mottos is ‘trauma and drama’ – the more the merrier.

Please, check out my completed novel 'Taylor Made'.

The Enigma

Kathryn Ferrier

The Enigma is a fictional modern romance full of witty banter and thick sarcasm.


Hayden is a mystery that intrigues Catherine like no other man. Having connected through an online social media site Catherine never sees the man's image, nor does she know the sound of his voice. But she is aware of his powerful personality and aggressive mental strength.
Hayden reveals his prowess on Wall Street. He also skydives and allegedly has a voice to rival the depth of Sam Elliott. Hayden types across the screen words of true love. Words that Catherine desperately needs to hear.
Six years later Catherine has published books. While in Manhattan at a book signing she is approached by an average looking businessman. He flirts and touches Catherine's subconscious, drawing her into the charm of Richard Beckett III.
Returned home Catherine opens instant messenger only to find sarcastic Hayden. As he makes reference to R.H. Beckett Catherine sees the deceit. However they slowly come to an understanding. They meet again and actually learn to trust one another. Things then take a turn toward the worst. In a dilapidating farmhouse on Lake Placid emotions, a gun and the house explode. The enigma is a lying force to be reckoned with and Catherine has been hurt to many times.
