About the book:
There are
three things you need to know about Ashley Winston: 1) She has six brothers and
they all have beards, 2) She is a reader, and 3) She knows how to knit.
Former
beauty queen, Ashley Winston’s preferred coping strategy is escapism. She
escaped her Tennessee small town, loathsome father, and six brothers eight
years ago. Now she escapes life daily via her Amazon kindle one-click
addiction. However, when a family tragedy forces her to return home, Ashley
can’t escape the notice of Drew Runous— local Game Warden, bear wrestler,
philosopher, and everyone’s favorite guy.
Drew’s irksome philosophizing in
particular makes Ashley want to run for the skyscrapers, especially since he
can’t seem to keep his exasperating opinions— or his soulful poetry, steadfast
support, and delightful hands— to himself. Pretty soon the girl who wanted
nothing more than the escape of the big city finds she’s lost her heart in
small town Tennessee.
This is a
full-length novel, can be read as a standalone, and is the fourth book in the
'Knitting in the City' series.

About Penny Reid
SEX! It all
started with sex, between my parents. Personally I don’t like thinking about
it, but whatever works for you is A-OK with me. No judgment. The sex happened
in California and much of my life also occurred in that state until I moved
from the land of nuts (almonds), wine, silicon… boobs, and heavy traffic to the
southeast US.

Like most writers I like to write, but let’s get back to sex.
Eventually I married and gave birth to 2 small people-children (boy-6, girl-4
as of this writing).
By day I’m a
biomedical researcher with focus on rare diseases. By night I’m a knitter,
sewer, lino block carver, fabric printer, soap maker, and general crafter. By
the wee hours of the morning or when I’m intoxicated I love to listen to the
voices in my head and let them tell me stories. I hope you enjoy their stories.
