Kimberly J.M. Wilson is an American author of The Actress Series and lives in Cincinnati, Ohio. When she is not writing fiction for Bella Books, she is an educator. Her unique understanding of how the world appears to those who think and process emotions and interpersonal relationships somewhat differently from others is at the center of her novels. The foundation of her storytelling lies in her belief that laughter is the best medicine for the often-harsh realities of the human experience. Like George Bernard Shaw, her “way of joking is to tell the truth. It’s the funniest joke in the world.”

Admired Authors: Jane Austen, William Shakespeare, Oscar Wilde, Tennessee Williams, Flannery O'Connor, Jen Lyon, and Dr. Seuss. Pride and Prejudice is ...more

Who knew a rational, steadfast writer of realistic relationships could become so enamored with a series about witches, werewolves, and magic? I read all three of the Sloane West mysteries (so far) in just over a week. C. Jean Downer is a gifted story ...more
