"He’s planning all the battles, but she’s winning the war."
Dark Prince, Heed Thy Queen is all about roles and reversals: bad boy meets good girl, or is it the other way around? Maybe it’s a triple flip and they’re both bad… Examine what it means to hide your primary sexual relationship from people you love but flaunt that same relationship in front of strangers. These two meet at a party and in that instant close off their real lives to reach deep into their fantasies. They step away from everything they know to establish an intimate atmosphere of risk and fulfillment.
This wasn’t romance, it went way beyond that. They were off the grid, powered by the kind of feelings that blow apart a “real” relationship. They were removed from time and place, in an epic struggle to out-satisfy each other at their deepest darkest core. They created an autocratic realm unto themselves where ageless appetites ruled in and for the moment – and the moment was all.

Transplanted to the Pacific Northwest from the Great Lakes basin, she is a product of the small press-poetry culture with a background in alternative publishing. Her vivid use of language captures characters while life itself provides the twists and turns.
She has mastered make-believe. She makes you believe she's a tow truck driver who falls in love with a shattered family. She makes you believe she's a grocer with an after-hours fondness for pot and sex. She makes you believe she's an accountant hijacked in her car after work hearing the words: You, Drive North.
Kathleen K. drops readers into situations as diverse as the world of Honey B., Sexual Consultant, and of Baby Girl Battersea, fatherless heir to a family fortune in the clutches of her selfish uncle. These books are not linked by theme or genre, this is a rich collection of all-age and adults-only offerings comprising decades of production.
Sharp dialog, elegant prose and a sassy attitude give the audience credit for reading between, around and beyond the lines. Consistently praised for her ability to capture tone and emotion, Kathleen K. is a strong voice in contemporary fiction.
Becoming available for the first time in print and Kindle format, these Private Publications are varied in topic but easily identifiable as Words Arranged by Kathleen K.
Recognizing the varying tastes and tolerances in the reading world, there are two sites provided for reader comfort representing two sides of the emerging collection with eight of the twelve books available to buy.

I can't say I've ever read a book quite like this one. It's almost like a stream of conscious narrative, but it's poetic in a way. The characters feel no inhibitions about their bodies or love life. It's an interesting dynamic and I'm surprised by how much I enjoyed it.
