Christine Columbus Writes Sweet Small Town Romance
Christine Columbus has a new romance full of river sunsets, romantic campfires, and summer love just for you.
How did you become a romance author?
Eighteen years ago, while living in Minneapolis, Minnesota, I published children’s stories, creative non-fiction, poetry, and flash fiction, then stumbled into romance, writing several short stories and a novel with The Wild Rose Press.
Then I took a fifteen-year break and traveled the US with my husband, volunteering at National Wildlife Refuges, the Army Corps of Engineers, and Oregon State Parks.
And now, I am thrilled to be back writing with Chance Meeting available now, and I’d Rather Kiss You Goodnight newly released. These novels culminate my passion for storytelling, and I can’t wait to share them with you.
What have you learned about being an author?
Submit. It really is that simple. I have been published in children’s, creative non-fiction, poetry, romance, and flash fiction.
I can guarantee that if you never submit, you’ll never be rejected, but you’ll never feel the thrill of having a stranger say, Yes.
After a ten-year break from writing, my husband mentioned that I should write. So, I typed a story and submitted it to The Wild Rose Press, never dreaming they’d accept Chance Meeting, but they did.
Writing is about ten percent talent, and the other ninety percent is perseverance.
Go forth and prosper.
I’d Rather Kiss You Goodnight
Will autumn leave Sally with bittersweet memories or a broken heart?
Sally has sworn off relationships. At forty-seven, she finds herself stuck in a rut and feels as if she’s going nowhere. Until her mother needs help to fix up her house. Now, Sally spends her weekends driving three hours to plaster and paint walls.
Ty is also lending a hand with the repairs, and their attraction simmers just beneath the surface. As the house takes on a new life, so does Sally’s heart. By day, they work on the house, but in the evenings, they escape to a local campground, overlooking river sunsets and diving into a summer romance.
What does Sally do when summer fades to fall and Ty prepares to leave?
