Kilby Blades is a USA Today bestselling author of contemporary romance. She is an RWA Vivian Award finalist, a Publisher’s Weekly BookLife Prize Semi-Finalist, a HOLT Medallion finalist, and has been lauded by critics for “easing feminism and equality into her novels” (IndieReader) and “writing characters who complement each other like a fine wine does a good meal” (Publisher’s Weekly).
​​​​​​​
During her fifteen year career as a marketing executive, she moonlighted as a journalist, freelanced as a travel writer and lived it up as an entertainment columnist. She has lived in five countries, visited more than thirty, and spends part of her year in her pied-à-terre abroad.
​​​​​​​
When she’s not writing, Kilby goes to movie matinees alone, where she eats Chocolate Pocky and buttered popcorn and usually smuggles in not-a-little-bit of red wine. She is a cinephile, an oenophile, a social justice fighter and—most of all—a glutton for a good story.
