ABOUT KIMBERLY ACS
Hi, I’m Kimberly Acs!
I write faith-infused romantic suspense in small-town settings where life is predictably peaceful … until it isn’t. Everyone knows everyone, but you never know what someone might be capable of.
Give me a coffee shop. Give me a quaint small town. Give me a woman I can relate to and a man I’m going to fall for. Then scare the bejeebies out of me.
That’s my idea of a good book, and I hope it’s yours, too.
I’m an indie author, which gives me the freedom to write the stories I want to tell, the way I want to tell them. I don’t have to chase trends or worry about whether my stories fit someone else’s idea of what readers want.
How It Began
Interestingly, it’s not that interesting. I eventually decided it was time to stop thinking about writing a book and actually write one. So I did. It took a lot of learning, stubbornness, and several drafts that live in countless notebooks around the house. And in the end, I had a finished novel I loved, but was absolutely terrified to share. Yet here I am.
My debut novel, In the Stillness, is set in Willow, Kansas, a fictional town inspired by the Flint Hills landscape I know and love.
I’m a lifelong Kansan who divides my time between home and Forida’s Gulf Coast. I love traveling with my husband and camping in our quirky little Airstream. The whole country is a beautiful road to imagination, and every picnic table is a desk meant for writing.
I’m currently working on In the Shadows, the second of three novels planned for my Willow series.
FUN FACTS

Acs is Hungarian and originally pronounced ‘Ahch.’ My family has always pronounced it ‘Axe,’ which seems appropriate considering I’m related to Lizzie Borden.
