Ruthie Knox graduated from Grinnell College as an English and history double major, and went on to earn a Ph.D. in modern British history that she's put to remarkably little use. Her previous novel Ride with Me won the 2011 Maggies Award for best contemporary series romance, as well as the 2011 Romance Junkies/Carina Press contest.

"Knox's Camelot, Ohio, books showcase just what this author does best, create love stories that feature real people in situations that readers can understand and with which they can empathize... Additionally, she writes absolutely smoking-hot love scenes! Her heroes and her heroines redeem and save each other. Love doesn't conquer all, but it makes life a whole lot sweeter." Library Journal "Flirting with Disaster is, at heart, a love story and it's one that Ms. Knox makes sweet and sexy. The scenes between Sean and Katie are filled with wit and want." All About Romance "What I love most about the way Ruthie Knox writes is her fantastic ability to turn the ordinary into something very special... There were so many moments in the book that made me smile and laugh, and that's the beauty of her writing. I was rooting for both Katie and Sean throughout the entire book, and I was very satisfied with how it came about." Paranormal Haven "Her ability to infuse her writing with such humor and heart is what makes it so appealing to readers. I can always count on Knox to make me smile with one of her books." Under the Covers "I'll read anything by Ruthie Knox-her books are always sexy, funny, beautifully poignant, and honest." -- Molly O'Keefe, bestselling author of Crazy Thing Called Love
