About Georgina

Trans masculine non-binary author Georgina Kiersten specializes in writing diverse LGBTQ+ romances. Their specialty lies in writing about the Black queer and trans experience. Georgina grew up in San Antonio, Texas, with a single mother who always believed in their dream of becoming a writer.

Georgina found solace in books to cope with the challenges of being autistic. From childhood favorites like Little Women and Anne of Green Gables to later authors like Danielle Steel and Anne Rice, their reading tastes evolved.

However, it wasn’t until much later as an adult that they discovered their first Brenda Jackson book and entered the wonderful world of diverse romance, where Black women can fall in love with faraway Princes.

It initiated Georgina’s journey of self-discovery. During the next two decades, Georgina’s reading alternated between queer and trans-positive fanfiction and original romance. Finally, frustrated with the lack of diversity in their favorite genres, Georgina wrote their first fanfic and that eventually led them to write The Devil’s Bargain and then later Fall Into you.

Despite publishing three other books, Georgina remains fiercely passionate about diversity and inclusion in the publishing industry.

It’s Autumn. Is there a better time to fall in love?

Imari Haines has had it with the gossip. The whole town is acting like she’s their very own Runaway Bride. A plus-size, black version of Julia Roberts that left a perfectly nice boy at the altar.

Her family are no exception. Her mother won’t stop making passive-aggressive comments. 

Exhausted by this charged atmosphere, a boss that doesn’t appreciate her, and the never-ending town rumors, Imari makes a bold decision. Come autumn, she moves to Appeley (a small town in Hill Country) and never looks back.

In Appeley, for the first time ever, Imari feels welcome, happy, and unapologetically herself. She tries new things, makes brand-new friends and, while attending the fall apple festival, she accidentally bumps into a very familiar face…

Cassidy Martinez was her childhood best friend and partner in crime. Now, she has grown into a stunning, confident woman, and Imari can’t help noticing.

Should she take a risk?

Can the two of them pick up where they left off, or is being friends not going to be enough this time around?
