Show Notes

We're buzzing with excitement to chat with Katie Ruggle about her splash hit, FISH OUT OF WATER. It's not just about romance.

Katie's not your everyday author. Imagine living off-grid in the Rockies, being a Police Academy grad, and diving in cold Colorado mountain reservoirs. Yeah, she's all that and more. We're talking horseback riding, shooting, and even Krav Maga. Katie brings this kickass energy right into her writing.


FISH OUT OF WATER
Why date a mountain man? Because he knows how to pitch a tent.

When Dahlia Weathersby's sister disappears on what should have been a simple day hike, Dahlia immediately heads deep into the Colorado Rockies to find her. Knowing she'll never survive the mountains alone, she convinces the local hermit—adorably grouchy survival expert Winston Dane—to be her guide. All it takes is a good helping of Dahlia's charm…and just the teeniest bit of blackmail…before she's got all six-foot-something of him wrapped around her finger. But even with her very own mountain man in tow, things aren't going to be easy. There are:

  • Long hikes through gorgeous wilderness? Check.
  • Bears? Check.
  • A single shared sleeping bag? Check.
  • Enough sparks to set the Rockies ablaze? Check, check, check.

With everything the wilderness has to throw at them, it'll take more than charm and some city-girl ingenuity to make this trek anything but a disaster waiting to happen…and an adventure she'll never forget.
