K. Thomas is a human, not a talking cat. "Time to Wake" was her first novel. She meant to publish one sooner, but fell in love with her day job. Unlike her main character, she likes numbers and budgets almost as much as she likes words. Her debut novel Time to Wake received a warm literary welcome with five star reviews from IndieReader and Readers' Favorite, as well as being awarded the 2021 Readers' Favorite Silver Medal in the New Adult Genre.

IndieReader Editorial Review: IR Rating 5.0 out of 5.0 ~ IndieReader Approved The highlight of TIME TO WAKE is its extensive worldbuilding—especially the backstory that sparks the bulk of the conflict and tosses out surprises left and right once the pieces begin falling into place. Nephilim lore gets a fresh update, and Thomas brings something original to the already crowded genre, which is not always an easy task. Passages where Senlis struggles with or learns more about her unusual power are captivating as they are effective. An exciting start to a series that wraps up one mystery while leaving a lot of fun breadcrumbs—and a last-minute reveal that packs an emotional wallop—for future installments. A suspenseful new adult paranormal romance, TIME TO WAKE blends a tense, slow-burn mystery thriller with a completely original twist on supernatural lore. Clever storytelling and loveable characters make for a solid, unputdownable debut. ~Jessica Thomas for IndieReader Five Star—Readers' Favorite "The leads are so lovely and infused with humor that it's easy to get caught up in the romantic and adventurous element of the story. K. Thomas will make you believe in love but break your heart at the same time. Time to Wake is a well-written story that redefines what it means to live a normal life when you are tied to circumstances beyond your control. Senlis struggles to unearth more truths about her identity while trying to make sense of the predicament they face. These are pressing imperatives delivered in a thrilling and dreamy storyline. Despite impending danger, there is enough time to properly explore the relationship of Senlis and Hunter as it evolves from hostility to romance, and this evolution is how Thomas masterfully delivers the girl meets boy trope with an original twist. As the first installment in a new series, it meets expectations so that you will eagerly await the next book." ~Vincent Dublado for Readers' Favorite 5 Star Readers' Favorite review for Not Right Now: The second installment in a series is probably the most difficult one to pitch to your readers. You’ve proven that the concept works enough for a story, but now you need to prove that the characters you created and already pushed to their limit once have more room for development and growth. K. Thomas, however, rises to the challenge exceptionally, taking Senlis, Benny, and Hunter and continuing their journey by pushing them into new and exciting situations which show different sides to their characters and create a fascinating growth beyond the already fleshed out individuals we met in the first book. Not Right Now is a masterclass in growing the world of the series in a manner that constantly adds and improves on the material in the first book without ever contradicting or overcomplicating the world. It is an excellent piece of paranormal fiction that I would happily recommend to any fans of the genre. ~ K.C. Finn for Readers’ Favorite
