Welcome to Falls Village… I’ve always been different, but I don’t care. I know who I am—a high-strung computer whiz and trained operative who finds it challenging to relate to others. I never cared about friends or fitting in, and women only served me one purpose. Until Jordan Collins entered my life—she turned my world upside down in the most amazing way... and then I blew it. But I refuse to give up. I don’t want to return to the solitary life I once had. I’m trying to get Jordan back, but she isn’t making it easy. With the revitalization underway and constant changes at every turn, the town and its new inhabitants are forcing me out of my comfort zone—Jordan is forcing me out of my comfort zone. Can I be the kind of man that Jordan needs? Or will my hang-ups cause me to be alone…for the rest of forever? The Rest of Forever is the first book in the Falls Village Collection. A collection from various authors of RomantiConn. The story of Callan Black and his friends begins in Berry’s Compatible Companions Trilogy and will continue throughout the Falls Village Collection.

Kitty Berry grew up an only child who never wished for a sibling in a small town in Connecticut. After graduating with a degree in Early Childhood Special Education, she began teaching in the field and started to raise a family. Her literary influences happened later in life when she stumbled upon The Pilot’s Wife by Anita Shreve after seeing it featured on the Oprah Show. It was her late mother’s (whose name she uses as a pen name) desire of becoming a writer that prompted Kitty to create a contemporary romantic series. Being a creative person by nature who came into writing during a time in her life when the busy balance of career and family made her crave an escape into the world of romance, Kitty took that desire and turned it into a romantic series that offers the reader multidimensional characters. In 2013, she published her first novel from The Stone Series, Sliding. Since then she has written 10 other novels in that series, among them Stoned, Second Chances, Surrender, Starting Over, and Silence. The final installment, Survivor was released in 2016. A holiday edition was released in late 2018. Since then, Berry has released a trilogy titled, The Anatomy of Love and written a carry-over stand-alone novel, Vines of Ivy. In 2019, she released the Compatible Companions Trilogy. Because angst-ridden, plot-driven, women's contemporary romances mesmerize Kitty, Berry writes only in that genre. While each book in The Stone Series can stand alone with its own story, Berry’s intention was to create carry-over characters to satisfy the need of the reader to know more after each novel ends. As an avid reader herself, Kitty enjoys the feeling of being there with the characters inside the story and often finds herself wanting to know more about them, missing them when the story is over, and becoming excited all over again when she discovers those familiar characters in subsequent novels. It is her hope that The Stone Series will do the same for her readers. Kitty is married to a man she met in graduate school and has three boys who are almost men. Kitty recently founded RomantiConn (a romance author signing event annually held in CT) and is currently working on the Falls Village anthology hybrid with her fellow RomantiConn authors.
