Queens across the ages have had children and ruled, but none of them were a Fairy Queen ruling from a trailer park. Struggling to balance life as a mom and a queen, Grace Ann Bryant leans on those who she trusts the most to protect her children. Astor, who returned from Summer with her, is a full-time nanny for Aydan and Winnie while Levi becomes Grace’s constant shadow. She’s decided to take back the Otherworld.

Petty arguments escalate quickly, and the town begins to tear itself apart from the inside. All the while, someone is leaving haunting objects around town for Grace. Holding it together, she pushes back her grief, again and again, focusing on her children and Shady Grove. Side-by-side, Grace, and Levi search out the culprit who enacted the curse as she waits for Levi to tell her what happened to him while in the Otherworld. The Evil Eye has come to Shady Grove, and the Queen of the Exiles will discover the truth about Levi’s scars and face their maker in a curse-charged battle. Sight for Sore Eyes is about the things you can see, the things you can’t see, and the things you refuse to see. Will Levi and Grace stop the curse on Shady Grove? Why is there a fairy town in the middle of Alabama? Will Grace ever see Dylan again? Sight for Sore Eyes is Book 8 of the Fairy Tales of a Trailer Park Queen by Kimbra Swain.

I wanted to mix those two things, but remain true to the Southern traditions and values that I was raised on: family, community, and determination. The Trailer Park Series is my ode to the South.Q: What is the most important part of the Fairy Tales of a Trailer Park Queen to you?A: Every single character in the series is real to me. The development of each one is so important for me going through the series. Some of them, including Grace, start off with many flaws. I should say especially Grace.Q: How much of Grace is patterned after yourself?A: Oh, gosh! Grace and I are a lot alike. Sassy and smart. However, Grace is very compassionate and trusting. She's also got a mouth on her. She says things that aren't PC, but as her character develops over the series, she sees that there were things she was very wrong about. Grace's story is about becoming who she was meant to be, and fate doesn't define that purpose. She does.Q: What are your future plans for the Trailerverse?A: The main series will have 15 books with a short story anthology focusing on the minor characters. I will be launching Wynonna's story this fall in Stories of Frost and Fire. The werewolf, Dominick Meyer, will also get his own series called Dog River Wolfpack. It will launch this fall, too. I have future undetermined plans to expand the Trailerverse. Follow my website and the Trailerverse site to keep up with the announcements!
