Shelley Shepard Gray is a New York Times and USA Today bestselling author, a finalist for the American Christian Fiction Writers prestigious Carol Award, and a two-time Hold Medallion winner.

She lives in southern Ohio, where she writes full-time, bakes too much, and can often be found walking her dachshunds on her town's bike trail.

Rachel J. Good grew up near Lancaster, Pennsylvania, the setting for her Amish romances. A former teacher and librarian, she completed her MA from Vermont College while raising five children and is presently completing her thesis in the Hollins University MFA program. In addition to balancing freelance editing and illustrating careers, she teaches writing and creativity classes.

USA Today bestselling author Loree Lough once sang for her supper, performing across the U.S. and Canada. Now and then, she blows the dust from her 6-string to croon a tune or two, but mostly, she writes novels that have earned hundreds of industry and "Readers' Choice" awards, 4- and 5-star reviews, and 7 book-to-movie options. Home to Stay (#2 in the "A Little Child Shall Lead Them" series for Kensington) is her 118th published book. She welcomes interactions at Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and Pinterest!
