Get to know kristen


Kristen Ethridge writes Sweet Escape Romance—stories with hope, heart and happily-ever-after for Harlequin's Love Inspired line, Hallmark Publishing, and Laurel Lock Publishing. She’s a Romance Writers of America Golden Heart Award nominee and both an Amazon Christian Fiction and Inspirational Romance #1 Best-Selling Author.

You can find Kristen in her native habitat—a Texas patio—where she’s likely to be savoring the joy of a crispy taco, along with a glass of iced tea. She'll also have scents from an essential oil diffuser nearby, since she's a certified aromatherapist. She’s almost convinced her family that it’s normal to talk to imaginary people, as long as she puts it in a book.
