About the Author

Kari Trumbo is a Publisher’s Weekly bestselling author of the Wayside Ranch romantic suspense series, where faith, found family, and hard-won second chances are never optional. With a background in psychology and criminology, Kari brings emotional depth and authentic tension to stories of love, danger, and redemption, skills she first honed as a developmental editor before turning her focus to her own novels. When she’s not writing edge-of-your-seat romance, she’s enjoying life with her husband of more than twenty years in rural Minnesota, where the trees are tall, the mosquitoes are relentless so giving blood is practically a community service.
