Sandra Steffen, the winner of the RITA Award, the Wish Award and the National Readers Choice Award has always felt blessed to have a great imagination, but she assumed writers had to live in New York or California.

Today she is the proud author of more than 30 published novels, and she didn't have to leave the midwest to do it. Her titles have appeared on bestseller lists such as USA TODAY, the NEW YORK TIMES, Barnes and Noble, Waldenbooks, and others. Her books have been translated into a dozen languages.

Sandra grew up in a large, close-knit family. In keeping with this tradition, she and her husband are the proud parents of four sons.


“I read once that sorrow looks back, worry looks around, and faith looks ahead.”
