Raised in Kentucky timber country, Steele is a best-selling and award winning author who writes in favor of her rural surroundings.

Since her debut novel in 2021, To Catch a Hummingbird, Steele has published over a baker’s dozen of novels and novellas and was chosen as the reader’s choice winner for Sweet Inspirational Fiction in the 2022 and 2024 Faith, Hope, and Love Reader’s Choice Awards. 

Steele is a welcomed addition to the Amish genre, Steele’s knowledge of and admiration for the Amish community credits her ability to understand boundaries, and customs, giving her readers an inside view of the Plain life. 

Her accidental debut into romantic suspense with the Mountain Protectors novels proves she is a writer of words and a storyteller at heart. Her books are peppered with humor, and sprinkled with grace, charming all the senses to make you laugh, cry, hold your breath, and root for the happy ever after ending.

Steele lives in northeastern Kentucky with her husband, Mike. They have five grown children, eleven grandchildren, and many wonderful neighbors.
