Kristen Niedfeldt

Kristen Niedfeldt is the author of ENDING THE RAIN, FINDING EVER AFTER, PRINCESS WITHOUT A PALACE, and MYSTERY AT THE MIDNIGHT BALL.

After studying elementary education at Brigham Young University, she taught third grade for two years before she "retired" (as her students called it) to stay home with her little baby boys!

She has always adored fairy tales, especially Gail Carson Levine's ELLA ENCHANTED and Shannon Hales's PRINCESS ACADEMY.

When she's not writing, she loves to play outside with her kids, cook, and spend time living out her own happily ever after with her best friend and husband, Peter.
