Her favorite place to write about is the place her heart lives, (even if she doesn't) South Dakota.
Kari loves reading, listening to contemporary Christian music, singing when no one's listening, and curling up near the wood stove when winter hits. She makes her home in central Minnesota, land of frigid toes and mosquitoes the size of compact cars, with her husband of over twenty years. They have two daughters, two sons, two cats, and one peculiar bunny.

She considers herself a recovering perfectionist and sometimes hot mess. She does her best to live her faith in action, being open, honest, and real; letting God be Lord over the good, the bad, and the ugly even when it's hard.

Reviewers of her Bear Creek Saddle series have called her books “Christian storytelling at its best;” “with the wonderful writing style of Shoshanna Gabriel. …a roller-coaster ride of emotion. Heartbreak, guilt, forgiveness, fear… highly recommended to anyone who likes Christian inspirational love stories filled with down-to-earth, everyday struggles.”
Shoshanna used to work as a syndicated advice columnist in NY and a registered nurse, but now she’s a full-time author and the co-founder of SelfPubBookCovers.com, the world’s leading marketplace of premade book covers for indie authors. She loves to connect with readers on social media and at ShoshannaGabriel.com.
