Kimberly Toohey

Co-author of the "Where the Crosses Grow" series, Kimberly Toohey is a native to Southern California. She lives with her husband and "her" dog in a quaint little beach town. They have four grown children between them. While she continues to work as a registered nurse, her true love has always been in pediatrics. She believes her faith, family and friends are the key to living a meaningful life. She can usually be found on the beach watching her favorite surfer (a.k.a. her hubby) or beach combing for sea glass with her friend and co-author Stephanie Sunderman.
