About

Kristi Hong is the author of the romance novel The Teacher's Match, published by Harlequin® Heartwarming, a division of HarperCollins Publishers.

Born to immigrants from Taiwan, Kristi Hong grew up in Michigan and while she’s lived in many different places, she’s still a Midwestern girl at heart. After a career on Wall Street, Kristi fulfilled her middle school dreams by becoming a published author, with a goal of writing books featuring diverse characters, particularly Asian-Americans. 

Kristi worked at a florist and an ice cream shop as a teenager and has loved all things dessert- and floral-related ever since. When she's not writing, she can be found reading a book, taking a long afternoon nap, or munching on a pan-fried dumpling. 

Got an idea for a romance novel? Kristi's always looking for great story ideas, from the "meet cute" to the "happily ever after"—you may even be the main character in her next book! Message her on Instagram @kristihongwriter or via email at the link below.
