Kate Lloyd writes Amish-themed fiction and inspirational novels. She first gained attention with A Portrait of Marguerite in 2006, but it was her Legacy of Lancaster series, starting with Leaving Lancaster in 2012, that established her in the Amish fiction market. Her books typically follow women who discover connections to the Amish community or wrestle with questions of faith and family.
Lloyd has published fourteen books across multiple series and standalones. Her Lancaster Discovery series picks up similar themes, while her standalone novels branch out to settings in Italy, Scotland, and beyond. She writes with a gentle pace and a focus on personal transformation, and her readers tend to come back book after book for the warmth and sincerity of her storytelling.
