About Addison McKnight

Addison McKnight is the author of An Imperfect Plan and the pen name of Nicole Moleti and Krista Wells.

With six jobs and six children between them, they wrote their first book on Saturday nights and on the sidelines of their children’s games. They reside in West Hartford, Connecticut, with their families.
