Kate Stewart is an American author who specializes in contemporary romance. Her novels also straddle the subgenres of dark romance, erotic suspense, and romantic comedy. Stewart grew up in Texas and currently lives in North Carolina, where her Ravenhood novels are also set. She is therefore familiar with the Blue Ridge Mountains, a setting which features heavily in the trilogy. Stewart began her career by self-publishing her novels and rose to popularity on BookTok—the name for TikTok users who post about books—where she has an expansive social media following and fanbase. She is a USA Today bestselling author and in her author biography she describes her work as “sexy, messy, [and] angst-filled” (“About.” Kate Stewart).

Stewart has published over 25 novels, including both series and standalone novels. The Ravenhood trilogy includes the titles Flock, Exodus (2020), and The Finish Line (2022). Her Bittersweet Symphony series includes the titles Drive (2017), Reverse (2022), and Bittersweet Melody (2024).
