MEET KI,
Hi, I’m Ki Stephens! I’m a romance writer who finds comfort in the happily-ever-after. . . with just a little bit of angst along the way. I have a special interest in works that include neurodivergent characters like myself. When I’m not daydreaming about books, I like to listen to my favorite songs on repeat, rewatch early 2000s films, and spend loads of time with my family.
I released my debut novel, SPRING TIDE, in December 2022.
