About Raven Kennedy

Raven Kennedy is a California girl born and raised, whose love for books pushed her into creating her own worlds.

Her debut indie series was a fantasy romcom about a cupid looking for love, but she is best known for her adult dark fantasy romance: The Plated Prisoner Series, which became an international bestseller and has sold in over 20 countries. It became a New York Times, USA Today, Sunday Times, and Spiegel bestseller, hit #1 in the Amazon store, and has sold over six million copies worldwide.

Her newest release, The Sweetest Fiend, is coming out in 2026 with Avon Books and Penguin Michael Joseph, and is a dark fantasy romance duology inspired by the legend of the Pied Piper.

Whether she makes you laugh or cry, or whether the series is about a cupid, a gilded woman, or a mysterious musician, she hopes to create characters that readers can root for. When she isn’t writing or reading, she’s spending time with her husband and daughters.
