Kristy Woodson Harvey grew up in North Carolina and studied creative writing at UNC Chapel Hill. She started blogging about home design before turning to fiction, and her debut novel Dear Carolina came out in 2015. The Peachtree Bluff series, which began in 2017, put her on the New York Times bestseller list and established her as one of the most read voices in Southern women’s fiction.

Her books tend to centre on family relationships, the pull of home, and the complicated loyalties between mothers and daughters. The Peachtree Bluff novels follow the Cooke women across three generations in a small Georgia coastal town, while her standalone novels explore similar themes in fresh settings. Since completing Peachtree Bluff she has released a new standalone novel almost every year, covering stories about summer camps, historic beach houses, and rediscovered legacies.
