Karen Rose Smith est une auteure américaine accomplie, née en Pennsylvanie et reconnue pour ses romans d'amour et ses romans policiers. Elle a écrit sous divers pseudonymes, dont Karen Hughes et Kari Sutherland. Smith était enfant unique mais a grandi dans une famille étendue soudée, qui est souvent une source d'inspiration pour les thèmes familiaux dans ses livres.
Le parcours littéraire de Smith a commencé dans son adolescence précoce lorsqu'elle créait des histoires pour accompagner des chansons. Sa passion pour l'écriture l'a amenée à étudier l'anglais et le français à l'université, et elle a ensuite transformé son obsession pour les relations en romans d'amour et romans policiers à part entière. Smith a publié plus de 100 romans depuis la publication de son premier livre en 1992, beaucoup d'entre eux devenant des best-sellers sur la liste USA TODAY, les listes Amazon Romance Bestseller et la liste des best-sellers Barnes and Noble.
Les récompenses de Smith incluent deux Golden Leaf awards en romance contemporaine courte, le Golden Quill en romance traditionnelle, deux cataromance.com's awards pour les meilleures éditions spéciales et les meilleures romances de série, et le Today's Best series romance award de Romance Review. Elle a également écrit pour Meteor/Kismet, Kensington, Silhouette et Harlequin.
Outre l'écriture, Smith aime cuisiner, peindre à l'eau, jardiner, faire du shopping, écouter de la musique et passer du temps avec ses sept chats sauvés. Elle est active sur Facebook et Twitter @karenrosesmith et encourage l'interaction avec ses lecteurs via son site web, karenrosesmith.com ou KarenRoseSmithMysteries.com.
