Katie Ganshert is the Christy Award–winning author of inspirational novels that explore hope, redemption, and the complexity of human relationships.

While she no longer writes contemporary Christian fiction, Katie’s inspirational novels continue to connect with readers who love emotional, thought-provoking stories grounded in faith.

Under the pen name K.E. Ganshert, she now writes clean, high-stakes fiction—fantasy, dystopian, and supernatural romance with all the yummy tension but none of the explicit content.
