Krista Marie Ritchie and Becca Michelle Ritchie are sisters and New York Times and USA Today bestselling authors [1] of young adult and romance novels. Their first joint book, Addicted to You, was published in June 2013. [2]
When she was fourteen years old, Becca independently published a young adult/urban fantasy novel titled Wynter Chelsea: The Legacy with Outskirts Press. [3]
Almost all of Krista and Becca's books take place in one shared universe, with the exception of their YA Sci-Fi Duology The Raging Ones. Circus Is Family takes place in Las Vegas and has numerous references to the Addicted series and the Calloway family. The flagship series, the Addicted series, is a ten book series that follows the lives, relationships and scandals of the three Calloway Sisters: Lily, Rose and Daisy and their love interest Loren Hale, Connor Cobalt and Ryke Meadows. Recurring characters in the second half of the series: Willow Moore and Garrison Abbey, eventually received their own books in the Bad Reputation duet. The series later continued into the second generation with the Like Us and Cobalt Empire series.
The Webs We Weave trilogy makes a reference to where it takes place in the KristaBecca-Verse toward the end of the first book (it takes place during the original Addicted series), and through bonus content, it's revealed that Love & Other Cursed Things takes place during the Like Us Series.

Addicted Series: While written as two separate series initially, the Addicted and Calloway Sisters series are now grouped together as one series after the series was republished by Berkley Romance in 2024. Readers can read both separately, but for full context of the characters, it is encouraged to read them in the "Addicted" order as listed below.
Calloway Sisters Series:
Bad Reputation Duet: While published later, the Bad Reputation duet is a spin-off duology to the Addicted series, taking place during events and having similar recurring characters. It can be read completely on its own.
Like Us Series: The "Like Us" series is another spin-off of the Addicted Series, however, it takes nearly a decade after the end of Some Kind of Perfect (Addicted #10) and follows the lives of the second generation as they wind up relationships with their bodyguards. The series was originally titled the Billionaires and Bodyguards series, but eventually took on the Like Us series name by the second or third book.
The Raging Ones Duology: Krista and Becca stated that this series would be revamped for a New Adult audience in the future via their Patreon in June 2025.
