Kiki Astor

Romance Author and Ex Rich Person

Kiki Astor is the author of Stick and Ball, set in the elite playground that is Montecito, California and Meat my Fish, set in tropical St Barth.

Her upcoming romance novels are set in wealthy enclaves such as Gstaad, St. Tropez, Greenwich, Beverly Hills, Middleburg, and Napa Valley.

Kiki lives a geographically confused but rich life with her delightful husband, mortified children, and incredibly demanding lap dog.

When she isn’t penning slightly naughty stories, she keeps herself busy doling out rich life, Old Money, and etiquette advice on TikTok as everyone’s favorite Auntie Kiki.
