Nela Mičková

[EN] Nela Mičková is a Czech author who recently began publishing in English. Writing has been her lifelong love—she completed her first novel at thirteen, and at just seventeen, she published her official debut, The Kingdom in the Stone, in 2023. Its sequel, Cracks in the Stone, followed in 2024—both released in her home country, where the duology quickly found success. The series now marks a rare step for Czech YA fiction into the global market—bringing a blend of dark fantasy, emotional depth, and fairytale vibes to a wider audience.

When she’s not writing about cold-hearted kings or cooking witch potions, she’s studying molecular biology, lifting heavy weights, or re-reading her favorite fantasy novels for the hundredth time.

Athena aims to craft love stories that linger long after the last page, where sensuality meets emotional resonance and every happily ever after is hard-won.

Athena writes under a pen name and keeps her identity tucked quietly away—after all, isn’t every love story better with a little mystery?

C.J. Holmes

CJ Holmes lives in England, where it's cold and damp, and it's always raining - which provides her with enough time to write stories about magic, fantasy and romance. She'd like to escape to somewhere warm but that might mean that she spends too much time sunbathing and not enough time writing books.

She lives in a quaint English cottage which would have one of those idyllic gardens if her fingers weren't the opposite of green. Fortunately, her husband and children don't seem to mind that almost everything she tries to grow ends up dead. She enjoys drinking wine and gin, which conveniently coincides with her love of reading and writing, as well as running and watching bad TV shows. You have been warned....

Brighton Walsh

Award-winning USA Today and Wall Street Journal bestselling author Brighton Walsh spent nearly a decade as a professional photographer before taking her storytelling in a different direction and reconnecting with her first love: writing. When she’s not lost in her own made up worlds, she’s probably either reading or shopping—maybe even both at once. She lives in the Midwest with her real life hero of a husband, her two kids—both taller than her—and her dog who thinks she’s a queen. Her boy-filled house is the setting for dirty socks galore, frequent dance parties (okay, so it's mostly her, by herself, while her children look on in horror), and more laughter than she thought possible.
