Julia Quinn
#1 New York Times bestselling author Julia Quinn loves to dispel the myth that smart women don't read (or write) romance, and and if you watch reruns of the game show The Weakest Link you might just catch her winning the $79,000 jackpot. She displayed a decided lack of knowledge about baseball, country music, and plush toys, but she is proud to say that she aced all things British and literary, answered all of her history and geography questions correctly, and knew that there was a Da Vinci long before there was a code.

Kyra Groh
Kyra Groh wurde 1990 in Seligenstadt am Main geboren. Nach einem kleinen Umweg über die Uni Gießen, verschlug es sie 2012 nach Frankfurt, wo sie Trambahnen, Apfelwein und Supermärkte, die bis Mitternacht geöffnet haben, zu schätzen lernte. Sie behauptet gerne, neben dem Schreiben keine weiteren Talente zu haben – daher veröffentlicht sie nicht nur seit einigen Jahren humorvolle Liebesromane, sondern treibt auch hauptberuflich als Texterin ihr Unwesen. Sie hat eine Schwäche für gutes Essen, Instagram und Bilder von gutem Essen auf Instagram. Außerdem liebt sie Schachtelsätze, Erdnussbutter, Netflix und – aus Gründen, die ihr selbst manchmal schleierhaft sind – Sport.
