Victoria Covelheart
Victoria Covelheart is a Spanish-born author who’s been writing romance since she was 6 (back when her stories featured knights, dragons, and princesses, of course). Now, she focuses on contemporary romance, creating characters who are strong yet vulnerable, and romances that feel as comforting as the warmth of the sun on your skin at sunset. When she’s not writing, you’ll find her studying, working, cuddling her dogs, getting tattooed, listening to music way too loudly, or rewatching Pride and Prejudice (2005) for the billionth time this week. Yes, really—this week.
