Jessica McNicholas is an author, wife, bestie, tia, mother, daughter, and reader, but most importantly: she’s the writer who dreams about having her books on your shelves one day!

Jessica is a Mexican American born and raised in Austin, Texas, where she grew up with her head above the city skyline and her heart in magical tales. A hopeless romantic with a wild imagination, she was shaped by Disney princess movies, fantasy novels, and the action-packed world of anime.

She strives to blend enchantment with emotional depth, always circling back to what matters most to the human experience. When she’s not writing, you’ll find her chugging coffee, hanging with her family, or dreaming about her favorite characters.
