Kova Killian was born and raised in sunny Southern California, where she finds inspiration in everything from epic books and binge-worthy movies to her ultimate muse: music. At home, she embraces the beautiful chaos of life with her CNA husband, their four wild kids, and a cat who’s definitely plotting world domination.

​

Kova’s been spinning stories since third grade, when a Halloween tale she wrote was deemed a little too spooky for her teacher. These days, her writing blends dark fantasy with cozy romance, featuring ancient temples, magical mishaps, stained glass windows, and fierce women with battle axes, or sometimes, cozy towns and love-struck witches.

​

When she’s not writing, Kova loves camping in breathtaking spots, wandering through Renaissance faires, or headbanging at metal shows. Whether she’s crafting stories of grit and adventure or heartwarming small-town romance, Kova’s worlds are always brimming with magic and a little bit of mischief.
