AMY CHRISTINE PARKER is the author of the critically acclaimed GATED, ASTRAY, SMASH AND GRAB, FLIGHT 171, and most recently, YOU'RE DEAD TO ME. While she spends much of her time dreaming up new stories, she also likes to travel, go to the movies, and read scary stories late into the night—preferably under the covers with a flashlight.

ELISE KOVA is a New York Times, USA Today, and internationally bestselling author of over 30 books, including most recently ARCANA ACADEMY and DRAGON CURSED. She enjoys telling stories of fantasy worlds filled with magic and deep emotions. She lives in Florida and, when not writing, can be found playing video games, drawing, chatting with readers on social media, or daydreaming about her next story.

MADELINE MARTIN is a New York Times, USA Today, and International Bestselling author of books like THE BOOKLOVER'S LIBRARY and THE SECRET BOOK SOCIETY. One of her favorite parts about writing is researching all the things that go into her books. She has written books based in many countries and across many time periods, from medieval to the seventeenth century to the Regency and now World War II with her historical fiction.
