Unlocking the first page
When a brilliant, hyper-controlled genetics professor walks into her classroom, an exchange student’s quiet, rule-bound life shatters—plunging her into a dangerous web of corporate espionage, secret games, and a love that could get them both killed.
Atheena Maximoff is a Filipino author who has been telling stories since she was ten years old. Long before her stories found their way into printed pages, they lived online, shared with readers who taught her that perhaps the most beautiful part of writing is finding people willing to stay until the very last page.
She writes because her imagination has always been too full to keep to herself. Her stories revolve around sapphic romance, fierce women, complicated feelings, forbidden attractions, and love that often begins in the most unexpected places. From enemies-to-lovers romances and slow-burning connections to stories woven with mystery, suspense, and unexpected twists, she enjoys exploring the many ways women can fall for each other—and the chaos that comes with it.
English is not her first language, but she has never let that stop her from telling the stories she carries. Every finished book is a quiet reminder that stories need not be written in perfect words to find their way into someone’s heart.
She is the author of Piece of You and Veni, Vidi, Vici, a story she could not stop thinking about long after she first imagined it. She hopes you won’t be able to stop thinking about it either.
