Thea Guanzon is a New York Times, USA Today, Indie List, Sunday Times, and international bestselling author from the Philippines. Born and raised amidst the sprawling sugarcane fields of Bacolod City, she eventually moved to Metro Manila, where she graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in International Studies from Miriam College. She previously worked in electoral management and women’s rights, scribbling fanfiction on legal pad during her lunch breaks, until her stories caught the attention of American editors and the rest, as they say, is history.

When she’s not writing, Thea can be found traveling, playing Dungeons & Dragons, annoying her cats, drinking espresso martinis, or fangirling over villains and enemies-to-lovers ships.
