KJ Micciche (she/her/hers) is a novelist who writes contemporary romance with humor and heart. She hails from Queens, New York, where she spent countless hours curled up under the covers, reading The Babysitters Club as a kid by flashlight way past her bedtime. A lifetime believer in the power of literacy, KJ runs a non-profit organization that teaches kids with dyslexia how to read, and she pens her own stories as well. Proud mom of two little girls, she and her family live on Long Island and summer in Cape Cod. My Side of the Story will be her fifth novel. It will be released by Cosmo Reads on November 4, 2025.
