Nicole Northwood writes whimsical fairytales and emotionally resonant fantasy romance novels known for their lyrical prose and not-at-all historically accurate settings. By day, Nicole works as a project manager in the medical / information technology field, but by starlight, she conjures magical worlds filled with enchantment and wonder.

Her books—including The Night Garden and Beneath the Starlit Sea—invite readers into lush, atmospheric realms where magic is woven into the fabric of everyday life, and love is both a mystery and a revelation. Nicole also writes nostalgic contemporary novels under the name Nicole Bea, exploring themes of memory, vulnerability, and emotional healing.

She lives in Eastern Canada with her husband and a collection of multi-colored cats, surrounded by the kind of quiet that lets stories bloom.
