Tia Williams had a fifteen-year career as a beauty editor for magazines including Elle, Glamour, Teen People, and Essence. In 2004, she pioneered the beauty blog industry with her site Shake Your Beauty. She’s the author of The Accidental Diva, the It Chicks series, and The Perfect Find—now a Netflix film starring Gabrielle Union. Her novel, Seven Days in June was an instant New York Times bestseller, the June 2021 Reese’s Book Club pick, and is being adapted into a TV series. Her latest bestselling novel, A Love Song for Ricki Wilde, was named one of the year’s best romances by New York Times and Amazon. Her fiction often mirrors some of her own lived experiences featuring a Black female protagonist working in the beauty industry or a single mother living with chronic pain—and are full of romance, comedy, history, magic, and stories of Black excellence.
