When Melissa sees Laila for the first time, it is just a moment. A glance - and yet more than that: a crack in the world through which something real and genuine seeps. What begins as a fleeting encounter turns into a quiet rebellion against everything Melissa has ever been: a model daughter. Greg's girlfriend. Part of a life that is not hers. It's not love at first sight. It's a stumble. A pause. A quiet, inner awakening.

When Melissa sees Laila for the first time, it is just a moment. A glance - and yet more than that: a crack in the world through which something real and genuine seeps. What begins as a fleeting encounter turns into a quiet rebellion against everything Melissa has ever been: a model daughter. Greg's girlfriend. Part of a life that is not hers. It's not love at first sight. It's a stumble. A pause. A quiet, inner awakening. Between lecture halls, bar lights and a city Melissa thought she knew, she begins to ask questions for which there are no perfect answers: Who am I when I don't have to please anyone? Who was I before I learned to hide? A literary-poetic coming-of-age story about love, identidy and the moment when you decide to really live. The book has been completely revised in 2025.
Katja's love for the written word developed - as so often in life - only at second glance. During her school days, she did not enjoy the prescribed literature until several poetry projects sparked a serious interest in writing. While studying English literature, she delved deeper and deeper into more complex works. She not only devoured books, but also began writing short stories and the first drafts of books. To this day, her passion for words remains unbroken and has produced numerous poems, short stories, and book projects. She usually decides between German or English based on the first sentence. After work or on weekends, Katja spends her time writing or outdoors with her camera. Her favorite subjects include not only power lines, but also all kinds of lost places.

Her novel She Came at Dawn in the genre Lesbian Romance was published in 2013, but completly overhault in 2025. A new project in German are already in progress. Later this year, her new novel (Genre Dystopian Young Adult LGBT) will be published. Her favorite authors include classic writers such as Ernest Hemingway and Virginia Woolf, but also modern novelists such as Suzanne Collins and Carlos Ruiz Zafón
