Elke Chantil is a debut fantasy author whose stories weave mythic landscapes, emotionally distinct characters, and magic. Her love of storytelling began in childhood, nurtured by nightly tales read aloud by her mother, and has since blossomed into the enchanting Hybiscus Snowflakes series, beginning with Whispering Snowflakes. Born and raised in Texas, she infuses her worlds with a touch of twang and a shimmer of myth, inviting readers into realms where identity and legacy bloom beneath the ice. When she’s not writing, Elke finds joy in family, her pets, woodworking projects, and the ritual of preparing Sunday meals while music and football fill the background.

"Two years ago, my cousin shared what she thought was just a short chapter—nothing more than a spark of an idea. From the moment I started reading, I was completely hooked. I begged her to keep going because I had to know where this story was headed. " Read more of this review »
