Gia Chung was born in Valleyfield, Quebec, and now lives in Toronto, Ontario, where she balances life as a mother of three with a corporate career—and frequent daydreams about magical realms. Half Vietnamese and half Chinese, Gia grew up devouring Chinese dramas, which sparked the inspiration for her debut novel, Love in the Realms of Time. She is also the author of Those Between Us, a contemporary romance-drama that explores love, loss, and second chances. She has a soft spot for reality TV, a tendency to belt out ballads at karaoke, and a love for nights at the movies, Broadway shows, and live concerts. When she’s not writing, she’s usually planning the next family vacation or tracking down hidden culinary gems around the city.
