​Stefanie Contreras is a Latinx author, geek girl, one-half of the Pop Culture Junkees podcast, an officer with Geek Girl Brunch and a volunteer with WriteHive.

She was born and raised in Phoenix, Arizona and graduated with an M.S. in Communications from the University of Oregon and a B.S. in both Journalism and Advertising from Northern Arizona University.

Growing up as an avid life-long reader and fan of sci-fi, fantasy, and YA, Stefanie published The Merry Maids trilogy on Amazon - and is now working on a new fiction series featuring Latinx superheroes.

When she’s not reading or writing, she’s probably making TikToks, plotting her next comicon cosplay, or watching re-runs of Bob’s Burgers. Her favorite fandoms include WWE, Star Wars, Star Trek: TNG, X-Men, Harry Potter, Wonder Woman, and Coffee.

Starkiller:
The merry Maids (Book Three)


Now available on Amazon!
Alyvia Tippin is not a fan of big changes, and yet that's all her life has been since leaving the Academy.

Now that she's discovered more about her abilities, the Council seems determined to add even bigger changes to her life. Despite The Merry Maids' protests, the Council wants Alyvia to train with the Shadows, to figure out how her Amplifier skills could be useful to their team.

At least she can stop worrying about her best friend now that she knows he is one of the Shadows.

As The Merry Maids' quest to find the Starkiller pieces nears completion, their course is set to collide again with Maks, and all of the horrors Lyv thought she left behind when she escaped Cayberra.

Change is inevitable.
​Alyvia just hopes her team can survive.


Starkiller: The Merry Maids (Book Three) is available on Amazon in paperback or as an e-book. Please leave your reviews on Amazon or Goodreads to let me know what you think!
