Meet the author
Livia Angela Jaen
Like Andreea, the main character of her Within the Order of the Dragon trilogy, Livia Angela Jaen emigrated from communist Romania to the United States at the age of fifteen. She attended high school, college, and medical school in Miami, then spent thirty years working as a physician.
Yet storytelling was always close to her heart. An avid reader from an early age, Livia dreamed of becoming an author even as she pursued her career in medicine. Her historical fiction draws on her connection to Romania and her fascination with the ways history, identity, and personal courage shape our lives.
Today, Livia lives in Florida with her husband and two daughters, where she continues to write and bring her stories to life.
