I’ve always been a storyteller at heart. From writing poetry that found its way onto websites to crafting articles, editing, and even working as a publishing manager for a children’s book company—I’ve had my hands in words for a while. But now? Now I’m diving headfirst into my own love stories, and I’m finally releasing my debut romance novel, Through the Glory and the Mess: A Hartgrave Tellers Story in July 2025.

It’s a story that blends everything I love: music, drama, and the kind of fiery, complicated relationships that remind me of Fleetwood Mac. If you’re a Swiftie, a Bridgerton girlie, or someone who loves a bit of rockstar romance with a side of chaos—you just might fall in love with this one too.

Quotes by Aya Winter  (?)

“People always assumed I was fearless. Unstoppable. Destined for this.
 But the truth?
I was a fake-it-’til-you-make-it girl.
 I just did the damn thing with shaking hands, a stomach full of nerves, and a head full of chaos.
I had guts. I had grit.
But I had to push myself—off the ledge. Onto the stage. Through the fear.
Down the metaphorical fire escape and into the spotlight.
Impostor syndrome had followed me like a shadow for years.
I wasn’t a rock star. I was a girl with classical training, a good voice, who felt things deeply and had a hell of a lot of luck on the way.
So how the hell did I end up here?
I wasn’t born for this.
But every time I stepped out there—I proved myself wrong.
 And proved everyone else wrong, too.”
Aya Winter, Through the Glory and the Mess: Music. Fame. Power. Trauma. And a love that refuses to die quietly.

“You once told me music saved you more times than you can count. And you wanted to share that with as many people as you could. And you’ve done it—even when it cost you everything. Even when it hurt. Even when it bled. You’ve taken hit after hit to stay true to that calling, because that’s who you are.”
