Emilia Rhodes (she/her) Executive Editor Atria

Emilia Rhodes is an Executive Editor at Atria Books, acquiring and editing romance, fantasy, and romantasy. Some of her favorite romance tropes include friends-to-lovers, second chances, love triangles, and forbidden love, especially when the setting becomes a character in itself. When it comes to fantasy, she loves surprising plot twists, character-driven high-stakes, and is a sucker for a set of trials, a vengeance mission, or an academic setting. Prior to joining Atria, Emilia has previously held positions at HarperCollins, Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, Alloy Entertainment, and Simon Pulse. Her list over the years has included New York Times bestsellers The Vampire Diaries series by L.J. Smith, Hooky by Míriam Bonastre Tur, These Hollow Vows by Lexi Ryan, The Thousandth Floor by Katharine McGee, Ruined by Amy Tintera, Thirst by Christopher Pike, and Kissed by an Angel by Elizabeth Chandler, as well as National Book Award finalist Out of Reach by Carrie Arcos, Kindling by award-winning author Traci Chee, Crumbs by Danie Stirling, The Ravens by Danielle Paige and Kass Morgan, The Prison Healer by Lynette Noni, Maya and the Rising Dark by Rena Barron, The Probability of Everything by Sarah Everett, The Merciless by Danielle Vega, Let’s Get Lost by Adi Alsaid, and unOrdinary by uru-chan.
