 about the author

born and raised in the bronx, yokairy tavarez (pronounced jOH-KAi-ree Tah-VAH-REZ) published her debut novel, the blue brotherhood, in 2010. a decade later, she’s released a few other titles, including the "this is everything" collection, a compilation of short stories; redeem me, a romantic novel; and the lost highway, a thriller about one woman's escape from a killer whose face she’s never seen. Her most recent release, Broken, is an intricate tale following one woman as she grapples with love, loss and suffering.

equally obsessed with film as she is with the written word, yokairy filmed five of the six short stories in the "this is everything" collection and submitted them to various film festivals. she took the sixth short story, le emme, and turned it into a musical entitled “a story for another time,” which she plans to put on stage in the summer of 2024.

her most successful title to date has been project: femme, a heart-wrenching dystopian novel of struggle and survival chronicling one woman’s meteoric rise from humiliated slave to leader of a rebellion. keeping with this theme, she has begun work on the other parts of the project: femme trilogy for release in 2023 and 2024.

aside from writing, filmmaking and musical theatre, yokairy is a freelance paralegal and family mediator with a career in the legal industry that has spanned over two decades. she owns and operates still legal, llc, a virtual firm providing professional legal services for self-represented individuals and law firms, and is currently in law school pursuing her juris doctor.

yokairy resides in new york city with her family and continues to work on several other literary projects.
