About Us

Inspiration At Every Turn

Just like most modern love stories, it started with a simple text.

In 2020, we bonded over a shared love for books, language,

and the art of a well-written kiss scene.

That spark became a partnership, and eventually, Hana Fox Literary Boutique.

We don’t believe in one-size-fits-all.

We believe in a thoughtful and artful adaptation,

in making sure your voice stays yours, even as your story crosses borders.

Today, our team of talented literary translators, editors and proofreaders

works with authors across the globe,

bringing heartfelt, steamy, and unforgettable stories to readers in multiple languages.

What We Do

We love bringing your words to life,

making sure your stories resonate with readers around the world.

Whether you want to seduce Spanish readers,

charm the French, make Italian fans swoon or leave the German breathless,

we make sure your story travels beautifully.

We don’t just translate. We adapt. We elevate. We transform.

Your voice, your tone, your rhythm: it all matters.

We take your words seriously, making sure the translated version feels just as swoony, snarky, or slow-burny as the original.

From first kiss to final proof, our editors, proofreaders, and beta readers work together to make your book shine.

No awkward phrases. No off-brand moments. Just a gorgeously translated novel readers can’t put down.

If you're writing a story that matters to you, it matters to us.

Whether you’re self-publishing or working with a traditional house,

our team is here to bring your world to new audiences.

If your stories bloom in Italian, we'll help them flourish in English.

And we go beyond that: we guide Italian authors to make their mark on the international stage.

Our Team

We’re not just translators, editors and proofreaders.

We’re romance nerds, word lovers, and trope connoisseurs with a serious soft spot

for second-chance stories, one-bed situations, and grumpy/sunshine dynamics.

From editorial precision to genre fluency, we each bring something special to the table.

We care deeply: about the words, the voice, and the author behind them.
