Mimika Cooney
Author
Hi, I’m Mimika Cooney. Author, mindset coach, and unapologetic lover of stories that stir the heart and challenge the mind.
Originally from South Africa, I’ve lived in the UK and now call the U.S. home. With a background that spans professional photography, TV hosting, marketing strategy, and brain-performance coaching, I bring a wide-angle lens to everything I do. My storytelling is shaped by a global worldview, a passion for emotional depth, and just enough sass to keep things interesting.
I’ve written 14 books (so far!) and have been dubbed the “Personal Trainer for Your Mind” thanks to my work helping high performers rewire their thinking. That same obsession with growth and transformation shows up in my fiction, where my characters don’t just fall in love, they evolve.
My Sensibility Romance Series blends clean, closed-door contemporary romance with pop culture sparkle, cinematic settings, witty banter, and rich emotional arcs. Think soul-stretching love stories with depth, faith threads, and international flair. Guaranteed to deliver a happily ever after without the heat.
When I’m not writing or coaching, I’m probably on the ice practicing figure skating spins, or stabbing people for fun as an amateur fencer (don’t worry, it’s sanctioned). Because who says romance authors can’t duel?
If you love stories that make you feel—and maybe even think differently—you’re in the right place.

‘Mind Reader’ is an emotionally rich clean contemporary romance about falling for the one person who sees through your defenses.
This clean contemporary workplace romance is set in the New York City tech startup scene, and old York, England.
