Maia Everest Milan

Maia Everest Milan becomes one of Aron Rucyznski’s best friends. She is described as short, with her brown hair in loose ringlets covering her face. She has “a killer smile and a melodious accent that [ Aron] can’t place”. Her eyes are hazel-grey, and she has long lashes and rosy cheeks.

Maia is a ballerina, but she’s forced to quit ballet because of her build-- not limber enough to be an dancer. Her friends call her May and her family calls her Maisey. She has one older sister, Mara Milan, with whom she's close, and one younger brother, Maven Milan. Her sister Mara calls her 'little ballerina sociopath' since she's a ballerina and extremely empathetic to the emotions of people around her.

She used to have a crush on Matt Davies, and then Sage Saylor, and then decided that she would rather be single. She is 15 years old (in Aron, Not Aphrodite), and skipped a grade.

(Spoiler Alert!) Maia is 19 years old in the sequel, Forever Yours, Maia.
