I love writing unhinged fantasy romance, but I hate writing bios.

Any books posted on my goodreads shelves are books I loved! I judge a book by the vibes and emotions I felt when I finished.

Rhiannon Hargadon

There was a willow I loved by a creek; sometimes I slept there. I was never afraid, alone in the dark. There was nothing to fear from water and trees and fairytales.

The real monsters were always people.

...

Can we forgive injustice?
Do we accept the fate forced upon us?
Should we fight, no matter the cost?
How do we move on from great loss?
What would you trade to relive one moment?

I write folklore and mythology inspired dark fantasy. Emphasis on dark. I don't shy away from serious issues and emotions: suicide, depression, mental illness, abuse, death, infertility, and assault are all in my books. These are not for pleasure or shock value, but because I want to write about authentic pain and suffering, and how we heal ourselves through the bad th

C.J. Holmes

CJ Holmes lives in England, where it's cold and damp, and it's always raining - which provides her with enough time to write stories about magic, fantasy and romance. She'd like to escape to somewhere warm but that might mean that she spends too much time sunbathing and not enough time writing books.

She lives in a quaint English cottage which would have one of those idyllic gardens if her fingers weren't the opposite of green. Fortunately, her husband and children don't seem to mind that almost everything she tries to grow ends up dead. She enjoys drinking wine and gin, which conveniently coincides with her love of reading and writing, as well as running and watching bad TV shows. You have been warned....

My love of reading has ebbed and flowed throughout my life but my love of fantasy has never faltered. Typically, I’m hanging with my family, reading fantasy, romantasy, or thrillers when I'm not writing. But let’s be honest, I’m writing a lot these days.

I received a Bachelor’s Degree in Communications, helping me pursue my dream of being an Author.

I’m thrilled to be reaching for my dreams and I hope you take the leap of faith and chase your own.

Arisa Villar

Arisa Villar is an author of dark romance and dark fantasy. Since she discovered the dark side of literature in her university years, she hasn’t stopped exploring it. From sweet romances to erotic horror, she reads it all.

Anya Elizabeth

I write heartfelt, romantic fiction with all the things I love most: slow burns, found family, emotional depth, and a little bit of spice. My romance motto is: flirt first, kiss later.

My debut novel, The Imperfect Plan, released in 2023. My upcoming novel, Six Summers Apart, is the first in The Summer Hearts Series—a swoony, sun-drenched romance about old friends, missed chances, and unforgettable summers.

When I’m not writing, you’ll probably find me daydreaming about beach picnics, rereading my favourite love stories, or working on a third-act twist in a café somewhere.
