dark fantasy romance & romantasy

Got questions? I've probably been asked them before. If something isn't answered here, feel free to reach out — I'd love to hear from you.

The Books
Where should I start?
If you're new to my work, start with The Wolf She Kept — it's my debut novel and the first book in The Mates series. It's a great introduction to the universe. You can find the full reading order here.
Are your books part of a series?
Most of them, yes! I'm building an interconnected fantasy universe across four series — The Mates, The Courts, The Reapers, and The Others. Each series follows its own protagonists and can be read independently, but the worlds are connected. I also write standalones that exist outside the main universe.
What's the heat level?
The Wolf She Kept is spicy with open-door scenes — explicit content is on the page. If that's not your thing, I promise the plot and the feelings are worth it too, but consider yourself warned (or delighted).
Where can I find content warnings?
Content warnings are listed on each book's product page. If you have a specific concern and want to check before purchasing, feel free to send me a message — I'm always happy to help readers make informed choices.
Do your books end on cliffhangers?
Each book has a satisfying ending for its central romance — no cliffhangers on the love story. There may be broader world threads left open that carry into future books, but I'd never leave you hanging on the couple.
About Cy
What do you write?
Dark fantasy romance, romantasy... I am primarily a romance author who might dabble into any number of sub genres! I also focus on sapphic and queer stories, but that doesn't mean I don't write straight romances — I just write them less frequently. I have been building this universe for over a decade, and I'm just now starting to share it with the world!
