These scenes take way too much space in my head, so it’s your turn to take them so I can write the next book in peace 😌

Welcome to the Darverse.

Although my focus is primarily romance, I write stories that see you and never ask you to change.

They’re a little messy, a little chaotic. Sometimes sweet, sometimes spicy.

But always filled with love, growth, and, above all, hope. 

This might be my corner, but you’re welcome to find pieces of yourself here and between the pages of these stories 💖

For someone who hates talking about herself, Darlene seems to talk about herself a lot, sometimes in third person. Especially when she feels awkward.

She often feels that way. Perks (or not) of growing up with disabilities, being told you’re different, and constantly feeling out of place, even when inside the room.

So, she started writing about the love she wanted to give herself, the feelings she needed to explore in order to understand, and decided to share it.

She’s big on intimate conversations, and she’s always there to listen or talk. People who know her constantly says she’s sweet. But in reality she’s a sour patch kid.

First she’s sour then she’s sweet. 

Bonus points, she lets you past her surface leveled walls, you find a friend for life.

Just don’t expect her to text you back right away. 😅

Elysium Billionaires aka the billionaire novellas is a romance series about well, billionaire heirs falling in love.

It’s soft, messy, chaotic, sometimes steamy. But they’re stories with characters  that’ll stick with you even after you’ve finished the book.

When I tell you I’m obsessed with [redacted] and [redacted], I mean I’m O B S E S S E D.
