Romance for the Hearts that Want More

Violet writes contemporary romance for dreamers.

She believes that no matter what your story has been so far, it’s never too late to fight for the life that makes your heart sing and experience love in the ways you deserve to be loved. As a late-diagnosed autistic woman, survivor, and warrior of endometriosis and central sensitization syndrome, she does not shy away from the heavier realities of life such as grief, mental and physical health, complicated family dynamics, and recovery. She hopes to make you laugh out loud, giggle and blush, make you swoon, and make you cry, sometimes all on the same page. Most of all, she wants to help you believe there is a light at the end of even the darkest of tunnels.

Her favorite tropes are small town romance, all things autumn and nostalgia, and second chances. Bonus points for Grumpy x Grumpy or Black Cat x Black Cat. She has a soft spot for historic architecture and stories that send her down research rabbit holes to discover things she never knew about the world and the people who have lived in it.

Her unofficial bio is that she brings a certain shelves her smut next to Ishiguro and Vonnegut vibe to the function, and her favorite quote is from Emily Dickinson’s letters to Susan Gilbert: “But my heart wants more.”
