✒️ Charlotte Essence

Charlotte Essence is an Illinois-born, Texas-based author of dark romance and dystopian seduction. She survives off tea, tarot cards, and her readers’ tears. A lifelong writer and doctoral student in clinical psychology, she weaves trauma, obsession, and survival into every bleeding line of prose.

Her stories walk the blade’s edge—where love is dangerous, beauty is brutal, and nothing is ever truly safe. If it doesn’t ache, it’s not worth writing.

When she’s not building worlds soaked in lust and ruin, you’ll find her bingeing anime, curating literary mischief, or leading her dark book coven, the Ink & Poison Muse Syndicate.

Her motto?
Passion with a body count.
