Meet K.C. Hawthorne
I’ve been in love with stories for as long as I can remember.
As a little girl, I was always the one with a fantasy novel in my hands, completely captivated by magical worlds, impossible adventures, and the belief that there was always another kingdom waiting just beyond the next page.
Before I ever became a novelist, I was a poet. I’ve always believed words have the power to comfort, inspire, and stay with us long after the final page is turned.
Then I became a mom.
Every night at bedtime, my children would ask for a new adventure. Together, we followed a little boy named Blueberry Jam and a little girl named Strawberry Shortcake, whose stories changed with every telling. Those quiet moments became some of my favorite memories, and they reminded me that stories have a way of bringing people together.
As the years passed, my love of storytelling grew right alongside my love of reading. Eventually, those bedtime adventures led me back to the worlds I’d always dreamed of creating.
Today, I write dark fae romantasy filled with dangerous kings, resilient heroines, ancient magic, impossible choices, and unforgettable love stories. My novels are written for readers who crave immersive worlds, emotional stakes, and characters who stay with them long after the final chapter.
Whether I’m writing about cursed crowns or bedtime adventures, the heart of every story is the same:
Stories have the power to transport us, transform us, and remind us that hope can be found even in the darkest places.
When I’m not writing, you’ll usually find me curled up with a fantasy novel, planning my next adventure, or dreaming up another world waiting to be explored.
Welcome to Thorn Court. I’m so glad you’re here.
