About

Katelyn Elizabeth Lighthall writes stories that stay with you long after the last page—often because the characters refuse to leave quietly. Whether it’s slow-burn romance tangled with secrets or sweeping fantasy threaded with desire and danger, her work is rooted in raw emotion, unforgettable chemistry, and the kind of twists that make you gasp out loud in public.

A lifelong book lover with a background in language and editing, Katelyn weaves prose that balances heart and heat, magic and mayhem. Her stories explore the messy beauty of connection, the ache of almosts, and the fire of second chances—because love is never just a straight line.

When she’s not writing, she’s curating beautiful editions for her Whatnot shop, talking tropes on TikTok, or chasing her German Shepherd, Echo, who thinks she’s the true main character.

Katelyn lives and writes in California, surrounded by citrus groves, stacks of books, and the occasional plot twist.
