Sally Emberwyn writes emotionally charged, character-driven fantasy and paranormal romance.

​

With a sharp focus on internal transformation, Sally’s work doesn’t shy away from darker themes, but always leads her characters toward growth, connection, and the kind of love that doesn’t just feel good—it changes you.

​

Her debut novel, The Truth Behind Those Eyes, blends slow-burn romance, supernatural secrets, and the raw ache of longing into a powerful story about reclaiming yourself when the world has tried to rewrite you.

​

When she’s not writing, Sally can usually be found dreaming up new stories, doom scrolling Tiktok, drinking too much tea, or losing herself in a good book.

​

Sally writes dark paranormal romance for people whose healing isn't linear.

Her debut series, The Unveiling, started in 2006 and spent almost two decades marinating before she understood what it was really processing. Turns out, writing 300,000 words about sacred bonds and morally grey devotion is cheaper than therapy.

​

Sally writes for readers who want characters that mirror the spiralling, the setbacks, the three-steps-forward-two-steps-back reality of actually being neurodivergent and traumatised. No sanitising. No forced arc. Just people trying to survive themselves long enough to figure out if love is worth the risk.

​

When she's not writing, Sally's doom-scrolling TikTok, drinking too much tea, or getting lost in other people's books. She's UK-based, AuDHD, and has two kids, a patient husband, and a menagerie of animals who judge her life choices.
