About the Stories
Kaelis Knight writes Gaslamp Fantasy Romance, immersive and emotionally driven tales set in worlds of Victorian elegance, social constraint, and forbidden magic.
These stories are written for readers who love to linger in the atmosphere. If you are drawn to fog-drenched streets, candlelit rooms, and magic that exacts a real cost, you will find yourself at home here. Romance unfolds slowly, shaped by hardship, choice, and the courage it takes to trust and love in an unforgiving world. The burn may take its time, but when it ignites, it burns hot.
What to Expect:
Atmospheric Worlds: Shadowed city streets, layered histories, and carefully crafted magic systems where power always carries consequences.
Slow-Burn Romance with Heat: Relationships that develop with intention, intimacy, and emotional honesty, allowing desire to build until it erupts in fully realized, on-page passion.
Emotional Stakes: Stories that prioritize character growth, sacrifice, and resilience, grounding the romance in meaningful emotional connection.
While the prequel ends on a tragic cliffhanger—which is resolved in Book One—the main series embraces all the elements that define a powerful romantasy: immersive magic, deep passion, and a hard-won Happily Ever After.
About the Author
Some writers find their calling. Others are found by it.
Kaelis Knight’s love affair with romance began at thirteen, during a summer when she was meant to be doing homework and instead discovered her mother’s hidden stash of paperbacks. One novel featuring a half-dressed duke was all it took.
Curled up in a corner, she disappeared into a world of passion, longing, and love against all odds.
She finished that first book in two days. Then she reached for the next. By summer’s end, she had devoured them all, and something inside her had shifted. Reading love stories was no longer enough. She wanted to live them.
That passion never faded. It guided her through years of study and into a career many readers only dream of: translating romance novels for a major publisher. For several years, she had the rare privilege of spending her days immersed in other people’s love stories, carefully shaping every whispered confession, every moment of tension, and every kiss into words that would make new readers fall in love all over again.
It was everything she had ever wanted—until it wasn't enough.
Years of translating other authors’ work awakened stories of her own. Characters began to whisper. Worlds demanded to be built. Love stories refused to remain silent.
So she finally did the thing she had been circling all along. She began to write.
Today, Kaelis Knight creates the kind of romantasy she has always loved: stories woven with magic, emotional tension that tightens with every chapter, and romance that burns slowly and fiercely enough to leave its mark. She writes for readers who want to feel something. For those who stay up too late because they need just one more page. For everyone who believes that love, in all its forms, is the most powerful magic of all.
Gaslamp Romantasy Reads™ is where those stories live.
She hopes readers find as much joy in reading them as she found in bringing them to life. And if the stories linger, if they refuse to let go once the last page is turned, then they have done exactly what they were meant to do.
