C. Karloff began crafting her own stories as a teenager but took a detour from writing after finishing school to pursue non-profit work with recovering drug addicts. Her journey took her into the heart of South Africa, where she encountered people from all walks of life, from the privileged to those in rural shanty towns.
Her own love story unfolded when she met a real-life romantic hero—a fellow bibliophile—whom she instantly married. Together, they moved to the USA, where she enjoyed a successful career as a sales coaching executive at an Inc. 500 company before returning to her first love: writing Gothic Regency romances.
Now living with her husband on the Florida Gulf Coast, Karloff is passionate about kindness and the resilience of the human spirit. Inspired by the incredible people she's met around the world who dared to change their lives, she writes mischievous tales of life-altering decisions and transformative characters. When not writing, she can be found savoring excellent coffee and doing her best to resist cookies.
