Kira Deveraux writes dark romance where the power is real and so is the price.

Her romantasy runs to thorn and steel and scale: bonded pairs, dragons who were never tame, courts that trade in favors nobody can afford to call in. Her contemporary work swaps the courts for boardrooms and keeps the architecture exactly where it was.

One rule holds across all of it. Two people who keep choosing each other, and a world that keeps handing them reasons not to.
