edit data

Cate Roi is a neurodivergent author who writes dark romance with a body count and a sense of humor.

These days, she conjures up morally messy love stories while enjoying the company of her partner-in-crime and their furbabies, who, unlike her characters, are pure and innocent. Probably.
