About H.D. Carlton
H.D. Carlton is an International and USA Today Bestselling author known for her darkly compelling romances that push readers to the very edge of their comfort zones — and keep them there willingly.
She lives in Oregon with her husband, two dogs, and a cat. When she's not writing, she's watching paranormal shows and wishing she were a mermaid. Her favourite characters are of the morally grey variety, and she firmly believes that everyone should check their sanity at the door before diving into her stories.
Carlton burst into the dark romance spotlight with the Cat & Mouse Duet — Haunting Adeline and Hunting Adeline — which became a BookTok phenomenon and cemented her reputation as one of the genre's most daring voices. The series was notably banned on Amazon at one point due to its explicit content, which only amplified the fandom's obsession.
Her writing style blends psychological tension, gothic atmosphere, and deeply flawed characters into stories that are as uncomfortable as they are impossible to put down.
