About
Elle Wildes
Lunsford

Elle Wildes writes romantasy for grown women—stories woven with longing, betrayal, second chances, and the kind of slow-burning magic that leaves a mark. Her worlds are steeped in enchantment and consequence, ruled by women who refuse to be tamed and men who are more haunted than heroic.
A lifelong book lover and former English teacher, Elle holds a bachelor’s degree in education, a master’s in curriculum and instruction, and is currently completing her doctorate in educational leadership. She now uses everything she learned about stories, systems, and human nature to craft layered fantasy worlds full of power shifts, emotional reckoning, and just enough kissing to count.
When she’s not writing, Elle can be found haunting the fantasy aisle of her local bookstore, making moodboards she swears aren’t procrastination, or walking the coastline with a plot twist in her earbuds.
She writes for the readers who’ve lived through their own battles and still believe in magic.
