Welcome, Wicked Dreamer.

You’re here for a story that ruins you—just a little—aren’t you?

Where magic is dangerous,
fierce women save broody men,
every shade is morally gray,
and steamy scenes don't fade to black.
Then turn the page … if you dare.

What People Are Saying
About Rowyn's Books

"There are a handful of books that I have read in my life that cause me to pause and absorb, this is one of them. How Rowyn uses words to describe a scene is the equivalent of a painter putting a brush to canvas. Mesmerizing, breathtaking, and astounding to behold as it takes shape."

Feral & Bookish Podcast

"If you're a fan of the Empyrean series, the Hunger Games series, the TV show Severance, Wicked, and the Throne of Glass series - this. This is what you want—no, need—to read this year."

Camille D., Pixigonal

"Of Withering Dreams is one of those books that you wish you could experience for the first time all over again ... [it] left an indelible mark on me."

Vicki S., Goodreads Reviewer

"This book completely blew my mind—I don't think I'll ever be the same after reading it."

Hiya, I'm Rowyn Adelaide

My work blends atmospheric world-building with emotionally driven romance, often exploring themes of transformation, angst, and resilience. When I'm not writing or devouring stacks of romance novels, I'm usually globe-trotting, rocking out at concerts, counting down to spooky season, or singing karaoke (very poorly). I live in the Midwest with my favorite creatures: my husband, our dog Audrey Shepburn (aka the goodest girl that ever lived), and our chaotic cat Stormy, who is equal parts villain and sidekick.
