Jill Aster writes dark romantasy and fantasy romance for readers who like their love stories dangerous, their magic forbidden, and their heroes a little villainous.

Her stories deliver morally gray heroes, fierce heroines, fated bonds, enemies-to-lovers tension, possessive anti-heroes, and slow-burn obsession that turns into power.

She is the author of the Riftborn Series, a four-book dragon rider fantasy romance beginning with Obsidian Sky, with books two through four releasing in Fall 2026. Also coming Fall 2026: the Marrowbound trilogy, a dark gothic romance, and Bargains and Blood, a dark fae fantasy romance series.

If you love dragon rider academies, dark romantasy, gothic fantasy, shadow magic, fated mates, and possessive heroes who fall first and fall hard — you’re in the right place.

Purchase her books from Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and IngramSpark; signed copies are also available through this website. You can sign up to get updates about their writing here.
