Dark Fantasy / Intimacy, Power, and Systems
Intimacy is not Safety. It is structure.

About Violet
Violet R. Jackson is the author of dark romantasy that interrogates desire, power, and the stories cultures tell to make cruelty feel inevitable. Her work centers morally complex characters, coercive systems, obsessive bonds, and the blurred line between fate and control.
​
By day, Violet is an academic whose scholarship focuses on ethics and sexuality in dark romance and romantasy. That academic lens deeply informs her storytelling: love in her worlds is rarely redemptive, "fated bonds" mask darker truths, and romance unfolds within structures designed to exploit, not protect.
​
Her series, A Dance With Darkness Visible combines brutal emotional intensity with layered mythology, posthuman themes, and psychologically grounded portrayals of attachment, survival, and power. She writes for readers who want romance that unsettles as much as it consumes.

Love cannot heal, cannot redeem, cannot absolve.
