About Elani

Meet Elani.

Contemporary Black Romance author.

​

She’s an 80s baby, Scorpio Sun Libra Moon with a penchant for headwraps, kimonos and statement jewelry.

​

Writing has been Elani Elizabeth's passion for almost fifteen years, but her path to publication was a journey of its own. After over a decade as a successful Etsy seller and homeschooling mom to two teenagers, Elani finally decided to turn her love for storytelling, which started with fan fiction, into a full-time career in 2023.

​

Her inspiration is deeply rooted in the vacations she spent in Chicago during her college years. Those days fueled a lifelong obsession with African-American culture, film, and romance (she is forever chasing that Love Jones vibe).

​

After cutting her teeth writing popular Twilight fanfiction (Wolfpack girlies unite, go Blackwater!) back in 2017, Elani released her debut novelette, The Love She Hates, in July 2023. She followed this up with the fan-favorite novel, The Love She Wants, a spicy single-dad romance that remains her most popular read on Kindle Unlimited.

​

Elani is a Caribbean Queen whose characters are much like herself, "wholesomely imperfect" and on a journey to a better life. If you love heroines at a crossroads, reformed bad boys, and spicy scenes with a guaranteed HEA, you’re in the right place.
