Author of Romance, Ruin, and Redemption
Elin B. Derene writes emotionally charged contemporary romance stories where hearts race as fast as engines, and love is forged in the fire of second chances. Her debut novel, Chicanes of Love, blends gritty character drama with heartfelt redemption, perfect for fans of scarred heroes, forced proximity, and slow-burn tension.
Known for crafting characters who are rough around the edges but impossible not to root for, Elin’s romance novels explore themes of healing, vulnerability, grief, and the messy, beautiful reality of falling in love after everything has gone sideways.
Her stories are rich with emotional depth and high-stakes romance, often pairing flawed main characters with fierce, unforgettable heroines. Whether you're into enemies-to-lovers, broken-but-beautiful heroes, or second-chance love that leaves tire marks on your soul, Elin’s books promise an intense, soul-gripping ride.
When she’s not buried in a draft or editing a scene for the hundredth time, you’ll find her building moody playlists, obsessing over plot twists, or sipping dangerously strong coffee while daydreaming about emotionally unavailable fictional men.
