Demelza Carlton

Demelza Carlton is an Australian author of paranormal romance and fairy-tale retellings, publishing prolifically across a large number of interconnected series. Her Romance a Medieval Fairytale line reworks classic stories such as Beauty and the Beast, Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty, and The Little Mermaid into standalone romance novels -- Enchant, Dance, Awaken, and Silence among them -- while her Ocean's Gift series follows a nautical, mermaid-adjacent paranormal romance thread beginning with Ocean's Infiltrator. Her Mel Goes to Hell books take a darker, comic-horror approach to paranormal romance. Carlton's output is defined by rapid, high-volume series publishing, revisiting familiar fairy-tale and folklore frameworks through a consistent romance-genre lens rather than working within a single connected fictional universe.
