By C.K. Darling
Hey y’all, I’m C.K. Darling—your gateway to quick, charming romances filled with Southern sass, swoon, and a sprinkle of spice.
Whether it’s over lunch, a lazy Sunday morning, or on your daily walk, my debut series Sweetheart Scones & Stories is the perfect companion. These bite-sized love stories clock in around two hours—ideal for readers and audiobook lovers craving a full dose of heart, humor, and heat without the time commitment.
Set in the small town of Peachwood Grove, Georgia, each book can be enjoyed as a standalone or binged back-to-back—like your favorite potato chips… you can’t read just one! From second chances and enemies-to-lovers to forbidden romances and holiday flings, my stories celebrate love in all its unpredictable, toe-tingling forms.
Need a break between heavier reads? These cozy, steamy romances are the perfect palate cleanser—quick, satisfying, and guaranteed to leave you smiling (and maybe a little flushed).
Up next? The Holiday Matchmaker Series—three festive stories launching November 7, 2025, that are sure to jingle your bells.
When I’m not crafting small-town love stories, you’ll find me watercolor painting, knee-deep in glitter, or enjoying sweet tea with my family and a pack of rowdy pets.
