LeliaDKnight

Hey loves 
          First, thank you. Thank you for sticking with me, for the comments, the votes, the messages, and the insane amount of love you’ve shown my stories. It means more than you know.
          Some of you have been asking about Liar Boys (the Harrow University hockey series) — I see every single comment and message. That story is not abandoned, but it’s currently on hold while I work through some personal stuff and give it the attention it deserves. I promise I’ll be back to those unhinged hockey boys soon.
          In the meantime… I’m finally doing something I’ve been dying to do for over a year.
          I wrote Dare to Ruin (Blackthorn Legacy Book 1) a while ago, then deleted the entire draft in a moment of chaos. But this story never left me. It’s darker, twistier, and more addictive than anything I’ve written before. Think Forbidden Legacy vibes — the obsession, the secrets, the “I shouldn’t want them but I can’t stay away” energy — but with a new elite academy, a deadly game of dares, blackmail, and three very different, very dangerous boys who all want to claim Monroe Kingsley.
          If you loved Georgia and her four boys, I think you’re going to lose your mind over Monroe, Lincoln, Beckett, and Asher.
          This is a why-choose dark romance with heavy themes (full trigger warnings in the next chapter). It’s obsessive, possessive, morally gray, and unhinged in the best way. I’m currently editing and rewriting it chapter by chapter, and I’m so freaking excited to share it with you again.
          So… are you ready to play the game?
          Welcome to Blackthorn Academy.
          The dares are starting.
          And once you’re in… there’s no getting out.
          Thank you for being here. I can’t wait to drag you into this world with me.
          Let me know in the comments:
          Which vibe are you most excited for — Lincoln’s intense protectiveness, Beckett’s golden-boy charm, or Asher’s quiet tech-god intensity? 
          All my love,
          Lelia D. Knight

New pen name, same dark heart 
          Hey everyone — I’m officially writing as Lelia D Knight from now on.
          My new dark romance series Ashen Court starts with Ruin Me — a possessive hockey captain, secret society, obsession, and all the deliciously fucked-up things you love.
          First chapters dropping soon. If you’ve been here for my previous work, thank you for riding with me into the shadows.
          New profile, new vibe. Let’s get obsessed.
          — Lelia D Knight

Hi, Apologies for plugging in! I hope it's okay to write in your message board (⁠─⁠.⁠─⁠|⁠|⁠）
          
          If you're onto dark fantasy, epic quests, enemies-to-lovers, chosen ones, morally grey characters, etc. Then my novel might be for you.
          
          
          Two years. Three kingdoms. One rule – don't trust each other.
          They're already failing at that.
          A wanted thief. A commander who won't stop chasing her.
          And a enemies-to-lovers slow burn that'll wreck you.
          
          —
          Hunt me, Then

Could you please post the order I’m supposed to read your books. I was just about to start but the name/ numbering is confusing. Thank you I look forward to reading them.

 Author Update – Crestwood, Forbidden Legacy & What’s Coming Next 
          
          Hey loves! Quick update from your chaos queen — because there’s a lot happening behind the scenes, and I want to keep you in the loop.
          
           Blood Oath and ️ Crown of Venom — the final two books in the Crestwood series — are still live and staying right where they are. These versions have been read thousands of times and they hold so much of Georgia and the boys’ journey. If you’ve already fallen in love (or bled out emotionally) reading them, thank you. You were part of their first breath.
          
          That said… I do plan to revisit these books down the line with full edits and a more polished “social edition” release. These rewrites will deepen the slow burn, tighten the structure, and lean even more into the dark romance unraveling I know you love.
          
           Why now? Because Forbidden Legacy is on the Wattys Shortlist (!!!) and my new series is officially in the works — and I want to give it the time and obsessive love it deserves. Once the dust settles from launching the new project, I’ll be circling back to update Blood Oath and Crown of Venom in the background.
          
          So if you’re diving into Crestwood for the first time now, welcome. If you’ve been here since chapter one—thank you for trusting me. And if you’re waiting for the updated versions, just know they are coming, and they’ll hurt beautifully in all the best new ways. 
          
          Stay tuned, stay unhinged my loves

 Update from your favorite chaos gremlin author (and her very opinionated fictional boyfriends):
          
          Hey friends 
          I’ve just returned from a much-needed vacation (sunshine, snacks, questionable impulse purchases — 10/10, would recommend).
          BUT I’M BACK — and catching up on all your beautiful, emotional, unhinged, glorious comments and messages.
          
          JAXON: “We missed you. Don’t act like we didn’t. I personally started a spreadsheet titled ‘People I Love Who Abandoned Me for Sand.’ You’re in column A.”
          
          KELLEN: “She’ll be reading every comment. Don’t panic if it takes time — she’s thorough. I have a system. No, you can’t see it.”
          
          BASH: “She needed the break. And she is catching up. Obediently.”
          
          GAGE: “If anyone tries to guilt-trip her for disappearing, I’ve got a belt with their name on it. Figuratively. Mostly.”
          
          Also — while I was gone, something huge happened.
          
          FORBIDDEN LEGACY made the Wattys Shortlist.
          Out of thousands of stories, 95 were chosen… and mine is one of them. I’m still in awe.
          And it wouldn’t have happened without you.
          
          Your votes, your support, your completely feral love for Georgia and her very stabby harem — I see it. I feel it. I’m so, so grateful for it.
          
          JAXON: “If we win, I’m getting a commemorative hoodie that says ‘I survived the Wattys and all I got was emotionally obliterated by Lia (AKA your favorite unhinged Author Elle DD).’”
          
          KELLEN: “And I’m logging every single vote. Not obsessively. Just… precisely.”
          
          BASH: “Keep voting. Stay loyal.”
          
          GAGE: “And don’t stop now. We’re not finished.”
          
          So: thank you. I love you. I’m back. I’ve missed you. Let’s burn a path to victory together.
          
           Lia aka Elle (& the Murder Committee)
          

⚠️ Update from your friendly neighborhood chaos author:
          
          Okay sooooo… the cover for Forbidden Legacy had to get a glow-up thanks to some slightly murdery Wattpad rules  (respectfully, I get it — rules are rules, even for blood queens).
          
          BUT DON’T PANIC:
          I swapped it out with something even darker, bloodier, and more on-brand for my feral little heirloom of a story.
          
          TLDR:
          New cover. Same secrets. Same knives. Same girl no one saw coming.
          
          Love you forever,
          Elle DD (your favorite legacy-wrecking menace) 
          

Congrats on getting shortlisted for the wattys!
