Author | Katie Mackenzie

Katie Mackenzie doesn’t just write stories, she cracks open the human heart and spills it across the page. Specializing in dark romance and splatterpunk, she thrives in the places most writers fear to tread: the haunted corners of love where devotion becomes obsession, where intimacy carries a blade, and where desire burns so hot it threatens to consume everything in its path. Her books are raw, unflinching, and drenched in blood, lust, and vulnerability. For Katie, darkness isn’t something to escape from it’s where truth hides, where characters reveal the most primal parts of themselves, and where readers are forced to confront both horror and beauty in equal measure.

Her worlds are not for the faint of heart. They are violent, seductive, and unapologetically brutal, laced with moments of tenderness sharp enough to cut. Katie writes for the readers who crave intensity. The ones who want stories that linger like a bruise, that leave them unsettled, aching, and yet unable to look away. Every word drips with the understanding that love is not always gentle, but it is always powerful and sometimes, it’s the most dangerous weapon of all.

Katie Mackenzie is the pen name of Katie Mackey, who also writes contemporary love stories. Where Katie Mackenzie delivers darkness and destruction, Katie Mackey offers hope, healing, and happily never afters. Two names, two worlds but both bound by a relentless need to explore the many faces of love.
