Hi there! I'm C.I. Potts - a storyteller obsessed with flawed characters, messy emotions, and love that blooms in the most unexpected places. I write emotional romance across genres, from crumbling dystopias to quiet contemporary moments and everything in between.

At the heart of each book I ask myself: "What would love look like amongst..."

You'll find broken systems, broken hearts, and characters who learn to rebuild both - piece by piece.

*Expect betrayal.
*Expect tension.
*Expect hope where it's least expected.


If you're into slow burns, layered emotions, and characters who feel a little too real - welcome. You're exactly where you belong.
