ABOUT C. Y. BENTON

C.Y. Benton is a storyteller who believes that the most compelling worlds are built at the edge of danger.

 

She grew up loving supernatural legends, bold heroines, and the kind of books that blur the line between desire and destruction. Now, through her debut series, The Harper Rayne Chronicles, Benton follows a supernatural enforcement agent with a secret lineage and the deadly evolution that pulls her into a world where bloodlines, politics, and desire collide.

​

At the heart of Benton’s writing is a fascination with power: who holds it, who wants it, and what happens when a woman discovers she was never meant to be ordinary. Before stepping fully into the writing world, C. Y. Benton built a career leading people, shaping culture, and developing high-impact talent across global organizations. That experience, working with leaders, reading people deeply, navigating the unseen, gave her an eerie sense of how power truly moves.
Those insights now fuel every character, every villain, every alliance, every supernatural moment.

 

Whether she’s designing supernatural worlds, building fierce female aesthetics, mapping hidden corridors of power, or plotting new twists that strike in the least expected ways, C. Y. Benton lives for dark fantasies, magnetic characters, and stories where nothing (especially love) is ever safe.
