Mission

About House of King author collective

Welcome to House of King — where bold stories reign and unforgettable characters demand your full, undivided attention.

We’re not your typical publishing house. In fact, we’re not a traditional publisher at all. House of King is a boutique indie author collective, built by authors for authors, here to support creatives who want to tell daring, emotional, and deeply addictive stories without playing by the old-school rules.

Our mission is to champion authors, help them grow, and empower them to succeed. Whether that means self-publishing, building a brand, or simply getting powerful stories into the hands of readers who need them most, we’re here for it.

We live and breathe romance in all its forms. From faith-filled Christian love stories and closed-door slow burns to darker, steamier, and more twist-filled tales that leave your heart wrecked and your Kindle sizzling. Whether it’s a possessive bodyguard, a morally grey billionaire, a rockstar on the edge, or a sweet hometown softie, our stories are made to move you.

This is a house built on guts, grit, grace, and greatness. And there’s always room at the table for you.

Mission

Empowering bold voices, one jaw-dropping story at a time.

Our mission is to provide a safe, supportive, and transparent environment where authors can thrive—whether you’re writing soft, sweet love stories or gritty, high-stakes chaos. We’re not here to water down your work, smooth out your edges, or ask you to fit a formula. We’re here to amplify your voice, help you navigate the wilds of indie publishing, and make sure your book lands in the hands (and hearts) of readers who crave exactly what you’ve created.

Whether your story is faith-filled and tender or dark, dangerous, and delicious, we believe in empowering authors to write what matters most to them—with zero shame and zero gatekeeping.

We believe:

  • Emotion matters more than perfection
  • Heat and heart can absolutely coexist
  • Sweet and swoony is just as powerful as dark and dirty
  • Authors deserve support, not gatekeeping
  • Readers want more than safe, formulaic fiction—they want messy, real, unforgettable stories that stay with them

Genres

What We Publish:

We champion high-impact, emotionally resonant romance across the spectrum—whether it’s sweet, spicy, or downright unhinged. The authors in our collective lean into obsession, vulnerability, trauma, healing, faith, found family, and everything in between, all wrapped in plots packed with tension, heart, and grit.

Whether you crave love stories with bloodstains, backstage passes, small-town grudges, slow-burn pining, or stalkers with twisted devotion—we’re here for it. Our authors don’t shy away from morally grey characters, difficult themes, or the kind of raw, messy emotions that haunt you long after the last page.

Our favourite flavour of chaos includes:

  • Dark Romance
  • Reverse Harem
  • Romantic Suspense / Military Romance
  • Rock Star Romance
  • Billionaire / Mafia / Possessive MMC
  • Contemporary Romance (sweet and steamy)
  • Small Town / Second Chance
  • Closed-Door & Slow-Burn Romance
  • High-Angst / Emotionally Wrecking Love Stories
  • Obsessive Love / Stalker Romance
  • Serial Killer Romance (yes, we went there)
  • Paranormal Romance

We believe every kind of love story deserves a seat at the table, as long as it’s told with fire, honesty, and emotional depth. Each author in the House of King collective brings their own flavour of chaos, connection, or healing. Check out their individual profiles to see what kind of heart-punching magic they’re serving up.

Founder

Hi, we’re Sam & Jane

A mother-daughter duo, lifelong book lovers, and the founders of House of King.

Books have always been at the heart of our lives. From sweet romances to dark antiheroes, magical worlds to small-town love stories, we’ve always believed every story has the power to leave a mark.

That’s why we created House of King—not as a traditional publisher, but as an author collective. A place built by authors, for authors, where creativity is celebrated, knowledge is shared, and writers are supported every step of the way.

Whether you write closed-door romance or the darkest morally grey love stories imaginable, we believe there’s room for every voice and every genre. Great stories don’t fit into one mould—and neither do great authors.

If you’re a reader, welcome. We can’t wait to introduce you to your next favourite author.

If you’re a writer, pull up a chair.

There’s always room at the table.
