Haliya May

I’m Haliya May—Filipina-Black author of dark, smutty romance where women of color don’t just get a seat at the table—they flip it. They’re not the quirky best friend or the moral compass. They’re the obsession. The downfall. The reason a man begs.

​

My stories are soaked in heat, trauma, power, and praise. If you like your book boyfriends possessive, your heroines worshipped and weaponized, and your plot lines laced with danger, degradation, and devotion—you’re home.

​

I write from my scars and my survival. Every book is a reclamation: of pleasure that hurts, pain that frees, and love that destroys before it saves. And best of all? These women don’t need their partners to survive—they choose them. As it should be.

This isn’t a soft place to land. This is the shelf your English teacher warned you about. The one that dog-ears your boundaries and makes you blush in public.
