Celia McKinley

Evocatively transgressive writer focusing on erotica and psychological realism. Explicit but not crude, taboo but never degrading. Elegant Goth Librarian.

"I fell madly in love with a man who was 21 years younger than me.
He was incredibly handsome, chivalrous, and had a wonderful sense of humour.
He moved into my place, and baked the most delicious cakes"
