Smut with Substance™
Devotion. Obsession. Dark Magic.
Founder, Moonlight Manuscripts · Indie Author & Mentor
Dark romance dripping in obsession, vengeance, and magic. These are not stories for the faint of heart.
The Priestesses Nightmares
Adaline must embark on a long and impossible journey to find out the truth about her past and her identity. Having nothing to rely on but her wits, her visions, and her magic — called upon to make the ultimate choice, will she follow her fate or crumble under the weight of her destiny?
The Darkness Within
A year after the loss of her powers, Adaline returns to the Haven to confront everything and everyone she left behind. When the darkness within threatens to destroy her, she must again bend to the will of fate. Will she lean on the family that chose her — or let the darkness swallow her whole?
The Space Between Graves
The most anticipated chapter yet. A title that breaks the pattern, a cover that rewrites the rules, and a story that will leave you breathless in the dark. Coming 2026.
Illusions of Lust
Calliope: I never asked to be a savior. This island has become my prison and my penance. Then he arrives — my Nightmare, tall, dark, and vengeful, vowing to bury me. Perhaps I’ll let him.
Aztyn: Calliope Veritas took everything from me. My obsession grows like a thorned vine. I’ll keep her close — my Little Muse — until I carve the truth from her bones.
“For the writers who thrive in the dark and the dreamers who craft worlds from shadows.”— Kylie Doyle · Moonlight Manuscripts
Kylie Doyle
“Indie Author & Mentor. Conjurer of immersive bookish events. Devotion. Obsession. Dark Magic.”
Kylie Doyle is a Canadian author, creator, and the mind behind Smut with Substance™ — a signature blend of dark romance and romantasy where heat and heartbreak walk hand in hand. Living in a cozy off-grid tiny home in the wilds of Alberta, she writes stories that are lush, obsessive, and emotionally devastating.
Kylie is the founder of Moonlight Manuscripts, where she guides writers through the full alchemy of storytelling, and the co-founder of Novel Night Events, curating immersive literary experiences that feel like stepping into a living fairytale — often dark, always unforgettable.
Through her books, mentorship, and moody, magical content, she has become a trusted voice for indie authors and readers who crave transformation, authenticity, and stories that dare to go deeper.
Moonlight Manuscripts is not a publishing company — it’s something built for the indie author who refuses to do things the ordinary way. Kylie guides writers through the full alchemy of storytelling, from first draft to final page.
Currently open: 1 full-time client spot and several smaller package clients for 2026. Inquire at @moonlight.manuscripts.
Novel Night Events creates immersive bookish experiences that feel like stepping into a living fairytale — sometimes dark, always unforgettable. From intimate signings to large-scale galas, Kylie & her co-founder Veronica conjure spaces where readers and authors connect in the most magical ways.
The crown jewel: After Dark — A Dark Romance Bookish Gala. Chapter 2 arrives September 26th, 2026.
