I am Vivienne Dark, an author who finds inspiration in the contrast between Berlin’s sunlit literary cafés and its pulsing underground nightlife. This dual existence shapes my storytelling—sensual narratives that honor both the psychological complexity and physical intensity of desire.
My upcoming series reimagines classic fairy tales through a BDSM lens, while my poetry collection “Violent Desires” captures the ephemeral moments between dominance and submission with unflinching honesty.
Born and based in Berlin, I draw creative energy from the city’s unapologetic embrace of artistic and sexual freedom. The clubs that have made Berlin infamous serve as both research grounds and spiritual home—spaces where fantasy and reality blur just as they do in my fiction.
I believe true eroticism begins in the mind. My characters’ emotional journeys always precede their physical surrender, creating stories that resonate long after the last page is turned.

The Red Riding Hood Series
A modern woman. A cabin in the woods. A neighbor with hungry eyes.
Ruby thought her grandmother’s cabin would be a perfect retreat from city life. Then she met her new neighbor—a man she’d once known in another context, where power exchange wasn’t just discussed but celebrated. As their paths cross in the secluded forest, Ruby discovers that some appetites only grow stronger with time.

Philosophy
I write with the conviction that our most powerful stories reveal how our darkest desires often contain our greatest truths. My narratives honor consent, communication, and emotional authenticity while never shying away from intensity.
In my fiction, as in life, the exchange of power is never about weakness—it’s about the profound strength found in conscious surrender and the responsibility inherent in accepted control.
Every story is an invitation to explore aspects of desire that mainstream narratives often overlook or misunderstand. I write for those who recognize that sexuality is not separate from our humanity but an essential expression of it.
