About us

Hi, I’m Kelsey - mum of two, primary teacher by day and book-obsessed night owl by choice. I'm @books.aremylovelanguage on Instagram and TikTok, where I scream about romantasy, morally grey men and the books that keep me up way past a sensible bedtime. I’m literally the girl who shuts the bedroom door on her husband just so she can read in peace.

Ember and Dusk is my way of bottling that feeling when a story won’t let you go. I’ve always loved how scent can transport you straight back to a favourite character, a swoony ship or a fictional world you never really left. These candles are for readers who want their shelves to smell as dramatic, cozy and unhinged as their TBR.
