K.D. Falcon

Author of the upcoming Just Go-For It, a reality-bending, rule-breaking plunge into forbidden love, identity, and underground tunnels.

K.D. Falcon writes darkly playful fiction that often features magic portals and coming-of-age themes. Her upcoming novel, Just Go-For It, follows Hannah Johnson, a 27-year-old Ivy League graduate who's succumbed to a life of mediocrity. She spends her nights holed up in her childhood bedroom eating mac n' cheese and watching reruns of Two and a Half Men, waits tables at a "fast casual" restaurant, and has no social life whatsoever. But all that changes when she discovers a velvet-draped tunnel behind a Rite Aid, slipping through the cracks of reality and into an underground dance party. With the help of a mysterious green drink, Hannah embarks on a mind-bending journey filled with mesmerizing strangers, uninhibited connection, and increasingly questionable decisions. Just when she thinks she’s found her place in this new world, an unexpected job tutoring for a wealthy family—and her growing infatuation with the alluring Mr. Goldstein—shakes up her reality all over again. He’s everything she shouldn’t want, and far too entangled with the world she’s been hired to quietly slip into. But beneath their clipped exchanges and lingering glances lies a deeper pull neither of them can ignore. As lines blur and secrets simmer, Hannah is forced to confront how far she’s willing to go for the life she wants—and who she might become in the process.
