C. L. Ledford was born in the city of Chattanooga, TN. Where she was raised by her grandparents to be a strong and independent person, she became an avid reader at the age of eleven when her fifth-grade teacher gifted her the book, The Black Stallion. With this book, her love of books grew.

In middle school, she began to write what would be one of many books swirling around in her head. Silver Moon Kiss came to life with two chapters and multiple scenes before it was packed away and not thought of until after she had become an adult. C. L. Ledford writes in Paranormal Romance and contemporary romance. Her first published book, The Second Alpha Heir released on June 14, 2022.

By this time, she had moved to a little town called Ringgold, GA, and married her husband, where they raise their three children and five German Shorthair dogs. Along with her love of writing and reading, she also enjoys hunting behind her dogs.
