Ella James has been publishing independently since 2011 and has built a catalog of over 40 books across eleven series and subgenres. Her debut series, Stained, is a paranormal romance about fallen angels, while her Love Inc. series moves into contemporary territory with stories about an escort service that upends the lives of everyone connected to it.

James moves freely between romance subgenres. Her Erotic Fairy Tales series reimagines classic stories like Beauty and the Beast and Red Riding Hood with explicit romantic content. The Off-Limits Romance series focuses on forbidden relationships. The Dark Heart Duet and Sinful Secrets series lean darker, with themes of obsession and dangerous attraction. On My Knees is a more recent contemporary series, and Watch For Me appeared in 2022. This variety keeps her backlist interesting for readers who enjoy different flavors of romance.
