Hi Fantastic Fantasy Reader!


I just realized I haven't sent out a newsletter since before the New Year! I hope you're having a fantastic January so far. I've been busy with writing and making TikToks for BookTok, but it's been a good kind of busy. That's the best kind, right?!


On the writing front, I'm still typing away on The Winter Fae's Bride. Just hit a major spicy scene! It's taking me some time to get it "just right," and I feel as if I'm pushing the envelope of my previous spiciness zone.


Here's a snippet with Ellohen asking our heroine, Jane, a question. I bet you can soon guess what's going on:


“Do you like that?”

She nodded, too overcome for words to form easily. 

“No, you need to say it.” 

A pause. Where was her voice again? “Yes, I like it.”

“What do you like?”

“You finger down…there.” By Earten’s magic, she couldn’t believe what was coming out of her mouth. It felt scandalous, freeing, and somewhat frightening if she thought about it. 

“Down where?”

~~~

I hope you enjoyed that little steamy moment! The book's on preorder right now (the clickable image above has the link).


Now onto featured books and group promotions!

In a world where magic means power, a "small" gift is a curse. 


Thea was not blessed with power. Her gift of devouring plants and absorbing their hidden abilities does not make her stand out among her peers. Until a young man from the other side of the river sees something in her that no one else has seen before. When his family mercilessly strikes at her pride, he makes a point to ease the sting.


Alistair is not like his family. He has no interest in magic or wealth. He can see through the veil of the world into the faerie realm, and that has no use in his family. He never understood the desire to write to the girl across the river, but she turns his world of grey into a life of color. At the first opportunity, he meets with her. The second, he falls in love. And the third, he knows he wants to marry her.


Until the cities across the river go to war. Their lives are shattered, ripped apart, and thrown asunder. Then, ten years later, a chance meeting brings them back together. He needs a secretary. She needs a job. Neither realized they were about to be thrown into each other's arms once again. And this time, he doesn't intend to ever let her go.

Freedom is her desire. Vengeance is his price.


Slip into this scintillating tale of a young royal whose loyalty is torn between the prince she was sold to and the tempestuous knight determined to ruin her. 


Imryll is unfit to be a princess. Everyone has always told her so. So when the king stuns everyone by crowning her the prince’s consort, her life is completely upended, crushing any lingering dreams of a future away from the suffocating Rhiagain court.


Still reeling from the news, she meets Drazhan, the formidable, mercurial knight who wins the right to be her personal guard. But when he defiantly refuses any show of respect, a dangerous spark ignites between them, one she doesn’t know how to extinguish. Worse, she’s not sure she wants to.


Yet she can’t shake the sense Drazhan is hiding something important. He refuses to explain why he surrendered a life of privilege to become her guard. The roaring vengeance burning in his heart, scorching him from the inside out, is a painful mystery Imryll can’t solve.


But she will.


Because Drazhan’s revenge doesn’t just start with Imryll.


It ends with her.

The fae Duke of Night doesn't believe in love—but he'll claim his mate nonetheless.


Mating is a matter of politics for Night, not the heart. To prevent a forced union that will plunge the Lunar Court into war, he must find and bond his true mate.

When he lays eyes on Rain, he knows the shy forest witch is the bond mate he's been searching for. Unprepared for the intensity of his attraction, Night makes an offer that would keep his priorities straight and his court safe: a marriage of convenience. Any eligible woman—mortal and immortal alike—would leap at the chance to become the powerful duke's bride.


But Rain isn't interested.


She’s lived outside of society too long to ever fit into Night's world of shapeshifting tricksters and back-stabbing politicians. And Rain demands more than the trappings of marriage. She wants a match with heart.


Night doesn't have the luxury of time to change his mate's mind. War looms closer and the Lunar Court is caught in the middle. Out of options, the fae duke sees only one choice.


Kidnap his bride.
