Hi !

I’ve been sitting on a little secret…and I can finally spill it!

Dragon, Actually, my cozy, spicy, holiday monster rom com, is getting a surprise Thanksgiving launch on 11/27!

Dragon, Actually is a short, standalone novella related to the How I Met My Monster series. It’s a quick, cozy read, perfect for passing the time while your turkey’s in the oven. If you love sweet stalking, awkward dragons, and fated-mate shenanigans wrapped in ribbons, this one’s for you.


And yes…you might recognize it! It went out last Christmas as a gift to newsletter subscribes. It’s now officially part of the series and ready to make your December extra warm and bright.

Love makes you do crazy things…like date the dragon who has a Christmas crush on you!


I’m just a small-town girl doing my best to make it in the big city. Between double shifts at the giftwrap counter and pet-sitting my roommate’s moody cat, this holiday season isn’t exactly shaping up to be merry and bright.


But then a gorgeous green dragon walks into my life—or, more accurately, buys every gift in the shop just to talk to me! Myrran is sweet, awkward, and way too charming for his own good (or mine). He says I’m his greatest treasure, and the way he looks at me could melt even the iciest December day.


But being a dragon’s holi-date comes with its own complications, like teaching him how to kiss, managing his overly enthusiastic dragon family, and learning secrets I’m not sure I’m ready to handle. Is this whirlwind romance my happily-ever-after, or will Myrran’s flames burn too hot for a girl like me?


This Christmas, love is in the air…and my new boyfriend is a dragon, actually.

FAN ART FEATURE

I was so surprised when Morally Shay made this incredible fan art for The Gargoyle & the Maiden. Artists are part of the lifeblood of the monster romance community, and I'm humbled that she spent her time and talent on my characters.

I love how she captured the deep emotions and heartbreak that Idabel and Brandt have to work through to earn their HEA! Please go follow her on Instagram and check out her other gorgeous work. She is such a generous artist who draws fan art for lots of books and deserves every like and share she can get!

The Huntsman’s Heart by Ami Wright

A deliciously dark and spicy why-choose fairytale retelling


When her evil step-mother ordered her killed, Princess Guinevere died at the hands of the undead huntsman. But he could not destroy her. Instead he tore out her heart and made her immortal like him.


Now Guinevere is more powerful than any queen. She will not bow. Not to fate. Not to the Huntsman. Not stone guardians who rise from their perches to serve her. They will kneel to her instead. Her gargoyles will fight for her, burn for her… and in the shadows, they will surrender to her.


The Huntsman’s Heart is a dark, spicy, why-choose retelling of Snow White meant for a mature audience 18+. It contains lots of sword crossing and a ridiculous amount of male yearning. You have been warned. This princess gets a full HEA where she does not have to choose between love interests, and neither do they.
