ARC Opportunity for How to Meet a Monster 😍

You can read my new satyr novella early!!!

Hi, lovely ARC reader!


It's been a while since you've heard from me, so I wanted to let you know what's ahead…and offer you the opportunity to read an early copy of my upcoming novella, How to Meet a Monster! It's about a waitress who decides to crash a monster college masquerade party and hooks up with a horny satyr! 😍 It will launch in mid-October.

For the past year, I've been busy writing books, even though you haven't seen them yet. The Monster Mating Academy series is airing on Patreon as serials this year, but the books will launch on Amazon in 2027. Right now I have launch dates scheduled for January (lizardman), March (minotaur), June (mothman), and September (kraken)! I also have a shared-world book coming out in May and possibly another title in the fall!


That means, even though 2026 has been slow for ARCs, next year is going to be BUSYYYYY. Clear your 2027 schedule, because I have tons of fluffy, spicy monsters for you to read. 🥳



To whet your appetite…I'm inviting you to ARC read How to Meet a Monster! It's is a prequel novella for the Monster Mating Academy Series. It's only about 100 pages, and it'll be part of the upcoming Monster's Bite anthology, which drops mid-October. The exciting part? The anthology will be FREE FOR EVERYONE! I hope you'll read all the stories in the anthology once it launches, but you can get a head start by checking out my story now!

One night with a monster turns into something more…

Everyone knows the Pickering Institute of Cross-Kind Understanding is the school where humans and monsters go to hook up. So when I hear about their Halloween masquerade, I decide it's the perfect time to sneak in and find a monster of my own.


I glue together a Lady Luck costume, borrow a student ID, and crash the party.


That's where I meet a certain seven-foot satyr in a toga. Not only does he feed me grapes and kiss me senseless, he also helps me escape campus security when they're hot on my heels! Somehow, despite our species and size difference, we have an instant connection.


Too bad our perfect, magical night can't last forever. He can't leave campus until he graduates, and I can never show my face there again… so how can we ever be together?


How to Meet a Monster is a cozy monster romance novella with a party boy satyr hero and a heroine whose hookup with a monster changes her life. It's a prequel for the upcoming Monster Mating Academy series!
