MONSTER COVER REVEAL! 👀📖
Mar 28, 2025 6:16 pm
Hi !
I’m so excited to share about something new with you today—a cover reveal for my upcoming series, Nightfall Guardians! This series has been on my mind for literal years, so I’m thrilled to finally be able to talk about it.
It’s a high fantasy monster romance series about gargoyle guardians and the human women they protect. It’s going to have all the size difference, pining, and forbidden love you could dream of. If you liked my Salt Planet Giants books, you’re going to love Nightfall Guardians.
The gods of Tael-Nost are long dead, but their magic lives on—bleeding into the land, corrupting kingdoms, and fueling a war to take their place.
Goblins march from the south. Fae scheme from the north. Dragons wait in the west for their chance to conquer what's left. And at the heart of it all, humans cling to survival, shielded by the only creatures powerful enough to stand against the chaos: the gargoyles.
Bound to protect humans from all others, the gargoyles are as unbreakable as the stone they’re made from. Loyal. Impervious. Untouchable.
Until now.
When human women and their monstrous guardians cross forbidden lines, their defiant love could fracture an ancient alliance—one that has kept them safe for centuries.
A farmer’s daughter. A disgraced noblewoman. A captive queen. Each must face the choice: sacrifice their hearts for the sake of their people… or risk everything for the monsters who would die for them.
For fans of stoic monster heroes, Gothic fantasy worlds, and forbidden romance, the NIGHTFALL GUARDIANS series is launching this spring! 🤍
COVER REVEAL
The first book in the Nightfall Guardians series is a prequel novella called The Gargoyle & the Spinster. It’s an age gap forbidden romance about a woman who doesn’t need a man and the gargoyle who needs her. There's language barrier, spicy time above the clouds, and size difference to make your toes curl.
The gorgeous cover art was created by the incredible Phantom Dame!
The village spinster. The monster who guards the gate. One night that changes everything.
Daughter of a fisherman, Maggie’s true love has always been the sea. Maybe that’s why she never married. But when her father grows too sick to captain his ship, she shoulders the weight of her family’s survival, even if it means accepting a marriage proposal from a greedy sailor who wants their fishing boat more than her.
It’s not the life she dreamed of, but dreams don’t put food on the table.
Gargoyle Evrard has guarded Brinehelm for years, watching over the village gate. Now, war calls him away to fight the encroaching goblin horde. Though he doesn’t question his duty, he will miss the brave human woman who meets his gaze without fear.
When Maggie learns he’s leaving, she offers him a goodbye to remember: One reckless night. No promises. No regrets.
They both know it can’t last beyond the morning.
But with Evrard gone, Maggie must face a future she doesn’t want—and a man determined to take everything from her. And when Evrard reaches his new post, he realizes leaving her unprotected might be his greatest mistake.
She’s done sacrificing herself for others. He’s done following orders. And this time, nothing will keep them apart.
The Gargoyle & the Spinster is a short, steamy prequel to the Nightfall Guardians series filled with forbidden love, a protective gargoyle, and the human woman who earns his ultimate devotion.

Here's a new book you might enjoy!
Mistletoe (Monsters of the Nexus Book 3)
By Nancey Cummings
This orc is trouble.
A lifetime of disappointment has hardened Emma. Not even the warmth of the holiday season can melt the ice surrounding her heart. When she discovers an orc hiding in her barn, she’s prepared for the worst.
Hal is on the run from something and has many secrets. He’s huge, fierce, and covered in scars, but there’s a vulnerability in his eyes that softens her. He claims he has gaps in his memory, but how much of that is true and how much has he chosen to forget?
Emma doesn’t know how far she can trust the massive green orc. Against her better judgment, she offers him sanctuary on her secluded farm.
With powerful people on the hunt for Hal, is Emma safe? Is her heart?
Love,
Sara
