{Don’t Want You Like a Best Friend is my favorite}

[gay-art-vibes]

Mistakes were made is a personal fave of mine rn 💅 (it used to be a fanfic so I’m biased)

[insomniac-arrest]

Once upon a time . . . there was a wicked queen. A hungry wolf. A thing in the dark. A dragon thief. A falling star, crooked in the sky. The lines between heroine and Other, fair and wicked, are illuminated in five transformative stories.

Five fairy tales, five perilous journeys, five star-crossed romances. A Snow White retelling that focuses on the wicked-queen-to-be and her mirror. A take on the classic parable of a deer pursued by wolves. A powerless maid making a deal with Shadows. A wishing star pursued to the ends of the earth and the knight sworn to return her to the sky. A princess trapped by a dragon with her only visitor a burglar.

The Crooked Stars is a collection of sapphic stories that shows there are many ways to read the stars and many ways for love to find a way into places it never was before. If you enjoy enchanting tales of adventure and magic, you'll fall in love with this mesmerizing collection that contends with the cruelty and beauty in fairy tales.

Official release date April 16th, 2024.

Sucker Punch: Pretty Devils is coming out TOMORROW!

It's been one year since Liv4Brutality stole my heart and they haven't let go yet, probably never will. When WWE broke them up, I was so devastated the only way I found to cope with the loss was... writing a whole romance novel inspired by them. And here it is now. ❤

L4B stans, are you on board?

Liv doesn't have much: a lousy job as a nightclub waitress she hates with every fibre of her being, a hostile mother with whom she has to share a tiny council flat, and a chronically empty bank account due to her mother's drinking and gambling problems. Her entire world crashes when she suddenly finds herself jobless and homeless. Her only hope seemes to be the chance to earn a full-time contract at the Beatcave wrestling club in Camden. She's not an excellent wrestler, but her old friend Rue did teach her something back in the day, so maybe she could have a chance..

Walking into the try-outs as a convinced straight girl, she meets Raisa, the most gorgeous young woman she has ever laid her eyes upon. Raisa is a tall, grumpy goth with the face of an angel and a ridiculously ripped body who seems to understand her better than Liv can understand herself. As they go through the three-month probation period at the Beatcave together, the two slowly start growing closer and little by little Liv finds herself drawn to beautiful Raisa in ways she can't explain.

A DEMON'S NAME UPON YOUR LIPS

It is the curse of ADHD that, at least for me, I'm always running to the next project, and then the next, chasing the new shiny thing. And that has served me well in my creative endeavors, as much as it has stymied me. But I really do think that I caught something special in my first novel, A DEMON'S NAME UPON YOUR LIPS. And thanks to how my brain works, I rarely ever promote it! Which seems unfair for how much effort I put in, alongside my friends who patiently helped me edit it.

It's a sapphic romance between a (newly minted) Duke and the demon she summons. It's a fantasy which takes place in a secondary world loosely based on Victorian-era Europe, though without any of the queerphobic, or even sexist, hatred endemic to its real-world counterpart (or even to our modern day). It's fast paced, gay as fuck, and I poured my heart and soul into it.

I'd be honored if you picked it up; it's only $5.99. About the price of a Latte.

Grab it at the following places:

itch.io (PDF, ePub, and mobi all included!)

Kobo link (ePub version)

Apple Books, Smashwords, and a few others (ePub version)

Amazon (Kindle version)

Barnes and Noble (ePub)

Synopsis below the cut:

Lucia is a succubus, a demon with the power to shape the emotions and passions of mortals. Summoned often into the world of Melodia, she takes pride in upholding her demonic contracts to the best of her abilities. She likes to think she does her job well … though a string of recent failures say otherwise.

Talia, the recently elevated Duke of Fallmire, summons Lucia for a simple reason: to pose as her wife and fulfill marital obligations to the satisfaction of Parliament. All to say, just a few weeks of walking around the estate and playing nice with the neighbors before a conveniently tragic death. Quick and easy.

But immediately, Lucia smells blood in the water. Behind closed doors, the Duke plots vengeance upon those who killed her father—and the demon wants in. Revenge, after all, is much more fun … and more lucrative, to boot.

But can Lucia predict how hard she’d fall for the Duke? (Not a chance). And can the Duke find it in her vengeful heart to love?

Spice Level: lightly described nudity, fade-to-black sex.

64,000 words.
