🌙Andromeda Delacroix’s uncomplicated life has been written in the stars since before she was born. Marry the man chosen for her by her family. Succeed her mother as High Priestess of the Delacroix Coven. Preside over all preternaturals of New Orleans.
But when her sister falls prey to a mysterious illness and a beloved member of the lycans is brutally murdered, her priorities take a dramatic turn. Solve a murder. Save her baby sister. Finally come into her own magic. Fight her forbidden feelings for not one, but two—maybe three?—powerful men.
Silvan, the great-nephew of the murdered lycan, becomes an unlikely ally in her quest to save her sister, despite that fraternizing between preternaturals is expressly off-limits. Equally so is the strange, ethereal bond she’s already forming with Bastian, the vampire king. And Dane, the warlock she’s been promised to, isn’t quite the little rule follower she pegged him to be.
But all the hot preternaturals in the world can’t solve what’s broken inside of her. Her candescence is late. She feels defective. Abandoned by fate. What is a witch without powerful magic?
As the clock ticks down, Romy must decide if duty and desire can exist together, but first, she’ll have to dig deep within herself to find what’s blocked her candescence.
Oh, and the lycan, vampire, and warlock who adore her?
All sworn enemies.
Things just got complicated.

Yesterday was my 5 Year Publishing Anniversary (or “Pubiversary” as some of us call it. Authors are allowed to make up words, right?). The day was a busy one for unrelated reasons, so I didn’t get to celebrate as I should have. But five years is a long time, and my celebration will come in the form of reflection.
I am often asked some variant of the question: “I’ve written a book. How do I self-publish it?” The question, as well as the answer, can feel overwhelming. Certainly whenever I’m asked, I often think, where do I start? What level of detail do I share? How much of my time can I give to assisting?
