I thought I would surprise you with preview for my next novel: Sleeping Beauty No More. The book will be released on June 17th, 2021, if you want to grab a copy. This is again a fantasy book and a fairy tale retelling.
I hope you like it 😊

Her prince never came.

She woke up after sleeping for a hundred years. She had been forgotten in her tower. Now she needs to find out why. What happened in the past? How could sixteen-year-old Aurora reclaim her lost kingdom?

Aurora meets a handsome thief named Devon. He had been using her tower as his hideout. Devon and his gang of thieves, known as the Circle, promise to help defeat the witch who put Aurora under the curse. Together, they will help her end the wicked witch’s tyranny over her kingdom.

Can Aurora change the lines of her destiny, or will she forever remain the princess that was forgotten?

Sleeping Beauty No More
Release date: June 17th, 2021
Thank you for reading and supporting me on my writing journey 🥰

Hi everyone,



Today I wanted to update you all about my writing. My newest book, Sleeping Beauty No More, will release in a month (Eep!) on July 17th. I am in the final editing stages and it is going good.

Like my last fantasy book, this book is also action packed (Yes, there is a dragon). I really like the characters and their individual arcs. I will give you a sneak peek from a few pages of the upcoming book (pgs. 3, 13, & 14):

Devon and Aurora’s first meeting is hilarious (she hates his guts). I can’t wait until you can read the entire novel. Sleeping Beauty No More is available as a preorder right now: books2read.com/SBNM

In other book related news, my romantic comedy, Midnight Prince, is now available as an audiobook worldwide. It is also available through Libby. I would love for all my audiobooks to be available in libraries, unfortunately, that is out of my current budget. I hope lots of readers discover my books, and then I will be able to do that 😊

I don’t ask this often, but please remember to leave a review. Reviews and word of mouth help books gain visibility, and are especially great for a small Indie author like me.

Thank you for reading today’s blog post. I hope that you have a wonderful day!

Hi everyone!

Sorry for being missing this week. I was going through some side effects of my second covid vaccine shot (chills, ache, fever 🤕). I am better now, so I thought I give you an update on my newest upcoming Fantasy romance book.

Sleeping Beauty no more will release in a week on July 17th, 2021. The paperback and hardcover book are available now 🥳

I spend some time formatting the covers this week, so that kept me busy too.

What do you think? 😍


My book is a retake on the classic fairytale. I hope that you consider it for your next read.

I will go back to my blogging schedule next week. Sorry again for the unexpected delay (and short blog) for this week.

I love libraries ❤

I  love that they are such a wonderful resource for both readers and for indie authors. 

You can play an important part in supporting your favorite indie authors. Here's how:

Recommend a Book to your Library on Overdrive

Step 1: Download the Overdrive app. Open the app and tap on the upper left-hand corner to access your library.

Step 2: When you reach your library’s Overdrive page, you can use the search bar to type in the title of the book you want. e.g. The Stone Mermaid by Aisha Urooj

Step 3: The search results will show similarly named books. Keep scrolling until you find your indie book/author. 

Step 4: Hit the word “Recommend” to ask your library to buy a copy. You can do this for both ebooks and paperback format (if available).

Step 5: You are done! You just recommended the book (and made an author very happy). When and if the library gets it, you’ll receive an email.

Recommend the books of your favorite indie authors to your libraries and librarians, and help support them in their writing career!

In other book news, the audiobooks for The Nine Muses and Divine Terror are currently under production by two very talented narrators. I will update once the audiobooks are available.

You might be wondering: What is indie April?
It is a wonderful time of year where we highlight indie (or independently/self-published) authors. My author journey started when a few kind (and brave) souls took a chance at my writing, and every April I hope to pay it forward.

Today’s featured Indie book is What are friends for? By Sarah Sutton.

What is the book about? Here’s a sneak peek:

FALLING IN LOVE ISN’T COMPLICATED…UNLESS IT’S WITH YOUR BEST FRIEND. I’ve got a problem.

A big one. It involves a blindfolded kissing game at a party. I was supposed to be kissing my crush, Jeremy, the totally hot baseball player I’ve been crushing on. And the kiss…it’s amazing. Makes me forget all about my overbearing mother, my next-door neighbor’s drama, and the probability of failing my senior year.

But that’s not the big problem. The big problem is that once my blindfold falls off, I realize that heart-stopping, toe-curling, world-changing kiss wasn’t with my crush.It was with Elijah Greybeck, my best friend since the third grade. And even once I realize it’s him, why… why do I want to keep kissing him?

Book one of the Love in Fenton County standalone series, What Are Friends For?, is a swoon-worthy friends to lovers story that will leave you crushing hard.

This is a sweet romance book that will leave you with a warm, happy feeling. Both the main characters are adorable and there are no bad guys/gals, just characters who make bad choices (and then realize it and make amends). I hope you give this cute story a chance.

Be sure to pick up a Indie book for your next read (my books included 😁)
