aka: the one where I fall in love with a blue himbo and flirt with emotional ruin
Hey sugarplums,
We’re back for another round of soft chaos and spicy monsters… and let me tell you, the vibes this week are feral florist meets pastel heartbreak. Between drafting my coziest monster romance yet, falling head over heels for a blue skinned god in a toga, and organizing my entire life around Laufey’s new music drops, it felt like the perfect moment for a little catch up.
So let’s get into it…
🌸 What I’m Writing
If you’ve ever wished the Fortune Records universe had just a bit more knotting, cozy vibes, and emotionally repressed monsters… you’re going to love what I’m working on next.
This new series takes us back to where it all began - right near Rosie’s café. But this time, she’s not the only omega on the block. Each book will follow a new heroine and her fated mate (or mates), from broody gargoyles to stormy elementals to one very silent minotaur butcher. It’s still sweet. Still spicy. Still soft enough to want to hug, but with claws under the surface.
And yes, there’s nesting.
🕯️ A Little Bit Darker…
While I’ve been happily elbow deep in cinnamon roll monsters and scent soaked mating bonds… I’ve also been dipping my toes into something darker.
Think candlelit libraries. Wicked rituals. An academy where nothing is quite as it seems.
My Dark Academy Omegaverse project is slowly coming to life under Sofia Graves, and let’s just say: if you’ve ever wanted your paranormal romance with a dash of danger and love interests that bite… you’re going to want to keep your eyes peeled.
📚 What I’m Reading
My entire brain has been taken hostage by Lore Olympus. Yes, I’m late. No, I don’t care.
I thought I was just “checking it out.” Cut to me seven volumes deep, openly weeping over Persephone’s glow up and googling “how tall is Hades actually.”
If you’ve ever loved an emotionally constipated myth man with a secret soft side, welcome to the club. We have cookies and breakdowns.
🎧 Current Writing Playlist
Laufey said, “let’s destroy the emotionally fragile girls this summer,” and I said, “thank you.”
Her latest releases are everything I need to write sweet monster romance with a touch of longing. Here’s what’s been looping while I draft:
- Tough Luck
- Silver Lining
- Lover Girl
It’s giving moonlit walks, shared secrets, and the slow realization that someone would absolutely die for you.
💬 Quick Catch Up
Sofia Graves has officially stepped into the moonlight. My pen name for the darker, edgier, still super steamy stories that don’t quite fit in the cozy café. You’ll see more from her very soon. And yes, there will be knots.
Also, in totally unrelated life updates: I got absolutely drenched on my walk home from the office today - like soggy socks, mascara running, full romcom breakdown levels of drenched. If a monster had offered me shelter (or snacks), I might’ve imprinted on them right there.
Thanks for hanging out with me, darling. I’ll be back soon with more tea, more spice, and more monsters who are desperate to be loved.
🧁 Stay soft, stay spicy,
Sofia
