If you love monster romances, open this letter! &#x1f499;

Last year, I started working on a project. Now, it’s taking a ~monstrous~ life of its own over on Kickstarter.

First, let’s back up. What is this secret project?

Months ago, the ladies at Bonkers Romance podcast put together a series called PECULIAR TASTES. We got on a zoom and threw out ideas of what this world would look like. Monsters? Mermen? Fae? And of course, streamy, steamy romance. I will be writing as Zoey Castile for this one.

You’ve been warned! The rest is NSFW-ish. If romance with magical beings is something you’re into, keep scrolling! I’ll go into the project and share some of the fun art we’ve got in store for this kickstarter.

More updates on other projects on the next one.

Welcome to the Shadow Market

It's that time of year, friends. The moon is full and Samhain approaches. Your invitation to the Shadow Market is here. Three days of magic, drama, seduction, and maybe just a dash of human sacrifice! Come through the portal and meet witches, demons, gorgons, mermaids, the fae, and even the odd human who's gotten turned around and ended up somewhere they shouldn't.

Introducing the Peculiar Tastes series, brought to you in partnership with the Bonkers Romance Podcast, which will have six brand new books for your reading pleasure!

The Death God's Sacrifice by Jenny Nordbak, where a Gorgon assassin sets out to slay a death god and instead becomes his sacrifice...

The Demon's Bargain by Katee Robert, where a witch summons a demon and gets a little more than she bargained for...

The Hellmouth Guardian's Lover by Adriana Herrera, where a hellmouth guardian is visited by the serpent demon who broke her heart...

The Vixen's Deceit by Nikki Sloane, where a skeptical reporter visits an immersive haunted house and falls for a sexy cast member. But is her seduction real...or part of the act?

The Captive Merman's Promise by Zoey Castile, where a captive merman meets a bruja who will change his life...

The Fae Queen's Captive by Sierra Simone, where a grad student sets out to find a missing castle and is kidnapped for the pleasure of a fae queen instead...

Join us in the Shadow Market...if you dare.

The Captive Merman’s Promise

Yes, I’m back to writing mermen and brujas! Only this time every time I’ve talked about mermaid anatomy, I won’t hold back.

This story follows Amada Palacios, a bruja who is cursed to never be able to hold on to her love. On the other side of the Shadow Market is Rónán, the last merman of a deceased kingdom under the oceans, now trapped in a magical sideshow. Together, they spend some amazing nights together, while from the shadows lurks a force hell bent on keeping them apart.

It’s a bite sized romance full of mermaid anatomy and answers the questions, “How do they bang?”

They do bang.

Here is my beautiful couple…
