My Bookish Year (2024)

My biggest and most exciting news of last year is, of course, that I signed with an agent, Rebecca Lawrence, of the Booker Albert Literary Agency. Still chuffed. We're shopping The Redemption of Prince Charming (a Cinderella retelling) so cross your fingers for me!

| Short story. I read this when it came out, before Peace Talks, but it properly fits inside the timeline for Twelve Months so I decided to reread it. Very charming and funny and full of heart. | |

| The twelve-month period made for a slightly slower plot, but it made up for it by being more character oriented and shows both how Harry and Chicago are recovering from the battle. | |

| I do love me a magical upgrade... Lia is learning new skills, or rather old lost skills. Lots of action and plenty of heart as Clan Fireborn gets off to a rocky start. | |

| Second book in duology with escalating tension as the new Master Conjurer proves himself a villain. I liked how Faelin and Aric combined their powers to be better together. | |

"I have to." A regretful sigh. "And it's best if you don't remember any mermen." He tucked a strand of wet hair behind her ear. His voice stroked her skin like velvet. "Forget me."
And she did.”
