There’s a certain kind of story that stays with you long after you finish it.

The kind with characters who are a little broken, a little hopeful, and trying to survive worlds that don’t make things easy for them. Stories filled with magic, impossible choices, quiet grief, stubborn love, and the moments that change people forever.

That’s exactly why I’m excited to be part of this book bundle.

Inside, you’ll find stories from multiple authors featuring unforgettable heroines, emotional journeys, fantasy worlds, romance, danger, resilience, and all the things that keep us turning pages way too late at night.

My books The Winter Princess and Dandelions are included in the collection, alongside so many other amazing reads. If you love stories with atmosphere, emotion, and characters that feel real even in impossible situations, there’s a very good chance you’ll discover a new favourite here.

One of my favourite things about bundles like this is the chance to find authors you might never have stumbled across otherwise. Some books will break your heart a little. Some will heal it. Some will make you want to stay in their worlds forever.

That’s the magic of reading, honestly.

So whether you’re looking for your next fantasy obsession, an emotional read that lingers, or simply a stack of new books to escape into, this collection has something waiting for you.

There’s something terrifying about release day.

For years, this story lived quietly with me — in messy drafts, late-night notes, and the stubborn voice of a girl who refused to be softened.

Today, she belongs to you.

And there’s a strange moment when a book stops being something you’re shaping and becomes something that exists without you.

Drafts, edits, proofs — all the versions where it still feels like it belongs to you.

And then suddenly, it doesn’t.

When I first imagined Scarlett, I didn’t start with magic.

I started with a question:

What if your mother was fey and your father was a wolf shifter?

What would that make you?

Not fully fey.
Not fully wolf.
Not fully welcome in either world.

And then there was the image I couldn’t shake — a dandelion pushing up through pavement.

Because that’s the heart of this story.

Something that should not have survived… growing anyway.

No softness. No permission. Just life forcing its way through what was meant to hold it down.

Scarlett was never meant to be a pawn.

She was shaped instead by grief, trauma, and a childhood that ended too early.

Magic didn’t save her.

It complicated everything.

It sharpened what was already there — anger, doubt, and a need to survive on her own terms.

Writing her became about more than a girl navigating two worlds.

It became about choice. About agency. About what it means to exist in a life that tries to define you before you even understand yourself.

And survival, for Scarlett, comes down to one moment.

The night she pulled the trigger on the man who raised her.

The world called it murder.

She called it survival.

After that, there is no version of her story that goes quietly.

Juvenile detention should have been the end of it.
A place where everything narrowed down until there was nothing left.

But what came after doesn’t care what she has already endured.

Not when wolves and fae were never meant to mix.

Not when Ash Grayson is still there — the boy who was meant to keep her safe.

Now he watches her like something slipping out of reach, carrying guilt he can’t put down.

But Scarlett doesn’t belong to anyone anymore.

Not the courts.
Not the pack.
Not him.

Because what she’s learned is not how to survive.

It’s how to stay standing when survival is no longer enough.

DANDELIONS is about resilience.

About what grows in places it was never meant to survive.
About what pushes through anyway — through cracks, through pressure, through everything built to keep it down.

I called it Dandelions because that’s what this story is.

Something that refuses to stay gone.

Something that always comes back.

Thank you for being here on release day.

Thank you for stepping back into the Eldritch Universe with me, where wild things are blooming.

AVAILABLE NOW!

St. Patrick’s Day rolls around every year and suddenly everything turns green.

Shamrocks. Hats. Rivers. Beer.

And if you’ve spent any time reading Irish mythology—or writing it like I have—you start noticing something interesting.

The stories people know about Ireland?

They aren’t always the real ones.

Take the famous legend: St. Patrick driving the snakes out of Ireland.

Great story.

Except Ireland never actually had snakes.

None.

Which means the story probably wasn’t about snakes at all.

Most historians believe the “snakes” were symbolic. A way of talking about the older pagan beliefs of Ireland fading as Christianity spread across the country.

Now whether that’s completely true or not…

That’s a debate for historians.

But here’s the interesting part.

Ireland never actually lost its mythology.

It just learned to live beside Christianity.

Ireland Did Something Different

Look at the history and you’ll see it.

Holy wells that used to belong to old gods suddenly connected to saints.

Ancient sacred sites with churches built right on top of them.

Stories about the Sídhe and the fae that people still whisper about… even while going to Mass on Sunday.

Ireland didn’t erase its mythology.

It layered it.

And honestly?

That’s part of what hooked me.

Why Irish Mythology Shows Up in My Writing

If you’ve read the Eldritch series, you’ve probably noticed something.

Irish mythology is everywhere in it.

That wasn’t originally the plan.

But once I started digging into Celtic folklore, I got stuck there.

The fae.

The courts.

The strange overlap between the human world and the Otherworld.

It’s perfect for paranormal romance.

Because the whole genre runs on one simple question.

What if?

What if the stories weren’t just stories?

What if the things whispered in old folklore never actually disappeared?

And what happens when someone human ends up caught in the middle of it?

Zooey’s Problem

Zooey—the main character in the Eldritch series—grew up Irish Catholic.

Her dad made sure of that.

Faith. Structure. Rules.

But Irish culture has always had this strange duality.

Religion on one side.

Folklore on the other.

And sometimes the two overlap in ways that get… messy.

You can grow up believing in saints.

And still know not to mess with certain hills.

Zooey lives right in that space.

Between what she was raised to believe and the reality of a world that’s a lot older—and a lot stranger—than she ever imagined.

And once that door opens?

There’s no closing it again.

The Thing About Irish Stories

Irish mythology has always leaned a little darker.

The fae aren’t cute.

They’re dangerous.

Deals have consequences.

And love stories?

Well…

They tend to get complicated.

Which makes them perfect for paranormal romance.

Because the best stories happen when the human world and the supernatural world collide.

Preferably in the worst possible way.

If you want to see what that collision looks like in the Eldritch world, you can start here:

Just don’t blame me if you start looking at Irish folklore a little differently afterwards.

If your TBR pile isn’t tall enough already, I’m about to make it worse (you’re welcome 😄).

I don’t know about you, but I’ve been in a full-on escape into another world mood lately. The real world? Overrated.

Give me magic, danger, romance, and a little supernatural chaos any day.

So of course I went hunting for new reads… and I have these to share with you.

If you love paranormal romance, fantasy worlds, magical adventures, or bingeable box sets, keep reading.

This first one is basically a treasure trove if you’re into witches, shifters, vampires, fae, sci-fi romance — all the good stuff.
