I'm not here very often, but given the Tiktok ban, I suspect that will be changing. I'm a longtime tumblr girly, it's where I shared my fanfic and writing for years, so this should have been where I hung out the whole time - I just tend to forget I have an author profile while I'm on my personal longtime account.

The Vampire in the Bookstore has released and is now live!

There is nothing more interesting to a book-loving vampire than an old bookstore... and a human with the rich aroma of ink and parchment embedded in her skin... For more centuries than he cared to count, Declan had found more comfort among his books and his personal library than he ever did around others, whether they be human or supernatural. With eternity before him, he treasures knowledge, the pursuit of it, and the preservation. Nothing, and no one, could ever part him from such endeavors. Until, among the stacks of a familiar bookstore, he encounters a human with a love of books that rivals his own, and an interest in perusing his personal collection... But for Rosamund, meeting Declan is so much more than exploring his home library, as she knows his secret. His deepest one. The one she knows he treasures above all others. She knows that he... is her favorite author. And in just one very loosely planned encounter... she needs him to reveal everything... For the pursuit of knowledge, of course. And perhaps something else. This monster romance features a plus-size heroine who knows what she wants and how to get it and her vampire love interest, who shares her love of old books and extensive libraries. This novella encompasses a long evening shared, ending with a HEA.

GRANTED, this is a few days late, but Amazon decided to play silly games, so I won a silly prize! That's right! Number 1 New Release in the Low Cholesterol Cooking Book Category...

Does this make me a professional Cookbook Author? Or does Declan just spend too much of the book thinking about eating Rosamund?

Do you like reading about Vampires Authors meeting a Bibliophile who is secretly in love with their books? Then congrats - this one is for you!

Also, it's erotic romance. So you know... porny!

No teasers for tumblr - I'll just go ahead and reveal, since the pre-order is already live!

There is nothing more interesting to a book-loving vampire than an old bookstore... and a human with the rich aroma of ink and parchment embedded in her skin...

For more centuries than he cared to count, Declan had found more comfort among his books and his personal library than he ever did around others, whether they be human or supernatural. With eternity before him, he treasures knowledge, the pursuit of it, and the preservation. Nothing, and no one, could ever part him from such endeavors.

Until, among the stacks of a familiar bookstore, he encounters a human with a love of books that rivals his own, and an interest in perusing his personal collection...

But for Rosamund, meeting Declan is so much more than exploring his home library, as she knows his secret. His deepest one. The one she knows he treasures above all others. She knows that he... is her favorite author.

And in just one very loosely planned encounter... she needs him to reveal everything... For the pursuit of knowledge, of course. And perhaps something else.

“I love you enough for the both of us, and I’m gonna keep comin’ back, until eventually, you figure out how to break that spell, and then we’re gonna be together. It’s as simple as that."

“You’re the love of my life, Little Witch. Me and you, we’re meant to be together. Sure, things aren’t workin’ out the way we would hope, but that don’t matter none. The path of other people ain’t for us, because ain’t nobody like us.”

This book is my version of Slow Burn... which is not very slow at all!
