Cozy Monster F*ckery

UGGGGGHHHHHHHH. I just want to get people their swag! This is so frustrating. I have plans in place to prevent this kind of thing from happening in the future, but let me tell you how frustrated I am RIGHT NOW. I'm so sorry, y'all. #theirstocrave #rowanmerrick #bookishbox #hardcoverbooks #printingerror https://www.instagram.com/p/Cp0kIpdPFrG/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

If you're interested, let me know early. I'm scheduling around my writing, so I'm currently looking at availability for this summer.

It's funny how important reviews are to me, considering I refuse to read them 🤣 But seriously, reviews are one of the best ways to support an indie author. Positive, negative, it doesn't matter. They're all wonderful, and I appreciate every one of you who rates/reviews. And I know the Zon has been playing fuck fuck games with reviewers, which only makes me appreciate y'all more. ♡ #rowanmerrick #theirstocrave #rateandreview #supportindieauthors #grateful #goalachieved #bookstagram #scifiromancebooks #newrelease https://www.instagram.com/p/CpTehFJL_md/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Dadee Revik has me by the throat 🫠 Theirs to Crave: three sexy aliens, one gorgeous fat FMC, so much edging, and an explosive payoff.

The character Estrella is based on my wife, Marlena, a Mexican woman. Given everything that the Latinx community has gone through lately with poor representation by white authors, I thought long and hard before committing to keep her character as is. In the end, the idea of whitewashing her hurt my heart too much, and her culture is inextricably woven into her personhood. I couldn't remove it without removing *her*. I did my best to write Estrella and her brother with empathy and respect, adressing my internal biases and avoiding stereotypes whenever I found them. I remain open to making adjustments if I missed anything harmful. I feel very strongly about not listing Theirs to Crave as a Latinx book, or focusing on Estrella’s race in my marketing, because I don't want to take space from the many amazing Latinx authors out there. To the end of celebrating and supporting the Latinx community, 10% of all Theirs to Crave related sales through my website (book boxes, signed books, art prints, etc) will be donated to United We Dream, a wonderful community-led organization empowering undocumented youth and their families.

ART, and STICKERS, and BOOKS, OH MY! Plus, a whole-assed overhaul of the website. It's shwanky now! More merch coming soon: shirts, leggings, etc UPDATE: My proof copies are in, and I should be approving both the paperback and the hardcover today! Which means they'll be up for sale soon, and the book boxes will finally be shipping out! https://www.instagram.com/p/CpA539oPHtK/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Actual tentative release date: April 14 ❤️ Tereza and her four fae lovers have a lifetime of orgasmic experiences to catch up on, and one hell of a revenge to plan. #boundandbeguiled #consortingwithmonsters #rowanmerrick #faeromance #fantasyromance #eroticnovella #smuttybooks #smutreader #polyambooks #whychooseromance https://www.instagram.com/p/Co-T-G2rjkb/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Soft jiggly heaven 🫠🫠🫠 FFMM polyam alien romance with lots of body worship, plenty of heat, and a long, hot, slow burn of pure frustration. #theirstocrave #aliensofdoluna #rowanmerrick #scifiromancebooks #fatbodypositive #fatrepresentation #plussizeromance #whychooseromance #spicybookrecs #eroticromance #slowburnromance https://www.instagram.com/p/Co9bVmhuGD_/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

House Rules: 1. Fuck/date/marry whoever you want. As long as they pass the Harkness Test, we're cool. Bring 'em around, there's always plenty at my table. 2. The day you start throwing around bigotry (homophobia, racism, transphobia, ableism, fatphobia, slutshaming, kinkshaming, etc) is the day you get blocked. "Fuck around and find out" can have very good or very bad results. Choose wisely. #safespace #bigotsnotwelcome #fuckaroundandfindout #queerauthor #queerbooks https://www.instagram.com/p/Co2Zd7TLmJM/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Sometimes I'm in the mood for a big ol' alien dude to sweep me off my feet solely because he IS a big alien dude...and sometimes I'm not. This book was inspired by one of the "not" times. #theirstocrave #aliensofdoluna #rowanmerrick #scifiromancebooks #queerbooks #sapphicbooks #mmbooks #feministbooks https://www.instagram.com/p/Cou9HyyvJ_4/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
