Debut Author of African American Paranormal Romance

Yeah yeah, I’m supposed to be on a break, but Ni

Yeah yeah, I’m supposed to be on a break, but Nia and Hazel’s book really wore me down emotionally, and I need to write something that will put me in better spirits. So, why not write Carla’s love story? 😄

I’m having a lot of fun doing it (😂), so I made a quick video in After Effects. Still learning how to do it from school—this video is actually a homework assignment haha.

Carla’s giving Amari such a hard time, and he’s not used to not getting whatever he wants, especially when it comes to women. I’m finally exploring the Vampire covens on my map in Wintermoon, and I’m having a good time. Definitely getting a good dopamine boost because I’ve been depressed after Nia and Hazel’s book—it put me in a writing slump.

I don’t know when this will release, but I’m taking my time and going with the flow.

Happy reading! ❤️

Hey hey! 🖤 Meet Amari, Carla’s mate. He’s

Hey hey! 🖤

Meet Amari, Carla’s mate. He’s Moorish, dating back to 735 CE 🌍. Turned by Damon during a war, Amari eventually built a coven of his own 🏰. He’s a tech nerd, an inventor 💻, and incredibly wealthy 💰. When Damon asks for his help designing a security system, Amari crosses paths with Carla—and everything changes.

Amari is nothing like the sweet, charming shifter men. He’s a womanizer and, frankly, an a-hole 🙄. But Carla awakens his centuries-dead heart ❤️‍🔥, and he won’t stop until she’s his mate forever.

Carla is tough and full of spunk, but Amari’s persistence (and her children’s strange submission to him 🕷️) break down her barriers. Expect banter, resistance, and an epic love story as Amari proves they’re meant to be.

I’m writing their story now, and I can’t wait to share it! 🫶🏾

It’s time to get to work on Freeing Nala, the final book in the Fated Mates series!

This final book takes us on a new journey—a time jump fifteen years into the future of Wintermoon. Nala, Torin, Aaron, and a few other young supernaturals are now adults, working at Wintermoon Academy.

Nala remains under the guardianship of Meekah, who’s been helping her master control over her lion. For lion shifters, failing to tame their lion can be dangerous—even deadly. Without a pride or elders to guide them, many orphaned lions don’t stand a chance. But Meekah did the unthinkable: he adopted them, becoming the father figure they needed.

Nala became his beloved adopted daughter, and he’s not ready to let her go. He doesn’t think Torin, the ever-troubled wolf shifter, is good enough for her. But Torin’s wolf can’t help but go into protective overdrive whenever Nala is near. Can you blame him? 😂

I’m so excited to dive into this story and bring it to you all! Freeing Nala releases at the end of June, but I’ll keep you updated regularly. Who knows, I might even drop a surprise Wintermoon Shorts release in the next week or two. 👀

✨ Meet Dominic, the dragon shifter of the Ash Clan and Hazel’s fated mate. ✨

Dominic is the kind of guy who doesn’t ask for much—he’s focused on his medical studies, his bond with Tyrion, and caring for the shifter babies of Wintermoon. But everything changes when Hazel enters his life.

The moment he looks into her eyes and catches that sweet honeysuckle scent (the one he’s been searching for centuries), he knows she’s the one. Her past doesn’t matter—his only mission now is healing Hazel, no matter what it takes. Even if it means following her into death. 🌹🔥

Dominic’s love for Hazel is fierce, unwavering, and unforgettable. Their story is one that will live in my heart forever. ❤️

If you’re into fated mates, dragon shifters, and a love story that will make you swoon and cry all at once, you *need* to read *Healing Hazel* by Tessa Stone! 🐉✨

Healing means forgiving—not for those who hurt you, but for yourself. Aya, Hazel’s mother, is trapped in limbo. The only way out is to confront the mistakes she’s made—not just with the man-made creation, Amir 2.0, that she helped bring into existence, but also with her daughter, Hazel. Can Hazel find the strength to heal and forgive her mother before it’s too late?

🌙 Wintermoon is expanding! Check out the official maps—time to add more shifter communities and fill this world to the brim!

Hazel and Damon might be traveling the globe for some recruiting soon, and I’m itching to write about the Wintermoon Cruise. There’s a story in my head about a woman who takes the cruise, only to discover she’s fated to a shifter working on board. Let’s just say it turns into a trip she’ll never forget (don’t worry, happy ending included).

What kind of shifters are you hoping to see in the Wintermoon world? You never know, you might just get them!

✨ Forgiving Levi is LIVE on Amazon! (Free to read on Kindle Unlimited)

Hi everyone! I’m so excited to finally share Forgiving Levi with you. This book has been such an emotional journey for me, and I want to take a moment to thank all my incredible Patrons. You’ve been my rock throughout this process, and your love and support made every tear I shed while writing this book worth it. Thank you from the bottom of my heart! ❤️

📖 Forgiving Levi is part one of a two-book duet and a prequel to Taming Kane. It’s a slow-burn, emotional rollercoaster with heartbreak, raw emotions, and a “happy for now.” Nia and Levi’s story is intense, and I can’t wait for you to meet them!

Important Notes:
- 🐺 Slow-burn romance (with a feisty heroine who doesn’t make things easy for Levi 😉).
- 🌑 Dark themes—please take care while reading.
- 📚 Prequel to Taming Kane in the Fated Mates Series.

🌙 Meet Kade & Leah 🌙

Kade is a fierce vampire-witch hybrid and the no-nonsense sheriff of Wintermoon. Once a Viking witch, she fought in the Great War—until discovering her commander was using dark magic. Betrayed and left for dead, she was saved by King Amir, who turned her into a vampire… breaking one of Mother Fate’s sacred laws.

Leah is a trueborn witch of Black and Choctaw heritage, whose bloodline was cursed during the Tulsa Massacre of 1921. Her great-grandmother foresaw one of her descendants—Leah—being mated to a white vampire. Heartbroken and enraged by the brutality she experienced, she cursed their entire bloodline.

Their story is one of love, resilience, and breaking generational curses.

The full book drops end of April, but early chapters release April 5th exclusively for my amazing Patreon supporters!

Once complete, their book will be published on Amazon & Kindle Unlimited under my new pen name: Journi.

Journi is where I’ll be sharing all of my Sapphic Shifter and Vampire stories, with a strong focus on Black sapphic love. There will be a few interracial couples here and there, but Black love will always be the heart of this pen name.

Kade and Leah are currently my only interracial sapphic couple, and their story is just the beginning.

Want to see them? You can check out the full character art—including NSFW art of Kade & Leah—free on my Patreon!

P.S. Yes… the scene where Kade tries to eat her sister-in-law Ellie is 100% in the book. 😅

Thank you to my wonderful artist _art_valery_ for bringing my characters to life.

I haven’t done one of these in a while, so here’s a new “day in the life” post because CONTENT CONTENT CONTENT 😂. It’s been a rough month, but I’m keeping my head up and pushing through.

This weekend is super busy! Me, Melody, and Elle are hosting a Book Bingo in our reader group (so fun!) and highlighting a Black Paranormal Romance author every day for the next 25 days as part of the challenge.

On top of that, I’ve got SO much work to catch up on. I really, really need to get my chapters uploaded to Patreon, but y’all… I’m struggling so bad to get in the right mindset to finish Nia and Levi’s story. These characters are not talking to me rn (why are they like this?! 😭). Maybe I just need to reset my brain a little.

Anyway, Happy Reading! I hope y’all loved Amir and Anora’s happy ending as much as I did.
