New Release: Crowing Aaron (Amazon KU)
Current WIP: Claiming Aya/The Blackwoods

Snatching Jackie is officially available in audio!

Snatching Jackie is officially available in audio!

When fate snatches you up, resistance is futile… especially when your mate is a possessive bear shifter.

Jabari has waited centuries for his fated mate, and the moment he catches Jackie’s honey-sweet scent aboard the Wintermoon Cruise, his bear knows exactly who she belongs to.

Jackie only wanted a break from her failing boutique… not a seven-foot bear shifter declaring she’s his mate and whisking her off to Wintermoon territory.

This one has fated mates, possessive bear shifters, supernatural clan life, curvy heroine energy, danger, devotion, and a love that just might be worth being snatched for.

A huge thank you to my incredible narrators, Myles Washington and Ebony Ford, for bringing Jabari and Jackie to life so beautifully.

The way Messy Jay’s book is written might leave you with some questions—and those questions are answered in Soren’s book, featuring a gargoyle who just moved into Shadow Wolf Creek.

This was originally a Patreon project. Soren and Sable pop up in the collab books, so here you go: a quick short about Soren and his Treasure.

Shadow Wolf Creek has gargoyles!

Meet Soren, my gentle giant who’s just moved into town with his brother, Sable. Soren unexpectedly finds his fated mate at Stanley’s Diner — a lovely new waitress named Treasure. But Soren and Sable have deeper connections to this town than just Treasure… and Jalen, my messy dragon, is determined to get to the bottom of it.

Ready for some fun? I’m thinking about dropping my gargoyle release the same day so you can enjoy both.

Are you ready to head back to Shadow Wolf Creek? After that, we’re returning to Wintermoon to wrap up a few things before diving into my Monster Romance series. It’s all slowly coming together.

🎧 Audio Release Day is HERE 🎧

Surviving Josiah: Wintermoon Vampire Tales, Book 4 is officially live on Audible!

She wanted a love story… but she got a monster who treats violence like a love language.

Josiah is the coven’s mistake made in a Louisiana swamp two centuries ago. Unhinged. Obsessive. Immortal. And the moment he sees Layla, his dead heart starts beating for the first time since 1823.

Layla has always been the good girl—the rule follower, the librarian, the one holding everything together while her world falls apart. But when she meets Josiah, fear isn’t what she feels. It’s something darker. Something dangerous. And for the first time, she doesn’t want to run.

If you love obsessive antiheroes, blood and magic, coven politics, and a heroine willing to explore just how dark love can get—this one is for you. For mature listeners.

Listen now:
https://www.audible.com/pd/Surviving-Josiah-Audiobook/B0H627TVF7

A huge thank you to my incredible narrators Myles Washington and Ebony Ford for bringing Josiah and Layla to life with so much intensity, emotion, and power. You both truly embodied these characters, and I’m beyond grateful.

I got the messy dragon, y’all. 🎙️🔥

Rom-com season has officially arrived in Shadow Wolf Creek.

Meet Jalen Carter—journalist, podcaster, and professional secret hoarder. The town calls him Messy Jay because somehow he always knows what’s going on, and if he knows it, it has probably already made its way onto The Shadow Wolf Creek Diaries.

Dragons hoard treasure. Jalen hoards secrets.

This time, the secret he’s chasing involves a powerful corporation with dangerous ties to shifter magic—and digging too deep could get him killed.

When Zuri Spencer accidentally uncovers the same truth, she becomes a target. To keep her safe, Jalen makes a very dragon decision—he keeps her close. 🐉

Now he’s hiding his fated mate, protecting the one woman his dragon refuses to let go, and trying to expose a conspiracy without burning the entire town down.

This is Messy Jay reminding you—where there’s smoke, I’m probably the fire. 🔥

Alright, let’s get back to work! Two more books be

Alright, let’s get back to work! Two more books before I take a break from Wintermoon—and I’m ready. ✍🏾

I’m on a break from my reader group until both books are finished. I’m no longer available for on-the-spot questions, but I will be hosting a one-hour live Zoom meeting once a month via Patreon. Make a list of your questions and I’ll answer as many as I can during that time. I need a break from peopling to focus on writing. I can feel my autistic sensory overload building, so let me go sit down somewhere.

Claiming Aya—I’m about 80% finished with this one. I’m introducing the Merfolk. Wintermoon is getting mermaids!🧜🏾‍♀️ Ezra and Aya have a complicated love story that will be interesting and frustrating to read. Josiah also appears in this book. He’s back working as a deputy for Wintermoon and just so happens to be writing his own healthy habits book. His beautiful Layla is determined to make sure his debut becomes a bestseller—even if that means terrorizing the residents to ensure his release day goes smoothly.

The Blackwoods—this one has been tough to write. I’m not used to juggling more than two POVs, and this one has four: mostly Angie, Carla, and Josiah. Anora only has a few chapters. But I’m ending Wintermoon with a bang. A big one. You’ll see major character growth in Josiah as he rises to become King of Wintermoon. I’m about 30% in after doing a full rewrite when the original direction didn’t get the reaction I hoped for. So we’re starting over.

I’m writing both books live on Patreon. You can watch everything unfold as I develop the stories, and both books will be dropping soon. I’m officially finished with graduate school, which means I have a lot more free time to write. ✨📚

Chat with you all soon. Just an update. Happy reading, and I hope you’re enjoying your summer.

The throne of Wintermoon was always their destiny…

The throne of Wintermoon was always their destiny… but building a family might cost them everything 👑

Crowning Anora by Tessa Stone is now live on Audible.

After centuries of rest, Amir awakens to a supernatural sanctuary built by his people. The crown is his to claim, yet it’s Anora who commands his heart. She was born from ancient magic, shaped for greatness, and mated to the most powerful being in existence — but being queen isn’t the same as being fulfilled.

As her visions intensify and old fears shadow the throne, they’re forced to choose what truly matters: ruling a kingdom or protecting the love they fought to find. Power means nothing if you lose the one who sees you completely 🔥

This is passion, prophecy, and partnership tested by destiny.

For mature listeners.

Listen here 🎧

Thank you to Myles Washington and Ebony Ford for bringing Amir and Anora to life with such strength, vulnerability, and fire. Your performances made this world unforgettable.

Every crown has a price. His father named it. Aar

Every crown has a price. His father named it.

Aaron Blackwood was never meant to rule the Witching Glen. He chose love. He chose Mara. He chose a life far from the throne sealed by blood and betrayal.

Until he tears a hole in time… and watches Mara die.

Now the only magic that can save her lies inside the very realm he swore he’d never enter. And the father who abandoned him is waiting on the other side — patient, powerful, and pulling the strings.

To save his mate and their unborn son, Aaron must claim a crown he never wanted.
But every gift from his father is a hook.
And the throne will cost him the man he is.

If you love:
– fated mates
– dangerous magic
– powerful Black love
– time-bending twists
– warlocks and lion shifters
– deadly bargains

Crowning Aaron is your next obsession.

One realm. One crown. One impossible choice.

Okay… The Blackwoods was supposed to release today

Okay… The Blackwoods was supposed to release today, but I had to cancel the preorder. 💔

I’ve been dealing with some life issues since January, and even though my personal world feels like it’s crumbling, I’m still trying to show up—for grad school, for work, and for mom life. You know what they say? Your world is falling apart—but Dairy Queen still closes at 7. 🍦 Sigh.

I’m really sorry to disappoint readers. The Blackwoods is on hold for a month or two while I get caught up on deadlines. I’m behind on a few things, and Crowning Aaron needs to release before The Blackwoods to avoid confusion in the series.

But I promise—you will see Jo again very soon. 🖤 I’m working hard to finish their story, and it means everything to me.

Thank you so much for the love, patience, and support. Truly. 🫶🏾

For now, here’s a visual of Anora’s unraveling into dark magic. It’s a major part of the plot. Yes… Queen Anora becomes the Evil Queen. 👑✨
