The Blooming, by @ashleymichelelx , is available for early access sale :-D. Yes, this is an eco-horror, but if you look at what we've done to the planet... maybe we've got it coming...
Blurb:
A routine run. A wrong turn. A fever blooming under her skin.
Xime didn’t mean to stray from the path.
But something ancient waits beneath the moss of Tom Brown Park—something with roots and hunger and heat.
Her skin itches. Her muscles throb.
Something is blooming inside her.
And it doesn’t want to kill her.
It needs her alive.

This story is like The Hunger Games + Game of Thrones. Very plot driven, but the romance is not neglected ;-)
And it reminds us, that even in the bleakest of times, fighting the villain is always the right thing.

I had an amazing time at @monsteroticabookcon . Not a surprise. I had an amazing time last year. I had the pleasure of moderating two panels this year, and it truly brought me so much joy!
I loved hearing from all of the readers who have enjoyed my performances, and seeing all of the amazing authors in person.
We all get so busy, so these brief opportunities to meet in person are sometimes the only chances I get to convey in a meaningful way what their trust and our relationship (even "just" business) means to me.
Can't wait to see you all again next year. I hope I have more monster romance for you!

I don't blame the events! So if you were with me at one, please don't blame them either. There are hundreds or thousands of people at a single event.
To label things plainly, touching my hijab without my permission is a microagression. Yes, even when you're expressing appreciation. Because your appreciation doesn't supercede my personal space.
Regarding my PTSD, yes, some scares are unavoidable for me. I recognize that. It is still strange to me how confidently others approach people from behind, and I am self aware enough to recognize that my perception is colored by my experience. I'm really just hoping this increases awareness.
Women and femme presenting people in the military are often overlooked or not considered. Me not looking like a solider to you doesn't erase the trauma the Army issued me with my DD 214. IFYKYK.

A voice to guide you through the damned. 🎙️
At NMFTB, we believe some stories are too raw for anything less than a human soul. That’s why we are—and will always be—strictly a human-narrated company.
For The Defiant and The Damned, the incomparable Ruthie Bowles returns for a solo narration that is nothing short of visceral. Ruthie doesn't just read the words; she inhabits the grit, the trauma, and the triumph of EC Garrett’s world.
The Vibe: It’s the smell of old parchment and spilled blood. It’s the weight of a crown you never wanted. It’s the silence before a heist and the roar of a dragon in the distance. It’s somber, it’s intense, and it’s hauntingly beautiful.
Reminder:
🤺Human Narrator: Ruthie Bowles (Solo)
🎧Format: Special Edition Audio (Exclusive Content Included)
✔ALC Status: Still accepting applications for a few more days!
Don't listen to a machine. Listen to a heartbeat. Apply for the ALC team or catch up on the series with our 40% off early access sale on Books 1 and 1.5.
