Can you believe it’s been 3 MONTHS since The Kingdom’s Reckoning released??? Is it still too early to share spoiler-y art, if so…. Maybe don’t scroll (or do🤭( Seriously though, thank you all SO MUCH for the love for this book and this series. It’s because of you I get to do what I do AND commission gorgeous artwork. @pangolin2b brought Myra and Laurince to life so beautifully. When this hit my inbox, my jaw dropped. Everything is pure perfection, and I’m still not over it (or these two) 📚 Characters from Of Fire & Lies, a completed romantic fantasy series

"𝕴 𝖉𝖔𝖓'𝖙 𝖒𝖆𝖐𝖊 𝖉𝖊𝖆𝖑𝖘 𝖜𝖎𝖙𝖍 𝖙𝖍𝖊 𝖉𝖊𝖛𝖎𝖑." "𝕴𝖘 𝖙𝖍𝖆𝖙 𝖜𝖍𝖆𝖙 𝕴 𝖆𝖒?" Oh look i accidentally commissioned more character art woops 😈 Thank you to the amazing @pangolin2b for this art of one of Sath and Willow's first meetings (affectionately known as "the chest poking incident") can we please talk about the scary skull ceiling i am obsessed Reminder that A Match Made in Hell is currently 99p in the UK kindle store (And I think 1.99 in australia?!

“Bring refreshments next time.” I leaned forward, resting my elbows on my knees. “If you insist on imposing on my favorite reading spot.” She rolled her eyes but didn’t argue as she turned toward the forest’s edge. I flexed my fingers, clenching and unclenching them a few times to rid the peculiar sensation from where her skin had touched mine. As she faded from view, I pondered how she seemed to be lit from within. ❄️☀️ HAPPY MONDAY FRIENDS!!! I think it’s about time we get back on the art posting train don’t you?? This STUNNING piece by @pangolin2b perfectly captures all of those scenes at the beginning of the book with the boy from the woods 🥹 the stolen, furtive glances (when the other isn’t looking). The silent solace. No names. No past. Just shared space. I’ve been thinking back a lot to writing Ballad as I work on Harmony (and listen to the incredible audiobook), experiencing these scenes again as a reader. These moments were fleshed out even more as the book went through edits, and I realized just how important these seemingly meaningless meetings were to the overall story (and their own). It’s the foundation of it all, looking back, more than will even be realized until the series concludes. This rendition of that time is nothing short of magical 🥹🖤 (Also can we all take a moment for his hands. Let’s just sit with that. Breathe it in. Make sure @shaleys.shelf is still breathing 🤭) We have so many exciting things ahead. And while I continue writing Harmony (and miss these times of quiet and safety lol), I continue to fall more in love with this story every day. To a boy from the woods 🖤 XO, KB Want to know more? About the book: Ballad of Whispers is the first installment in an adult epic romantic fantasy series that follows an apothecary apprentice desperate to find a cure for a plague ravaging her realm.

✨BEAST & THORN✨ Reshina and Arthur. I can’t tell you how many times I gasped at the progress of this art by @pangolin2b Every piece they’ve done is a treasure to behold, but even after the first sketch, I cannot believe these are my characters and this is a scene from something I wrote. When I set out to make the @pangolin2b art for this fairytale be reminiscent of a bodice ripper cover, I did not imagine such a gorgeous piece, and as I hope you see, there’s no way I could keep this to myself for long. BEAST & THORN is the third interconnected standalone fairytale retelling in my A Realm of Revelry Series. When a Goddess bleeds on the land of the Beast, she is dragged into the Underrealm where the Beast’s human form roams. Dark magic and new fae are uncovered as the Goddess attempts to escape the clutches of the curse she herself delivered to the land decades ago. Full blurb and cover reveal sign up to come in January!
