This book has taken over my life in the best possible ways. Which very much explains why I’ve been like a ghost here.

If you’ve not been keeping up with my Instagram, which I tend to post to more, I have a projected release date for my first book, Blood Mist & Bone Dust, for February 2025.

From writing the story to designing the cover, decals, and so on, this is something I am proud of on multiple levels.

The premise for the story came from a dream I had when I was fourteen (2008) and had just discovered the band My Chemical Romance. The dream consisted of a story about a brother and sister who were in trouble and it had something to do with the grandfather and that was all I knew. Fast forward fourteen years later, the same emo-crazed nerd sits at her disk as that story unfolds into something beyond her imagination.

I didn’t think I could create anything like this. But here we are. I hope you enjoy it.

Set in Chicago, in the middle of a blood war, you will find yourself face to face with bloodsucking, sarcastic gangsters who may or may not drain you completely for a pretty penny.

I’ve enjoyed everything about writing this story and getting to know the characters, and as I draw near the end of the first installment (yes, first installment), I realize I’ve only scraped the surface of this story.

A forbidden and secret vampire-human romance, steamy and sensual scenes, gunfights in the middle of restaurants, horror-level blood and gore, and more! I look forward to sharing this world with you.

PSA: Blood Mist & Bone Dust is a dark romance and is suited for mature audiences as it explores the darker themes of domestic violence, forced marriage, sexual assault, human trafficking, and more. Please review the content trigger list before reading. As much as I appreciate your readership, I value mental health above all. Please practice self-care when reading.
