✨ New Series Alert! ✨

Hey friends! I’ve been hiding in my writing cave (snacks may have been involved), and I finally get to pop out and tell you something fun:
I have a brand-new series out!

🦹‍♀️ The Girl’s Guide to Supervillainy! 🦹‍♀️
Think cozy chaos, questionable choices, found-family vibes… and even a little romance.
Nemesis: A Girl's Guide to Supervillainy
It’s sweet, quirky, and just the right amount of “uh-oh, what did she do now?”

If you like your heroines a bit messy, your supervillains a bit lovable, and your danger served with a wink, come hang out with me in this new world. I promise you laughs, heart, and a good dose of mayhem.

Come check it out, add it to your TBR, or just drop by and say hi—I love seeing you all here. 💛📚
