About the author
Alexandra Almond
2 books23 followersAlexandra writes mostly cosy fantasy, with a bit of contemporary romance on the side. Her debut novel THOROUGHLY DISENCHANTED won the Aurealis Award for Best Fantasy Novel 2024.
She lives and works on Bunurong land in Melbourne (Naarm) with her tennis-ball obsessed Labrador, Captain. Before turning her hand to writing, previous roles included stablehand, clown, HR assistant, flower buyer, procurement manager, cleaner and human-centred designer, which is her current day job. She might have included footballer on that list if the AFLW had arrived three decades earlier; and if she had any ability. She likes trains, books, dogs and cups of tea. Her favourite colour is green.

This is such a great little anthology. All the stories are short and snappy and very sweet.
I genuinely enjoyed all the stories in here. There’s such a range of sexualities, gender identities and disabilities presented in these pages and each little bit of representation made me happy.
Some of my standout faves were Myriad Lights by Georgia Moore, Concussion Sunset by Bea Sage and It’s a Date by Devon May.
Definitely recommend for an easy read and to get a taste of some of the wonderful talent Australian romance authors have to offer.
