HEXED is with my editor for its first round of edits!

Give me a cookie for hitting my deadline, please *SCREAMS*

There's three rounds of edits, beta reads, sensitivity reads, etc. so it's not done til it's DONE but I am so excited for you to get this book!

This couple is everything. And when I tell you Hexed is going to be THICC? It's at 125K before developmental edits, so who knows where we'll wind up. OK BYE!

TITLE REVEAL DAY!!!

Anyone want an exclusive sneak peek excerpt from Cosmo?? *side eyes*

I'm at 80,000 words! HUZZAH! This book is definitely a slow burn so get ready for it, and as far as how it's falling on the "dark" scale (which is very much subjective and dependent on how a person engages individually) it's feeling similar to Hooked.

Also, the way their love story is unfolding? It's just so pure and makes me giddy, idk how to explain it lmao

P.S. - A birdie told me to keep an eye out this week

I'm over 50K words and my first draft is always a goal for 100,000, so whoop!

This book is feeling like a slow burn so far, so prepare yourselves. They haven't done the bang bang yet, but the tension is TENSION-ing which is why I love writing slow burns so much. That and I love to torture you.

I'm fully in my chemo hole, but I'm happy with hitting my word count goals this round despite being heavily medicated lmao

I'm over 40,000 words into this! *Screams wildly and runs around*

Most of you know, I wasn't able to write for the past year due to chemotherapy, but this new chemo I'm on luckily lets my character's talk to me. Writing again feels so good, and I am so in love with these characters. They have NO right being so cute, tbh.

Pre-order will go live when the title/inspo reveal happens which will be soon!
