That's the dream. That's what I'm waiting for.

It's International Day of Forests!
Why not read a book set completely in a forest?
While in a forest? π
I've recently gone on sub with my rivals-to-lovers surfing romance in which Kelly Slater has a cameo role (naturally) and now I can't stop [picturing the movie version in which he'll play himself...how about it Kelly?
Anyone else? π©
Thank you π
Submission for my rivals-to-lovers surfing romance feels like paddling into a wave you canβt see yet. Is it a ten? Or a wipeout?

World Book Day has been fabulous!
Think Iβm gonna sleep for a week π
Very exciting for you!
They totally are! π
I am sooo nervous about being on sub with my rivals-to-lovers surfing romance.
Manifesting by imagining the PR boxes: surfboard keyrings, cocktail umbrellas, lei necklaces, sex wax, sun glasses, bio sun cream... a trip to Hawaii????
It's World Wildlife day. To celebrate that, we're going to think about all the animals in The Mermaid Chronicles...
mermaids (yes, it counts)
sharks
wales
turtles
jellyfish
dolphins
seahorses
a polar bear
wolves (of the sea variety)
sea monsters (yes, that counts too)
orcas
eels
muttwalkers
Did you know it was World Polar Bear Day?
I happen to have a polar bear in book 5 of The Mermaid Chronicles, but you'll have to read through the first 4 to get there...π
It's World Pangolian Day! There are no pangolians in my books whatsoever, but perhaps you'll enjoy a mermaid or a shark or a butterfly?

Book cover of Denizens of Darkness - orange tentacles
Happy Audio Publication day to Denizens of Darkness (book 6 in The Mermaid Chronicles)
Read for:
Evil gods of the deep
A magical trident
A love affair that goes oh so wrong...
Read by the most awesome Dane Anderson
Like Miss Peregrineβs but darker.
Like Red Riding Hood but bloodier.
Like Snow White but haunted.
Try The Unraveling of Luna Forester.
Brookwood Hospital was quiet at night.
Too quiet.
Until she heard the scratching in the walls
and the rustle of wings behind the mirror.
