Originally from the United Kingdom, I now reside in Germany, although I freely admit to having left part of my heart in Anglesey, North Wales. Whilst I write mainly fantasy, I am more than happy to share my love of reading amongst the many different genres out there, and can always be found with a book close by.

SEALED WITH A CURSE is the prequel book in the Brodyr Alarch series, a Welsh gods and Brothers Grimm retelling where the love story grows quietly underneath a curse that asks Selene to make an impossible choice. 🌿

Have you ever loved a romance where the hero's greatest quality is just that he genuinely sees the heroine? 🤍

Good afternoon, everyone! The days are so long and light-filled right now, and there's real comfort in the idea that even in the darker stretches of life, something steady and bright is still there, just waiting for the wheel to turn back around.

Have a Terrific Tuesday. Take care and stay safe. 💙

Good morning, lovely people! There's something quietly powerful about the way a book can show you something true about yourself that you hadn't quite found the words for yet. Monday feels like a good day to pick something up with that in mind.

Have a Magnificent Monday. Take care and stay safe. 💙

The Gwragedd Annwn are Welsh lake maidens. Women of the Otherworld. Beautiful, gentle, dangerous to lose.

They rise from hidden lakes. Marry mortal men. Teach healing secrets. Then vanish if sacred promises are broken.

Perhaps they became the first Lady of the Lake. 🌿✨

Good morning, wonderful people! May is such a good month for remembering this, when the warmth is back in the air and the days are long and generous, that the light we carry inside us doesn't actually depend on the season outside to exist. Mind you, this may also be wishful thinking, as it's been rather chilly here this week!

Have a Fantastic Friday. Take care and stay safe. 💙

Good morning, friends! There's a lot of truth packed into this one. It's worth sitting with it for a moment, because the reading we do out of genuine love and curiosity (rather than obligation) has a way of quietly shaping us into who we actually are.

Have a Terrific Thursday. Take care and stay safe. 💙

Good morning, everyone! I don't think you need to be particularly fanciful to understand exactly what Borges meant by this, because anyone who's ever lost an entire afternoon to a good book and a comfortable chair knows there's really nothing quite like it. Have a Wonderful Wednesday. Take care and stay safe. 💙

Today is World Ovarian Cancer Day.

Ovarian cancer can be quiet in its early stages, which is exactly why awareness matters so much. It is so often caught late, because its symptoms — bloating, pelvic pain, fatigue — are easy to dismiss or explain away.

Every woman deserves to be heard when something feels wrong. And if something feels wrong in your own body, please don't let anyone dismiss it. 🩵
