Snippet and Pirates Week

Having a girlfriend with dragons is fun. Usually. ๐Ÿ˜…

"I had to explain that I wasn't actually giving her permission to eat you."

Maria wasn't sure whether to feel grateful or concerned. "Which one wants to eat me?"

Em offered an apologetic smile. "Nymeth."

Oh, the big, scary one!

Wonderful.

I think Iโ€™ll be back with a couple of updates this week, but until then, I hope you have the best week possible. ๐Ÿ’™

Snippet and Sapphic Dragon Books

Em has five dragons. Maria hasโ€ฆEm. ๐Ÿ‰

"What she wanted?" Emilia repeated. "You think Catherine's ambitions have ever been that simple? Oh, you think the captain's ambitious. You think she's obsessive. You think she's manipulative, but she's none of those things, compared to Catherine. Why do you think Catherine keeps winning?"

Zain lifted his chin. "I knew Catherine."

"You think you did," Emilia said, "but trust me. No one knows Catherine. Not until you've been part of her gameโ€”and lost. There were a thousand ways Catherine might've survived, but do you know what none of those would've done-that this one did?" She pointed her finger at Zain. "This. You're the one giving Catherine what she wants, quartermaster."

Author Copies and Another Thank You

Release month for Goddess of the Sea (Lesbians, Pirates, & Dragons: Book 2) has ended, and in the midst of migraines, anxiety, and a kidโ€™s ear infection, I have thoroughly failed promote it. (Not that Iโ€™ve ever been good at promoting anything. ๐Ÿ˜…)

But my author copies came in, and I wanted to share them with you! ๐Ÿ’™

Itโ€™s always magical to see the words that occupied my heart and mind for so long printed on the pages of a bookโ€”to hold them and touch them. ๐Ÿ’™

It can be hard to focus on the magic, though, when Iโ€™m exhausted and my headโ€™s all full of fear and doubt. But actuallyโ€ฆthatโ€™s when itโ€™s most important. Right? ๐Ÿ’™


Also, my thank you post for Goddess of the Sea reminded me that itโ€™s been a while since I did one for Book 1, and since it recently passed 1,300 reviews & ratings on Amazon, it felt like a good time for a new one. ๐Ÿ’™

So, thank you for every review youโ€™ve left on Amazon, Audible, and everywhere else. Youโ€™re amazing, and Iโ€™m eternally grateful for you all. ๐Ÿ’™


P.S. – From the time I wrote this to the time I went to share it, the world already feels like a darker place. To all of you who are here in the U.S., I’m sending so much love today. I wish I had words, but all I can feel is fear right now. I hope you’re all rightโ€”as much as you can be, anyway. ๐Ÿ’™
