Is it HOT in Here?

Who’s ready for a “Hot Ghoul Summer”? (Sometimes I can’t even with myself.)

I promised a synopsis and cover of the upcoming novella, and since I stay true to my promises, here it is.

As I mentioned earlier, anyone who signs up for my ARC team will get a free copy way before anyone else. (It’s not set to be on sale until June 30th.) ARC team sign-ups will be coming soon.

Without further ado, here’s the official cover and synopsis:

Hazel Thornton is a small-town witch on the verge of becoming Moonridge’s next Virtus Suprema, a role her family has held for generations. All she has to do is survive her trial, keep her emotions in check, and avoid publicly imploding after her boyfriend dumps her without warning.

La’Tasha Morehouse has been at Hazel’s side since grade school. She’s the steady one. The strategist. The witch who knows how to catch Hazel when she starts to fall. She understands the town’s magic at a structural level and has spent years holding it together from the sidelines. When chaos erupts and the wards begin to fail, La’Tasha is forced to confront a long-suppressed legacy of her own.

As magical disasters escalate and a trickster ghoul emerges, Hazel and La’Tasha must rely on the bond that has carried them through every disaster since childhood. But the deeper they dig, the clearer it becomes that the threat isn’t just supernatural. It’s political, personal, and rooted in the very foundation of the town.

Magic, mystery, and fiercely loyal friendship collide in this prequel novella that sets the stage for the Welcome to Moonridge series.
