I have always been a massive bookworm. Books are my outlet when the world is overwhelming or too busy. Since having my kids, I've used books and stories to escape from the day-to-day of stay-at-home parenting.
โโ
Since publishing my first book in 2022, the words have just kept flowing. Characters pop into my head at the most inopportune moments—typically when I'm driving or in the shower—and demand attention. They have things that need to be said, stories that must be told and I'll spend the next few weeks, months, or occasionally years, walking that path with them. Writing their stories and setting them loose on the world.
โ
It's the best/worst job I've ever had. Second only to parenting my not-so-little monsters.
Enchanted Tales
of magic & mayhem
![Our brave and [mostly] fearless pirate captain, Sid. Born Cressida Elaine Fitzpatrick, granddaughter of the Duke of Faodailโa self-righteous, abลญsive asshole if there ever was oneโwho attempted to marry her off as soon as she turned 16 to avoid another scandal like the one her mother caused that resulted in her birth.
Rather than be forced to marry one of her grandfather's rich, creepy old friends, Cressida ran away and joined a pirate crew, rising through the ranks and eventually claiming her own ship.
Over the last 15 years, she's made it her mission to wreck havoc on her grandfather's merchant ships at every turn. It was going quite well until she attacked a ship that would change the course of her future by forcing her to confront her past

Tristan Gallagher fell head over boots for a girl when he was just a teen. He had a ring made. He was going to marry that girl and give her the world. But before he could make an honest woman out of her, she died of a sudden illness. Her grandfather announced her death to the island, holding a week-long funeral for her. The ceremony had been beautiful and devastating.
Tristan hadn't been able to get out of bed for weeks afterward, and when he finally did, he swore he'd never love again. His parents gave up on him ever finding a wife and instead sent him on trade missions for the family business.
15 years later, while returning home from such a mission, Tristanโs ship is attacked and boarded by the ghost of a woman he'd been mourning all of his adult life. When she takes him hostage, Tristan decides this is the gods giving him a second chance, and he won't squander it.

Tatiana, or Tati as most of the crew calls her, has been sailing with the Merrow for the better part of the last 7 years. She's the chef, medic, poison specialist, andโon very rare occasionsโtheir top assassin. It's been a hell of a ride so far, despite how she originally came to join the crew, and she has no interest in letting her journey end any time soon.
So what if she has a but of a complicated history with one of the crewmates? They're adults. They can still work together. And if not, that's his problem.
