What to Expect in my Books?
Both my fantasy and contemporary books have the same expectations. They are PG-13 and appropriate for upper teens (15+) and older, who are searching for storylines with no-spice romance. If you have a question about a topic in one of my books, please feel free to reach out. I want to make sure you are comfortable with your purchase.
Please note that my fantasy books are categorized as young adult (YA), and my contemporary books as new adult (NA), based on the main character's age.
Clean/Sweet Romance

Kisses only (very swoony ones)

No fade to black

Tension/chemistry/banter between characters
No Swearing
-
No modern day swearing or curses
-
Made up curses from the story like "The Sorcerer take me."
Healthy Relationships
While I might show red flags in a relationship (ie. mental or physical abuse), I won't go into deep detail to overload a reader. Their love interest will always be a good example of true love, compassion, grace, compromise, and forgiveness.
No AI
All my books are human-inspired and human-authored. Yes, I use emdashes and don't plan on stopping. All my covers, promotional graphics, and character art fall into this category. I want to support human creativity.
No Heavy Gore
There may be battles and injuries, but I will never go into intense detail that will make you queasy.
-
Characters may die (especially villains) but it's done in a delicate manner.
Imperfect Characters
Expect my characters to make choices based off their personality, whether that's good or bad. Characters will have to make hard choices and make a mess of things. But in the end, they will learn from the mistakes, growing as a person.
Happily Ever After
My main characters will always end in a healthy relationship with a spouse or fiancé.
-
No bully romances
-
No immoral or taboo relationships
