There's something about two people finding each other in the middle of an impossible task that gets me every time. 🌿 Ewan and Lowri don't come together easily, and I think that's what makes them worth following.

RAVENS AND RUIN is the fifth book in the Brodyr Alarch series, and it's the one where the mythology and the heart of the story pull hardest in the same direction 🤍 Welsh gods, Brothers Grimm folklore, and a quest that asks more than either of them expected to give.

Which do you love more in a fantasy romance, the slow burn or the moment it finally breaks? đź–¤

❄️ As December settles in and the nights grow long, it’s the perfect season for stories of wandering princes, whispered secrets, and divine mysteries.

In Feathers and Foxes, Terrwyn of Melthkior—a prince and wandering scribe—is summoned to uncover the truth behind stolen apples gifted by the goddess Olwen. But in the kingdom of Erast, riddles deepen, loyalties blur, and the sudden disappearance of a young maid named Sulien draws Terrwyn into something far more personal than a simple quest.

A reimagining of 'The Golden Bird,' woven with Welsh mythology and quiet romance, FEATHERS AND FOXES is ideal winter reading for fans of fairytale retellings and mythic fantasy. 🦊✨

I've been thinking about swans again, which probably means I'm deep enough into the Brodyr Alarch world that it's starting to think back at me.

Swans in Welsh and Celtic mythology are rarely what they appear. They carry enchantments, wear transformations like second skins, and move between worlds with a grace that makes the crossing look easy when it never is. The Mabinogion is full of creatures that belong to two states at once — neither fully one thing nor the other — and swans embody that ambiguity more completely than almost anything else in the tradition.

There's something about that liminality that feels endlessly useful for storytelling. A character who exists between worlds is a character with a particular kind of loneliness and a particular kind of power. 🦢

The September issue of my monthly newsletter is out now, and it's very much a month of turning points.

This issue covers the cover reveal for my upcoming contemporary romance, Only in Fairy Tales (due December 2026), the opening of the ARC list, early news of a new novel in progress, and a round-up of Welsh cultural dates including Gŵyl Canol Hydref and the Abergavenny Food Festival.

There are also four free book giveaways for anyone looking to discover new authors in romantic fantasy, cosy mystery, mythology-inspired fiction, and sweet romance.

If you write, read, or simply love stories rooted in place and folklore, I'd love to have you along for the journey.

✨ Blessed Festival of Arianrhod! ✨

As a mythology-loving author, this day always stirs my imagination. On December 2nd, we honour Arianrhod — the star-crowned Goddess who descends in her silver chariot to watch the tides and the shifting seasons. 🌙🌊

Her Welsh myths speak of destiny, cycles, and the brave act of reclaiming one’s own path. And woven through all her stories is a gentle reminder that every cycle in our lives carries its own purpose — even the quiet ones, the difficult ones, and the ones we don’t fully understand until later.

As the year leans toward its close, may her guiding light help you step into whatever new chapter is waiting for you — with clarity, courage, and a touch of winter magic. 📚✨
