Hey friends! If you subscribe to my newsletter, you already know about this. I’ve talked before on this blog about Wicked Garden, my Southern gothic novella. You’ve even seen a couple of excerpts of it in progress! It’s is an emotional romance with an unstereotypical hero that deals with a haunting. I’m so pleased with how this story came out, and I hope you like it, too!
Wicked Garden is in this boxed set with nine other novellas called Under Your Spell: a Romance Boxed Set of Masked Balls, Haunted Gardens, Magic, and More. It launches in the fall, but you can pre-order it here for only 99 cents, which is a pretty great price for 10 novellas!
Here’s the blurb for my story:
After a painful breakup, Nicole moves to a house in Savannah, resolving to be single. Aaron, her new neighbor, is a true Southern gentleman who tempts her to forget that plan. But the house’s evil history haunts the garden and Nicole’s dreams… and Aaron has secrets of his own. To end the curse, Aaron and Nicole will have to overcome their past fears and give their relationship a chance to bloom.
Fair warning: my novella does have one explicit sex scene. A lot of people enjoy those, and I enjoy writing them, but they aren’t everyone’s preference, so I just wanted to let you know! I believe that most of the stories by the other authors aren’t steamy.
If you do pre-order it, please let me know below so I can thank you personally! If you don’t read romance and just want to say congratulations, that’s awesome too. No matter what, thank you SO MUCH for inspiring me with all your comments, and thanks for reading the blog!

Thanks, Bryn! I always enjoy reading your blog posts – they’re very inspiring to an inexperienced and insecure novelist with the merest outline of an idea but an inspiration that just won’t let me go. I know I’ll enjoy reading your novella, which I just ordered!
Aw Karena, thanks so very much for the kind words! And thanks for ordering! I hope you enjoy the story. 🙂
I’ll admit to enjoying a bit of steamy romance – I’ve pre-ordered and look forward to reading the set.
