Do you love fantasy romance filled with folklore, forbidden magic, and slow-burn love stories tangled in fate? I’m so excited to announce that ARC (Advance Reader Copy) sign-ups are now open for my upcoming release, Ravens and Ruin!
✨ About the Book
Release Date: 7th October 2025
Genre: Fantasy Romance / Mythic Folklore Retelling
Series: Book 4 in the Brodyr Alarch series (penultimate instalment — but can also be read as a standalone!)
Blurb:
In a land where gods still whisper through stone and stream, one man’s forbidden gift may be the key to salvation or ruin.
Two years after Harri’s coronation as King of Melthkior, unrest stirs beneath the earth. When General Ewan unknowingly consumes the flesh of the White Snake—a druidic creature steeped in forbidden magic—he gains the ability to hear the thoughts of beasts, birds, and even the wounded land itself. But such gifts are never freely given.
As shadows gather and the Veil frays, Ewan and Lowri—a healer-warrior bound to the old ways—must face gods, curses, and impossible choices. To succeed, they must decide whether the power to listen is enough… or if one must speak a truth that could shatter everything.
Ravens and Ruin is a spellbinding reimagining of the Brothers Grimm tale “The White Snake,” woven with ancient Welsh mythology. It continues the saga of the Brodyr Alarch while standing strong as its own tale of love, fate, and sacrifice.
