She was the moon. He was the night.
Together, they rise. Together, they fall.
In the wake of the eclipse and her father’s death, Layna’s dormant powers awaken with devastating force—wild, unpredictable, and impossible to hide. As she struggles to lead Alzahra as its new queen, whispers swirl about the infamous Moon Queen, threatening to expose a truth that could unravel everything. When vicious rumors ignite across the continent, moonlit fury simmers in her veins, and her control slips further from reach with each passing day.
Zarian has turned his back on the Medjai, determined to carve out a new future at Layna’s side. But the past clings to him like a shadow—and he carries secrets he’s never dared speak aloud. The world around him shifts like desert sands, uncertain and ever-changing, but one thing remains constant: his need to protect Layna, no matter the cost. But when an old friend resurfaces, Zarian is forced to confront a question he thought he’d already answered—can he truly leave the Medjai behind?
When dangerous forces rise against her, Layna is forced to flee Alzahra and hunted across the continent. She must face the rising storm inside her and uncover the truth behind her celestial light—even if it means setting fire to everything she’s fought to protect.
Will Layna harness her light and restore peace to the continent—or will her powers burn too bright to be contained?

A Siren Princess on a mission. A Sea Hunter trying to prove himself. A love story for the ages
Love grows with the tide–and can destroy like a wrathful wave.
The Seven Kingdoms are under threat. Sea Hunters, descendants of Pirates, are slaughtering sirens and sea creatures alike. Siren Princess Eliana Leilani of Cerulia is tasked with going to the surface with her little sister, Elara, in an attempt to infiltrate the college campus, where the suspected Hunters dwell. Little does Eliana know that uncovering the Sea Hunters responsible for the attacks on her people would change everything she’s ever known, both about her world and herself.
Will Sawyer is a ruthless Sea Hunter, fighting alongside his father and younger brother, Aidan, to protect unsuspecting humans from the wrath of supernatural entities. He holds a dark grudge against sirens–they killed his grandfather in cold blood. Hunting and sailing are his only sources of solace–until he meets Eliana. He is instantly beguiled by her, tumbling head over heels, with disastrous consequences.
Tensions rise when the Siren Kingdoms and Hunter’s Association encounter an even larger threat than they can handle. Family bonds will be tested, beliefs will be challenged, and love will prove to be an unbreakable force–or used as a weapon for revenge.

🏜️ Sprawling, desert world
In a glittering Sahara Desert palace, many have come to die…
I am Zair, reviled, half-blooded, and dangerous. Aziza magic coils in my veins like a curse, and for that, they fear me. But I will not stand by while traitors attack my academy and vanish with its students, especially as my sister is targeted.
They sent me to the palace as a student envoy to the king’s coronation, but I know the truth. I’m a weapon, a spy cloaked in silk and suspicion, sent to unmask those behind the disappearances. The air is thick with secrets, and the palace feels alive, pulsing with night magic and silent menace.
Then I meet him. Dathan. A rival spy from another academy—sharp-eyed, clever, cunning, and deadly. I don’t trust him, and I shouldn’t want him. But the pull between us is maddening, dangerous, a flame I cannot smother.
As more students vanish and shadows stir in every corridor, we have no choice but to join forces. Yet every moment spent together fractures my resolve.
In a palace where ambition poisons the air and betrayal hides behind every smile, I must unravel the truth before time runs out—while guarding my heart against the one man who could ruin more than the mission… he could destroy me.

To Adrian, the gods were never anything to be worshipped, just tolerated. But in the walled city of Sanctuary, whether through the religious fervor of the elite or the quaking fear of the poor, the Geist have always been served. And now it’s Adrian’s turn.
Born into power and raised for greatness, Dante stands for everything Adrian has come to despise, but he may be her only hope of survival. When the two of them are bonded against their will and forced to compete together in the Trials, the god’s ancient gauntlet of physical brutality and psychological torture, they have no choice but to set aside old prejudices and work together. Navigating religious zealots, a patriarch intent on breeding the pair for power, and the increasingly obvious cruelty of the gods, Adrian must come to terms with the fact that, whether Culled or Championed, we all serve the gods in the end. And, for her, betrayal has always been waiting just around the corner.

We’re celebrating the release of Tusks, Tails & Teacakes by T.L. Stone! If you like your romantic fantasy cozy with a healthy sprinkle of cottagecore, you’re going to love this!
Tusks, Tails & Teacakes: A Slice-of-Life Cozy Romantic Fantasy (Tales from the Tavern Book 1)
Publication Date: April 4, 2025
Genre: Cozy Romantic Fantasy High fantasy He falls first Cinnamon roll hero Low stakes Slow-burn romance Found family Cozy vibes Tavern makeover Coming home Mythical creatures Neurodivergent orc
A scoop of high fantasy, a spoonful of Hallmark rom-com, and a generous sprinkle of cottagecore coziness.
Welcome to The Tusk & Tail Tavern where the fire is always crackling, the meat pies are rich and savory, the air is filled with laughter and bard-song, and friends are like family. At least, it used to be…
Half-elf Lira is eager to return to The Tusk & Tail Tavern, where she and her companions set off on their adventures many years ago. But the rundown tavern is no longer the bustling hub where dwarf mercenaries and halfling farmers shared pints over a friendly game of dice. More crucially, what Lira came back for—what she buried in the tavern’s basement—is now bricked over.
What better way to stay close to her hidden treasure—and figure out a way to retrieve it—than to offer to restore the tavern? After all, her grandmother taught her to bake, and she still remembers the recipes—for the most part.
She doesn’t count on having to partner with a dwarf warrior named Sassy or have a surprisingly clever, winged ermine take up residence in her kitchen. And she’s grateful for the shy orc soldier who offers to fix her stove and everything else that keeps breaking in the tavern, but why does he seem afraid to talk to her?
As she and her rag-tag group breathe life back into The Tusk & Tail Tavern, Lira remembers the joy in an evening by the fire, the value of a true friend, and what it’s like to fight as hard for the quiet moments in life as the ones marked by glory and treasure.
But leaving your past in the past isn’t always so easy. Danger has a way of finding Lira no matter how far she runs, but now she has more to protect than herself. And if she wants to leave her days of deception behind her, she’ll have to reveal the truth to those she’s grown to love.
Tusks, Tails & Teacakes is a wholesome, low-stakes, slice-of-life cozy fantasy chock full of mythical creatures and magic. It features no kingdoms to be saved, no epic journeys or warring armies. Only gentle intrigue, the power of unexpected friendship, and the hope that you can make the world a better place one buttery teacake and warm cup of chai at a time.
My thoughts: If you’re like me and you’re waiting for the next Legends & Lattes, read this. I loved it. It’s a sweet and charming story of friendship, found family and falling in love.
Lira leaves her crew and returns to the village she grew up in, hoping to retrieve something she hid there. Unfortunately someone has concreted over it, in the cellar of the inn, the Tusk & Tail.
Things have gone downhill since the inn keeper’s wife died, and he longer serves food. Teaming up with dwarf Sassy, Lira sets to work cleaning up the inn and baking her grandmother’s recipes.
As the duo make changes, the customers come, including members of the town’s guards, an orc Lira remembers from her childhood. A few old friends make their way there too and soon Lira is building a new crew to help her retrieve her grandmother’s recipe book from under the inn.
This was so lovely and cute and I can’t wait to read book two!

Romantic Comedy
Secret Pining
Friends to Rivals to Lovers
13 Going on 30 meets Miss Congeniality in this time travel romantic comedy about an FBI agent trying to navigate her way through betrayal, love, and time.
Atta Suarez’s life consists of crossword puzzles and sampling appetizers while obliterating her friend group every couple of weeks in a battle of board game wits. That’s on top of being knee-deep in criminal cases at the Denver Bureau trying her best to keep up with Agent Ben Brown, her best friend’s brother.
Ben’s been around since elementary school, but for the last five years they’ve been working the same hours, living in the same apartment complex, and sharing the same FBI agent lifestyle. Their close connection is undeniable. Atta only wishes they could take it one step further. Because with Ben, it’s always been a romantic connection that she’s craved.
But when Atta finds herself under perplexing circumstances and becomes threatened by her own FBI department after stumbling upon a gruesome crime, Atta is separated from Ben by time. She finds herself in 1987 where helpful clues litter the mountains and streets of Colorado.
Navigating 1987 brings answers for the future and—by some miraculous twist of fate—an unexpected chance at love. With an opportunity to pursue her ‘perfect match’ and potentially take down the FBI threat from the past, Atta might be able to get everything she wants. But time is in her way and every decision has its consequences. And then there’s also the question of whether or not the rules of this alternate 1987 universe will even allow it.
Tropes include friends to lovers, lake setting, family secrets, and small-town charm.
