Not every FMC can fight through exhaustion, ignore pain, or push her body beyond its limits, and she shouldn’t have to.

When I started writing “The Oracle & The Wolf,” I wanted to tell a paranormal romance story where the FMC’s only battle isn’t against villains. It’s also living with chronic pain and fatigue while still getting to experience adventure, mystery and extraordinary love.

Her challenges are real, but they don’t make her less worthy of being the main character of an epic fantasy romance.

As someone who fights this battle daily, even if only one reader finishes her story and feels seen, that would mean everything to me.

Love stories belong to all of us.

Follow along as I write my debut paranormal romance.

Calling all romantasy and paranormal romance readers…

If your fictional crushes are supernatural, your TBRs are never ending, and “he’s dangerous” is a green flag…

WELCOME. You’re my kind of people.

I’m a romantasy and paranormal romance reader writing my debut paranormal romance, “The Oracle & The Wolf.” I post all about impossible romances, supernatural secrets and MMCs who have ruined our standards. If this sounds like your kind of thing, stick around. I think we’re going to get along!

Imagine having a fated mate who can feel your every emotion. She’s a human oracle with visions, chronic illness, and a past that makes trusting anyone difficult. He’s a wolf shifter, next in line to become pack alpha, who has no idea what he’s getting himself into.

Welcome to “The Oracle & The Wolf,” a paranormal romance set in modern-day New Orleans.

Would you want your fated mate to feel everything you feel, or would you rather keep some emotions private?

He’s just misunderstood, ok? She doesn’t get it.

Fantasy Romance readers, which main character are you defending despite all of the evidence?

Just one more chapter… said every paranormal romance reader when they should be sleeping.

And somehow, we keep doing it! 😂

Which one do you fall for, the slow burn where “it’s” finally going to happen, banter or starting the next book in a series?

What’s more heart-wrenching than forbidden love? A character who believes they’re not worthy of love… until someone comes along and changes that, without asking them to change who they are.

Romantasy and paranormal romance readers, what romance trope breaks your heart every single time?

November TBR (maybe I’ll stick to the plan this month, ha)

This month is a mix of romantasy, shifter romance, an ARC, two beta reads and a mission for a good comp. And this is where I need your help!

What’s the best shifter romance you’ve ever read? Bonus points if it’s a wolf shifter and human, with fated mates, found family, modern day setting. Add your recommendations in the comments.

October TBR vs. Reality! My plan took a detour…

Blood of Truth and Traitors: I really like it so far, but it got moved to November’s TBR. How is your TBR going?

Save this if you’re looking for your next romantasy or paranormal romance read!

The Oracle & The Wolf

Fated mates? Yes. A reluctant chosen one? Absolutely. A dangerous love interest? Definitely. And snarky banter? Sold. I’m buying it!

Some romantasy tropes are simply impossible to resist. But if you could only keep ONE, which would it be?
