🦄💜 A Heroine I Loved Getting to Know 💜🦄

Juno’s vocabulary deserves its own dictionary, and I would happily read every ridiculous entry. 😂

📖 Electrifying Awakening by @sarapetrie

Juno already has a demanding job, children to care for and a husband she loves. When strange experiences begin disrupting her life, figuring out what’s happening becomes rather more complicated than her usual police work. This is the opening of an adult fantasy trilogy, with a why-choose romance developing around an existing marriage.

I loved how much of Juno’s personality comes through in her thoughts. She’s outspoken and wonderfully ridiculous, but also attentive, vulnerable and fiercely compassionate. The quieter moments with her family and friends made me care about what she stood to lose, while the investigation kept me following the clues.

If you love:

🧲 Romance shaped by fate and personal choice
💍 A heroine with an established family life
🌈 Friendships built on mutual care
🔎 Police cases with unsettling supernatural connections
🇳🇱 Fantasy rooted in a Dutch setting

Meeting Sara at Fantasy Forest made me curious about her characters. Reading their story made me want to spend more time with them. There’s a cliffhanger, and I’m very keen to continue!

⭐ 5/5

💜 From Fantasy Forest to My Bookshelf 💜

A lovely meeting, followed by a very special bookmail! 📦✨

I met the lovely @sarapetrie at Fantasy Forest: Libertalia and visited her stall in the authors’ market on Sunday. Sara was so warm and enthusiastic, and I loved hearing about her characters and how she wrote the kind of book she wanted to read.

The beautiful books caught my eye, but hearing her speak so passionately about the story made me excited to discover it for myself. I bought Electrifying Awakening, the first book in her why-choose, fated-mates fantasy trilogy, The First Living High Nymph. 💜

And what a lovely parcel arrived! Purple wrapping, dried flowers, the sweetest little extras, a signed copy and such a lovely personalised message. There was so much care in the details. 🥹

Thank you, Sara, for such a memorable meeting and thoughtful bookmail. I can’t wait to dive into Juno’s world! ✨

Have you ever picked up a book after meeting its author?

This trilogy holds a special place in my heart and so I've been trying to do this full cosplay for aggges. @sarapetrie is one of the best chickens and I hope I get to meet her one day.

If you've not checked this series out yet this is your sign to start it! Full of fun, fantasy and that other f word 😂

Think my son and the neighbourhood kids had way too much fun throwing glitter at me.

So everyone has been asking what my take Is on the Indie authors to pay $1000 so here is my response

Disclaimer: absolutely no one asked my take at all but I'm giving it anyway 😅

All authors are amazing. Indie authors are superheroes. They need more support than everyone, not people taking advantage. Have tagged a few of my favourite Indie/smaller authors- go check them out
