The Hollow Queen Series

So excited to announce this one! I’m giving away a free novella ebook when you sign up to The Hollow Queen mailing list!

It’s called The Shadowed Bride, and details the events that run directly into the beginning of Vows of Shadow, when Leila stands before Drazan for the first time. But this novella focuses on Drazan’s side of this beginning, and gives insight into what he already thinks of Leila before she arrives at Ravaryn to become his bride.

Their joining is not a typical arrangement. How does it come to be? And how much does he already want her, based only on a name and a dream – and perhaps something older, darker.

The novella ALSO features the Prologue and first 2 chapters of Vows of Shadow, culminating in the moment when The Shadowed Bride ends and Vows of Shadow begins. Plus a few unrevealed pieces of art that go with the story.

The cover reveal is below. If you know my work, you can see that this series is not my usual, but it’s meant to be dark fantasy romance. And while there is a lot of character development and plot, let’s face it: there is also a lot of sex. (shhhh!)

The Shadowed Bride
A Hollow Queen Novella

They say Warlord Drazan Virel conquered the south with fire and blood. That he sleeps beneath a fortress carved from the bones of gods. That his last bride vanished without a trace.

Only he knows which of the whispers are true.

The fall of House Morana was swift—its banners burned, its bloodlines buried. All but one. A girl. A shadow. A promise he did not finish.

He never saw her face. Never heard her voice. But still… she comes to him in dreams. A woman forged from smoke and hunger. A challenge. A match. A curse.

Now, as Drazan prepares to marry for power, she appears at his gates—filthy from the road, eyes like shattered emerald, spine unbroken. She does not bow. She does not yield.

And Ravaryn begins to stir.

Darkness calls her name.

The Shadowed Bride is a sensual, atmospheric novella set in the world of The Hollow Queen—a tale of war, prophecy, and the pull of something far older than love.
