I updated Night–and you can read it for free


A thank you gift

Hello Undines,

I truly never know when my brain will decide to finish some stories.

For example: at the end of last month, I suddenly finished my rewrite of AW Night and re-uploaded it to all my platforms.

Ta-da!

So, did I bring it down from 2 peppers to 1? Not really. 1/5 peppers, maybe. The story decided to stay in the midrange of steam levels for the series.

But I did add Carina and Trevelyon's meeting at the start of the book, plus a few other updates.

And for today, you can download it for free. Think of it as my early Christmas present to you!

I hope this season is full of coziness, romantic reads, and hope for the new year. Next month I will share writing updates and my (tentative) publishing plans for 2026.

Thanks so much for being here, and happy reading!

P.S. If I could have anything for Christmas, it would be reviews for my books. If you've read any of them, would you leave a review? You can find them on most online retailers. Some of them are currently on sale. (check the end of this newsletter for all links if you aren't a fan of the 'zon.)

this could be in a haunted house, right? (Unsplash) Time for the haunted past!! Hello Undines, I don't know about you, but this is my favorite time of year. Halloween, fall colors, cooler/cold weather, moody fog and cloudy skies: this is where I thrive. There's something quiet and cozy about autumn, but also a little unsettling. We might celebrate those who have gone before us and remember our own mortality. We might have to reckon with the past and how it didn't always happen the way we were...

It's not the seaside, but Undercurrent does belong by the water A reintroduction Hello Undines, First of all, thank you so much for signing up for my newsletter. I'm so glad you're here! I’m Riona, a neurospicy author who is obsessed with folklore and fairy tales. I am a proudly-identifying weirdo for a lot of reasons. This is my pen name. I began publishing books for younger readers and adults who aren’t looking for spice under a different name several years ago. ‘Riona’ is just over a year...
