Join the Spring Feast of the Goddess


"What do you find beautiful about it?"

Hello Undines,

The above line is spoken by the lord of Alderwood Estate to his new bride, Lady Carina, on the night of their wedding feast (and other...festivities, shall we say). Ready to read Carina's story?

Here's the blurb for Night: an Arranged Marriage Short Romance:


I can hardly believe that the large, dark-haired hulk of a man sitting next to me is my husband. I almost wonder if he has forgotten I exist.

The Spring Feast of the Goddess is a night of revelry and rendezvous at the Alderwood estate. For Carina Yardley, it’s also the night of her wedding to the brooding Trevelyon Granville, and the start of a new life.

The new bride of Alderwood Estate can’t make out her tall, enigmatic husband, or why he seems angry at her, until a few words during their wedding feast turn into a sensuous encounter that offers more than one resolution for the new Lady of Alderwood.

Night is part of the Alderwood Wedding series and is the only book that doesn’t contain magic.

Alderwood Wedding is a series of 3 short romances each featuring a different couple and told from the FMC’s point of view. They are interconnected but can be read alone. For readers 18+.

Thanks for being here, and happy reading!

A new lady and her lord. A forest dweller and a stable master. A village healer and a steward.

a quote from our favorite water spirit, Rodan And the winners are... Hello Undines, Let's get right to it: last month I asked for your name and country of residence to be entered into the Crystalline giveaway, and here are the winners!

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...

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...
