Take Me to Church is such a weird song, the first verse is all sexy dark witchy vibes and the second verse is like entirely about eating a horse

The Dividing Sky is one of @PublishersWkly’s Best Books of 2024! It’s so surreal to see my book alongside so many other amazing novels. Thank you for this honor!

My second Native romcom comes out July 22, 2024 with Berkley. here is the gorgeous cover illustrated by the incomparable @holoskeart
Loved writing my take on a cowboy romance, reclaiming the genre that has been historically racist & perpetuated harmful stereotypes for decades.

I'll never forget being on a Romantasy panel with 4 authors & the moderator asked if WE thought our books were romantasy. We all said no.
I don't care if people call my books romantasy, but the unclear definition can set up readers to be disappointed in the romance/fantasy ratio
