Scottish/Celtic Folklore and Fantasy
A Curse of Power: Book 1 (A Dark versus Light Portal Fantasy)
She escaped into stories. One of them called her home.
Trapped in a dead-end job, and feeling like a stranger in her own story, Mae longs for charmed and imagined worlds—ones where magic reigns, kingdoms rise and fall, and a dashing Lord might just sweep her off her feet. What she found was a curse—and a destiny she never saw coming.
When a heartbroken young woman is thrust into a fantastical Fae realm of Aelba eerily reminiscent of the books she once used to escape her pain, she must confront ancient magic, unexpected destiny, and the truth about who she really is—before the curse binding her new world consumes them both.
What if the life Mae was meant for isn’t the one she lost… but the one she’s about to discover? In a world of ancient curses and forgotten magic, her broken heart might be the key to everything as she navigates a world of light and dark and a Trow King who wants to destroy her.
A Curse of Power is an epic Scottish Portal Fantasy for the broken-hearted and brave, featuring Fae based on Celtic mythology and the legends of the Tuatha Dé Danann, in a world mired in conflict and one Mae can’t escape.
For readers of Sarah J. Maas, Diana Gabaldon, Krista Stewart, Alix E. Harrow and Holly Black—who crave portal fantasy, aching romance, and ancient magic. Or those who loved A Court of Thorns and Roses, An Enchantment of Ravens, or The Ten Thousand Doors of January, this will be your next obsession.

A Curse of Blood: Book 2 in the Blood and Power Series
To save the realm, she must face the monster—and the truth within.
When Maela awakens in a realm of magic and myth, everything she thought she knew shatters. Named the Seelie Queen of the Summer Fae and heir to the ancient Kingdom of Aelba, Maela must embrace a legacy rooted in forgotten gods and hidden power.
Tasked with restoring peace to a fractured kingdom, Maela’s journey takes her deep into enemy territory to confront the tyrannical Trow King. To succeed, she must unlock the secrets of the Tuatha Dé Danann—mystic treasures with the power to turn the tide of war.
But as battle looms, Maela is torn from those she loves and captured by a legendary beast whispered about only in myth. A beast who holds the key to her lost past… and possibly her heart.
In a land where loyalty is fragile and destiny demands sacrifice, can Maela survive long enough to unite her kingdom—or will her bloodline’s curse destroy it all?
Perfect for fans of Sarah J. Maas, Holly Black, and Adrienne Young, A Curse of Blood is a sweeping fae fantasy filled with political intrigue, slow-burn romance, mythical beasts, and the power of discovering who you were always meant to be.

A Cosy Christmas Romantic Fantasy
‘Some miracles only come in winter.’
On Christmas Eve, Daniel Hale expects nothing but silence. A reclusive writer with words locked deep inside him, he has grown used to empty nights and a quiet home at the edge of town. But when frost begins to bloom across windows in impossible patterns, Daniel follows the shimmer and discovers something—or someone—extraordinary.
Lumi is no ordinary stranger. A spirit of winter, she has walked the snowy streets for centuries, unseen, blessing the weary and the hopeful with her touch of frost. No one has ever looked at her. No one has ever asked her to stay. Until Daniel.
As the night deepens, firelight melts into laughter, secrets are shared, and a fragile spark of love begins to thaw the loneliness in both their hearts. But dawn is coming, and Lumi’s bargain with the frost means she cannot remain past sunrise. Choosing love may mean losing everything.
A tender, magical novella about belonging, wonder, and the choice to risk everything for one perfect Christmas.
Coming 31st January
Every winter demands a reckoning.
In the remote Highland glen of Glenarraidh, love is not celebrated—it is tested. Each Valentine’s Eve, the Cailleach, ancient goddess of winter, rises to judge whether mortal devotion is strong enough to deserve the return of spring.
Ailsa, a healer’s daughter shaped by quiet endurance, and Ruaridh, a shepherd burdened by a violent past, have loved one another without promises or spectacle. But when the Cailleach turns her cold gaze upon their bond, they are forced into trials of hunger, silence, and truth—tests that strip love down to its barest form.
As winter tightens its grip, secrets surface, sacrifices are offered, and the goddess herself must confront the grief that made her eternal. For in a world where spring is forbidden to interfere, and love cannot beg for mercy, endurance alone may not be enough.
The Valentine of the Cailleach is a dark, lyrical reimagining of Scottish folklore—a story of love that does not conquer winter, but teaches it when to step aside.
The Valentine of the Cailleach is the follow-up to the cosy Christmas romantasy, Frost and Flame. The Cailleach returns to test the love of mortals in this reimagined tale from Scottish folklore.
