The epic conclusion to the intensely romantic and beautifully written story that started in Divine Rivals.Two weeks have passed since Iris Winnow returned home bruised and heartbroken from the front, but the war is far from over. Roman is missing, and the city of Oath continues to dwell in a state of disbelief and ignorance. When Iris and Attie are given another chance to report on Dacre’s movements, they both take the opportunity and head westward once more despite the danger, knowing it’s only a matter of time before the conflict reaches a city that’s unprepared and fracturing beneath the chancellor’s reign.Since waking below in Dacre’s realm, Roman cannot remember his past. But given the reassurance that his memories will return in time, Roman begins to write articles for Dacre, uncertain of his place in the greater scheme of the war. When a strange letter arrives by wardrobe door, Roman is first suspicious, then intrigued. As he strikes up a correspondence with his mysterious pen pal, Roman will soon have to make a decision: to stand with Dacre or betray the god who healed him. And as the days grow darker, inevitably drawing Roman and Iris closer together…the two of them will risk their very hearts and futures to change the tides of the war. Read more

No one really gives you a heads-up about what to expect when you get married, do they? Funny how life works—schools will teach you how to measure the angles of a triangle (which, let's be honest, 99% of us will never need), but something as fundamental as understanding human relationships? Nope. Who needs that, right? “Parallel lines? Essential. Understanding why your spouse is suddenly mad? Overrated.” Which got me thinking—was this whole marriage thing engineered to fail? Hear me out. Could it be that big corporations and the government want us to crash and burn? Think about it: a failed marriage doesn’t just break hearts—it powers entire industries. Divorce lawyers crack open champagne and bill by the hour, so go ahead and take three hours to explain why he leaves cabinet doors open like a sociopath.The beauty industry’s armed with mommy makeovers and “revolutionary” diet pills. Then there’s the parade of dating apps charging you $39.99 a month to find “The One” (again!).Therapists make a killing reminding you that screaming "CALM DOWN" has never actually calmed anyone. And don’t forget car dealerships—because nothing screams “I’m totally over it” like a freshly minted single dad in a shiny new convertible… Seriously, a messy divorce fuels at least 30 industries. Who were we supposed to learn this from anyway? Hollywood? The same people who treat weddings like blockbuster premieres and divorces like red carpet events? Let’s face it: the bar is on the floor. And speaking of low bars, let’s rewind to our first day of school. Remember being an eager little sponge, ready to soak up life-changing knowledge? What did they teach us? How to calculate the area of a triangle and solve for x. Life. Altering. Stuff. Meanwhile, the tools for managing communication, relationships, marriage—or, even a basic argument? Total silence. It’s like the curriculum board said, “Memorizing the periodic table? Life or death. Emotional intelligence? Meh, they’ll wing it.”Spoiler alert: we didn’t Read more

What makes a romance novel a romance? How do you write a kissing book?Writing a well-structured romance isn’t the same as writing any other genre—something the popular novel and screenwriting guides don’t address. The romance arc is made up of its own story beats, and the external plot and theme need to be braided to the romance arc—not the other way around.Told in conversational (and often irreverent) prose, Romancing the Beat can be read like you are sitting down to coffee with romance editor and author Gwen Hayes while she explains story structure. The way she does with her clients. Some of whom are regular inhabitants of the New York Times and USA Today bestseller lists.Romancing the Beat is a recipe, not a rigid system. The beats don’t care if you plot or outline before you write, or if you pants your way through the drafts and do a “beat check” when you’re revising. Pantsers and plotters are both welcome. So sit down, grab a cuppa, and let’s talk about kissing books. Read more
