Which room would you visit in Dormara? 👀✨

Dormara is a sanctuary where you can imagine all you desire within the safety of its rooms ❤️

The Lacuna (still waters), for those seeking to relax and stop thinking ~ each pool is equipped with multi-coloured bottles you select according to your fancy.

The Mimesis Court for those longing to dance all night in the masquarade ballroom, or just to live your best Bridgerton revelry!

The Ethereon, to stretch your imagination and imagine anything under the sun, from memories or bookish worlds (or the perfect place for a date!)

Beware though, in places where dreams come too easily, sometimes unwanted things lurk in the darkness. Add a secret romance and a mad creator and you have the perfect recipe for disaster…👀

Synopsis:

Dormara was built to heal.

A sanctuary where powerful algorithms sculpt your perfect dream, and nightmares are rewritten. But for those who enter its doors, waking isn’t always guaranteed.

Tristan Serrano grew up inside its walls, guiding guests through illusions crafted by AI. But the longer he serves the Institute, the more its seams begin to fray – and the more he begins to doubt the life he’s always known.

Serena Montclair came seeking peace. A way to move on from her past. But some shadows refuse to be forgotten. Dormara’s beauty is deceptive, and the closer she and Tristan are drawn to each other, the harder it becomes to ignore the quiet unraveling beneath it all – that not all love was built to endure.

As the borders between reality and dream dissolve, Serena and Tristan must face the secret at the heart of the sanctuary:

In Dormara, not everyone who dreams is meant to wake.

The novel is available now in all three formats ~ eBook, paperback and hardcover on Amazon. ❤️ The hardcover is by far the most popular and the best format for comfort and ease of reading! If you feel like the synopsis appeals to you, I’d be ever so grateful if you could follow the link below 🌹

Until next time friends, stay tuned for more exciting content, interviews, discussions, artwork and quotes! 🙂

✨MY NEW COVER REVEAL✨ DORMARA

I’ve been sitting on this secret for almost a year… 🤫 but finally here it is ~ my new novel ‘Dormara.’ Specially for all you gothic romance lovers out there! 😍

This project challenged me in a totally different way, pushing me to refine the themes I love even more and improve as a writer. I truly hope you fall in love with Tristan & Serena as much as I did while bringing their story (and this world!) to life 🥹

(No pre-release this time, I wanted to make sure the quality was perfect before you all got your hands on it!) The hardcover turned out beautifully though🥹(sneak peek in my stories) 👀

Over the next few weeks I’ll also be sharing more behind-the-scenes of writing ‘Dormara’, reflections on ‘Caskets of Ice’ and ‘Tales from the Manor’, and why I shifted from dark fantasy → horror → sci-fi romance ❤️‍🔥

The Rag Dolls ~ Artwork & Happy 2025!

Hello guys! I’m alive again! (Kinda!) Being in dental pain over Xmas is no fun! 😖 Sending hugs to you friends, and be sure to look after yourself! Wishing you the best for 2025 🥳🥂😘

Have you managed to achieve your reading goal, or set up any for the coming year? I read around 56 this time, (58 last year) but to be honest, I’m just going with the flow! I do plan on branching out more with genres- thank you to those who recommended some historical retellings in my last post, I found copies & will be reading them soon!! 🥰

Aside from this, this year was definitely something- it really forced me to prioritise mental and physical HEALTH above all & and if there’s something you’ve been meaning to do, just do it! Really don’t put it off!

So the last post of the year is for the last batch of artwork created for ~ “Tales from the Manor” ~ The rag-dolls Violet finds in the dolls house of each of the friends. (For the rest, you’ll have to read for yourself… 👀)

Writing this collection of short stories was definitely a highlight for me, and I’ve loved sharing the (true!) stories that inspired them! Thank you for those who have shown so much kindness & support and if you’d like to read “Takes from the Manor” and experience this cosy, spooky journey, the link to order is below: ❤️

See you in 2025! 🤩🤗
