A graphic featuring the green cover of The Cadence of Crowns by R.V. Wilbur featuring a clock face, pine tree branches, and small snowflakes, with a heart shaped clover leaf in the center. The tropes include fantasy with slow burn romance, hidden identity, reluctant hero, lost royals, banter & flirting…while dancing, masked men, secret rebellion, ancient legend, and it is a stand alone with a series connecting epilogue. The book is inspired by The Nutcracker and is available now.

The graphic displays the tagline “she found herself” and all 3 covers of the Virtues Trilogy books (Flight, Fight, and Free) showing graphics that depict a journey to the top of a mountain and a veil being pulled back to reveal the sun. Tropes include morally grey, found family, lies and betrayal, unseen world, strong grief + mental health rep, emotional damage, high angst romance with two chili peppers, characters over 30 years old, prophecy/chosen one, light vs darkness, dystopian vibes, and a HEA (finally!!). The complete series is out now.

The Rebellion of Stars is available for preorder now ahead of its release date of 2.3.2026, and the cover is to be revealed soon. The tropes include epic Romantasy with spice, Anastasia meets Tristan and Isolde, tortured hero, loathing to lovers, last of his kind, Anya and Dimitri coded banter, dual POV, secret romance, ancient magic, and it can be read as a stand alone or connected to the series by reading the epilogue.

P.S. What if it’s The Nutcracker + Outlander + Merlin?
