Writing Quinn was therapy.
Writing Mav was chaos.
Putting them in a room together? Catastrophic chemistry.
I wrote A Fortnight to Forever for readers who love:
β tragic romance
β lyrical prose
β slow burn that scorches
β found family, music, and magic
A romantic fantasy full of lyrical longing, sharp banter, and soul-deep devotion, A Fortnight to Forever is for readers who know love is the truest form of magic and the cruelest kind of countdown.

Quinn: looks like a cinnamon roll, is a cinnamon roll
Mav: looks like he could kill you, is a cinnamon roll
Thistle: looks like a cinnamon roll, could kill you
Edric: looks like he could kill you, will kill you
Quinn & Mavβs dynamic:
β΄οΈ reluctant allies
β΄οΈ he falls first (and HARD)
β΄οΈ they are both flirts, but he's more obvious
Meet them in A Fortnight to Forever on December 9th.
