MIDDLE-GRADE FANTASY
I’m thrilled to be working on some magical and bewitching middle-grade fantasy stories. Think something that showcases the depth and mythology of Black Panther and the excitement and adventure of Amari and the Knight Brothers. Currently there are four solid ideas that are slowly coming along and I can’t wait to tell you more once I’ve made significant progress. As Middle Grade is a fairly new genre for me, I’m taking my time, learning as I go, and enjoying the process of writing.

YOUNG ADULT ROMANTASY
When I began writing my African-inspired YA Romantasy, I immediately fell in love with the characters, the story, and the setting. Of all my projects, this proved to be the book of my heart and for many reasons will forever be.
If you love an evocative and atmospheric fairy tale + mythology mash-up, a lush and enchanting kingdom, an academy setting complete with unique legends and myths, and a delicious romance to keep you turning the pages . . .
You’ll LOVE this story!

YOUNG ADULT ROMANTIC THRILLER
Allow me to introduce you to my ultimate challenge: a YA Contemporary Romantic Thriller set at a fictional elite university in London. Trying to carefully tread the line between a page-turning thriller and a gorgeous romance, keeping up the pace and tension, and ensuring they both run seamlessly side by side, has meant that this story has taken longer than I’d like to finish it. But I’m almost there. 75% done . . .
ADULT CONTEMPORARY ROMANCE
I’m excited to be writing some heart-warming and deeply moving Adult Contemporary Romances set in London. These stories are perfect for fans of Talia Hibbert who love compelling romance with emotional depth and diverse representation.
The first story is COMPLETE and I’m now working on the second story and hope to share more with you soon.
So if you love reading powerful and heart-felt romance, delicious chemistry, and the enduring power of real, indestructible love that transcends racial, status and societal expectations . . . please get in touch.
How it Started
I began writing in 2012 – yep, over a decade ago. And since then I’ve been writing and rewriting but not quite breaking through in the direction that I’d hoped for. But one day . . . fingers crossed.
How it’s going?
FABULOUS! says the hopeful me. . .

I get to connect with my younger self and write stories that my children will love and can be spoken of long after I'm gone."

“Chemistry. Romance. Love.
I love writing about love, not just romantic love, but love in all its forms because love never dies, love never tires, love never succumbs.”
