Preorder Live!

That’s right. Changing Spaces is now up and available for preorder! This novella has been a while coming. I first started planning for it at the end of 2021, but of course, with competing deadlines, she got momentarily put on a shelf until the time was right. That time is now a little over a month away!

Unexpected changes are always difficult, but so is ignoring the delicious tension between Anisse and Star.

Changing Spaces is aΒ low-angst, small town, workplace lesbian romance. With the mess of deadlines and stress, I wanted to write something that felt good and would give you all that ‘AWWW’ feeling without a massive dose of angst. Perfect for the warm and fuzzies with a good sprinkling of spice.

Sapphic Spring Reads

I’ve been quiet lately after a whirlwind end to 2022, but there are some very good reasons for that (which will be revealed soon!). However, I still have my eyes on some great romance reads. This time, for those who need some sapphic books to spruce up your TBR for spring, I got youπŸ₯°

I hope everyone has been having an AMAZING holiday season. Christmas is here and I am full of love, cheer, and a bit of spiked cider (IYKYK). And along with that comes me finally pulling the trigger on something I told myself I would do months ago. I created a Patreon!

I’ve gotten so many emails and messages from readers not only curious about what happens when the book gets to “The End” but also about some favorite side characters and the stories they might have to tell. I, for one, LOVE getting to read bonus chapters and extended scenes from some of my favorite authors, and I am so happy I can now do the same for my own readers.

There are three tiers available with amazing benefits. Currently, tiers 1 and 2 are US only (I’m sorry!), but I am working to open that up for international readers because I want to be able to get my books in the hands of everyone.

Join me and get patron-exclusive bonus chapters, short stories, and see some behind the scenes of what projects I’m currently working on. I can’t wait to show you everything I have in store for 2023 and beyond!

Preorder TASTES OF HIM!

The final book in my Coffee Shops of Love series will soon be here!
TASTES OF HIM is out June 15!

  • Black Romance
  • M/M🌈
  • Best Friend’s sibling
  • Only one bed πŸ›
  • So much pining πŸ’•

Years of flirting.
Thousands of miles of distance.
One week alone together might send it all crashing down.

Sean Kincaid isn’t afraid of love. He wants it; is actively looking for it even. But his years-long flirtation with his best friend’s older brother, Rod, is nothing more than a little passing fun. Just because he told the guy to put a ring on it, doesn’t mean that’s what he really wants…right?

Roderick ‘Rod’ Davis has been not-so-secretly pining after Sean from afar for years. But now, he’s coming home, and with one last hurrah in place, maybe it’s the best time to come clean about his feelings. Surely their years-long flirtation was more than just for fun…right?

TASTES OF HIM is filled with sass, sprinkled with steam, and comes complete with its own HEA.

I am so excited for this final release. When I started CUPS OF YOU, I never imagined it would grow to a 3-book series and yet here we are! Sean and Rod had so many fans in book 2 that of course they had to have their own story. Will these two get their acts together? And just how much is too much pining? I guess you’ll have to read it and see!

Hello 2022!

2021 was a busy year filled with so much good and bad alike. This pandemic has definitely changed my life and yours as well I’m sure. It has been a learning curve settling into the new normal, but here’s to hoping we have all found our strides.
I had so many goals for 2021, many I happily achieved and some I’m excited to try for again. One thing I do know for sure, is that I could not have achieved half of what I did without your support. I have a lot planned for 2022 both personally and professionally.

The Coffee Shops of Love series is slowly coming to its end with a final book planned. I had so many comments about Sean and Rod and whether or not they would be getting their own book and I can happily say, THEY ARE! The love for this series means I am planning something special for the final book’s release so stay tuned for an upcoming announcement.

I also am going full steam ahead into the Dummond Family Drama series with two books planned for a 2022 release starting this summer. These siblings have some trials to go through that will challenge their bonds and everything they thought they knew about their family.

I am also part of a super secret group of authors working on some joint goodness planned for a 2022 Summer/Fall release. I am sitting on the edge of my seat waiting to be able to announce things.

All in all, I have 4 upcoming releases scheduled for 2022, one for each season (Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter) and maaaaaaybe a few novellas here and there.

I hope you will continue on this journey with me as I work hard to bring these characters to life in a way that leaves you with all the feels.

Happy 2022!
– Karmen
