After over 6 years of work, I’m thrilled to share with you that I’m releasing my adult romantasy Cinderella retelling! It’s called TO LOVE A GRIMM. This is the first in a series called Fairy Tale Hearts, where each novel draws inspiration from the legendary storytellers themselves, including Jacob Grimm, Hans Christian Andersen, Gabrielle-Suzanne Barbot de Villeneuve, and others. To Love a Grimm will release on Nov. 11, 2025 in ebook and paperback. Hardcover special editions will be offered through a Kickstarter if we get funded. More on that soon.

I’ll be offering a preorder special if you get the paperback through your favorite indie bookstore, so be on the lookout for that too!

I am in love with the cover! Here it is!

Here is the book’s blurb:

For fans of Stephanie Garber’s Once Upon a Broken Heart and Brigid Kemmerer’s A Curse So Dark and Lonely, this swoony Cinderella romantasy will sweep you away to a world of fairytales and happily ever afters.

The prince of my heart, the hunter of my soul.

When Jacob Grimm’s beloved brother, Wilhelm, falls gravely ill, Jacob will do anything to save him—even strike a blood bargain with a cunning Enchantress. In exchange, the brothers become her Hunters, cursed to serve her dark will. Their task sends them on a quest to a kingdom where villagers whisper of men turning to wolves, nixies lurking in ponds, and the young disappearing into the Black Forest, trailing after the tune of a piper.

But upon arrival, Jacob realizes there are evil forces at work, more powerful than the brothers have encountered. Seeking help, Jacob joins an alliance with a nobleman’s daughter, the smart and beautiful Ella von Maier. Yet, she too holds dark secrets, and she’ll do anything to keep them hidden.

Swept into a world of court glamor and alluring magic, Jacob and Ella’s lives are inextricably intertwined as they work to save the kingdom and break his curse. But as truths begin to unfold, Ella wonders if she can trust this handsome stranger, or if he’s, in fact, her enemy.

As friendship blooms into love, their cursed fates force them to make impossible choices where fairy tales and love come at a treacherous cost.

To Love a Grimm is a standalone fantasy. If you crave forbidden romance, star-crossed lovers, protective heroes with hidden scars, and a heroine who must choose between duty and her heart, you’ll be enchanted by this thrilling tale that ends in a happily ever after.
