Pre-orders for The Becalmer are live!

Happy Monday! I hope you've had a wonderful weekend, whatever and however you celebrate. I'm keeping the party vibe going today because I'm delighted to announce that The Becalmer, my first traditionally published book, is now up for preorder!


Blurb:

Harica is gifted with the ability to defuse conflicts using her mind. When she is recruited to assist in resolving a war via an arranged marriage, she discovers that the reluctant bride-to-be has similar powers. Princess Jasmila doesn't use her powers for good and when Harica arrives to help with the marriage arrangements, she fights back and sends Harica into a coma.

It is through this comatose state that Harica discovers a mysterious liminal space populated by others who share her gift. In this new realm, she learns to do things she never believed possible, but soon things spiral out of control.

In the face of a terrifying and seemingly unstoppable adversary, Harica wrestles with the decision to come to terms with the dark side of her gift. Will she take ownership of it or turn her back on it forever?

Since signing the contract over a year ago, I feel like it's been a long road getting here but I'm grateful for the opportunity for a steady build-up. It feels a lot more real now and I'm excited for Harica to make her way into the world in just a few months. Have a great week!
