Shout-out to beta readers H.L. Burke, Kat Heckenbach, Sophia Heotzler, Rachel Kennedy (The Story Eater), Anne Jones, and Hannah Keeler. You made revisions so much more work, but I’m so much happier for the better story that resulted.
Thanks to Uncommon Universes Press LLC for taking a chance on me.
And last, a shout-out to all the readers of Monsters, Misfits, and Mushy Stuff. Y’all keep me going with all the encouragement and quote love!
Ahoy! So glad you read this story! I had a ton of fun writing it. I’d love to hear what you have to say about Lawless: The Ironfire Legacy Book 1, so please throw down some thoughts in an Amazon review. And yes, there’s more coming! Keep an eye out next year for Priceless: An Ironfire Legacy Novella featuring Nula Thredsing, as well as Faithless: The Ironfire Legacy Book 2.
Also, check out Blood Mercy: Thicker Than Water, a supernatural suspense novella with a fresh take on vampires, a short/ancient/smart-aleck protagonist, and a dramatic scene of fried onion rings.
If fire elementals are more your thing, check out Hearts Ablaze, where a short-sighted archaeology student ends up engaged to a clueless fire elemental and undergoes a fiery transformation. Paranormal romance satire with a sweet core and a Happily-Ever-After.
