Why can't I read your stories on Kindle Vella anymore?
Amazon made the decision to close Kindle Vella in February 2025. :( Vella has been my home for the past 3+ years, and I'm heartbroken by this. After asking my Vella readers for feedback on how you'd like to continue reading Sammy's story, the overwhelming answer was as books! So, I'm focusing on getting Covert Hearts, Hot for Hostage, and the second book of The Duet Diaries ready for publishing. So far, Hot for Hostage has a pre-order link up, but the others are on the way! Stay tuned. :)
To my Vella readers, thank you so much for all of your support. Being an author was just a dream before, but you made it come true. <3
Is Hot for Hostage a standalone?
Yes, it is! But you might've noticed that I tend to get attached to my characters and never want to let them go. So, there are plenty of bonus scenes that keep up with Sadie, Davian, and Bear in the future. 🖤
When will your Kindle Vella stories be available in ebook/paperback?
Any concrete dates will be posted on my website and social media! If you don't see a date for the book you're waiting for, then one hasn't been set yet. There is just so much juggling with covers and editing and formatting, that I don't want to predict a date until I'm absolutely certain the book will be ready to go.
Will Covert Hearts be available on KU???
Yes! Now that Vella is closing, getting my stories ready for Kindle, KU, and paperback is my focus. 😅💖
... What is going on with your pickle popcorn obsession?
A wedding I went to had a "gourmet popcorn bar" and the bright green pickle popcorn just really stuck with me! If you've read The Duet Dilemma, you might've noticed that I gave Emma a lot of obsessions, especially around food and coffee. Sammy is still figuring herself out, but I couldn't resist her and the boys bonding over something a bit odd. (Seriously, if you haven't tried pickle popcorn, give it a shot and let me know if you like it!)
Are you abandoning The Duet Diaries???
NO! Absolutely not. I love Emma and her (future) guys. 💕 I have so much planned for them, it's actually a little ridiculous.
But I'm not a fast writer lol. I think you all know that. My original plan was to focus on The Duet Diaries and publish Covert Hearts on Kindle Vella on the side as a fun project when I got to it.
I just never counted on Covert Hearts blowing up in popularity. Never in my wildest dreams did I expect it to hit #1 on Vella (let alone stay there so long! SERIOUSLY? You guys are amazing.) So, my plans changed, and now Duet Diaries is the one I work on in my down time on the side (for now)... which means it's a slow process. As soon as I have updates, I'll post on my website, newsletter, and social media! I'm just sorry I can't juggle both RHs at once! 💕💕
