Tainted Love: Lake Worth Legends

I just published my first book after a year of working on it. I'm still pretty excited to see it live.

It's the first book in a planned series called Tainted Love (I've started the second book, but it'll be a while before it's ready).

The story follows Claire, who's been feeling depressed and stuck, until a camping trip with friends at Lake Worth turns into something a lot stranger than she expected. After a chance encounter with local legend Goatman, curiousity turns into something deeper--and a lot more complicated than it should be.

It's a slow-burn, human FMC / non-human MMC story with a lot of yearning and "this probably shouldn't work, but we're doing it anyway" energy. Definitely more on the angsty side than fluffy.

Check out the link above if this sounds interesting. It's available on KU and Amazon buy to print.

Slight spoiler /tone warning:

>!if your'e looking for a traditional HEA or HFN, this probably isnt your thing. It leans more devastatingly bittersweet than happy ending.!<
