It's that time again!
(Do I start all my blog posts that way? I think I do. Oops.)
Oh well. It is once again time for a cover reveal, and, you guys, I think this might be my favourite cover of all of my books. It is so beautiful. I had the idea for it ages ago--there's a major clue to the plot on it (squint and you might catch it), and I am just so in love with how my cover designers brought it to life!
Isn't it stunning?
REVOLUTION is crash landing at Amazon on the 1st June. It's a pretty tight timeline, not going to lie, but don't worry, the book is done and in editing. I can't wait for you to read it. This one is jam-packed with action and romance, and it was so much fun to write. It has some of my favourite moments in the series so far. Also, the end is *chef's kiss*. Trust me. I just wrote it.
*innocent smile*
If you don't want any spoilers for book one, I recommend you don't read the blurb. If you've already finished book one and are hankering for more, I've thrown the blurb and links in at the bottom of the page.
See you soon,
Margot
P.S. Don't they look so pretty together?
REVOLUTION
Freedom comes at a price. When the time comes, will I be able to pay it?
Danger is stirring in Bale Rocks.
Maddock’s arrival seems to have triggered something. Light is being shone into the cracks of our society, and more skeletons are being exposed than I could possibly have imagined.
Percival and the Aces have spies everywhere.
The mayor seems to be collaborating with notorious slave traders the Black Hands.
The Iron Fists’ grip on power is slipping with every day that goes by.
As I battle to keep myself and my sister safe, the mistakes begin piling up. It seems like if I make one wrong move, my whole life will go up in flames. The answer lies in convincing Bas of the secrets I’ve uncovered, but after what I’ve put him through, I don’t know if he will ever trust me again.
As things come to a head, can I find a path to preserve the peace in my town and keep my family safe, or will the price of my freedom spell disaster for the people I care about?

REVOLUTION is book two in a four-book slow burn dark romance series. It cannot be read as a standalone. The series contains adult language, intense sexual situations (including references to non- and dubious consent), and violence in keeping with the post-apocalyptic setting. It is not intended for readers under the age of 18. The series ends with a happy ending.
It's here!
I've kept super quiet about this project, because honestly? I was pretty nervous. This was one of those that I almost scrapped several times. Will people like it? Will they read it? Will my urban fantasy audience read sci-fi?
Guess we're gonna find out.
I am so excited to announce that my adult sci-fi debut, RISE, will be hitting Amazon on the 26th January 2023. There's no preorder just yet, but it'll be going live in December.
In the mean time, here's the blurb:
*
I don’t like new people. They come into our town and don’t know the rules. They get up in our business. They mess things up.
That’s why when James Maddock walks into my bar, I’m suspicious. He might act like a nice guy, but for sure he spells trouble.
And that’s the last thing I need just when I’ve got my life on track.
All I want is to keep my sister safe, but suddenly, my tentative peace with the local gang, the Iron Fists, is exploding. People I thought I could trust are turning out to be enemies in disguise, and people I was certain were dangerous seem to want me on their team. I don’t know where to turn. I don’t know who is a friend and who a foe.
What I do know is this: when the dust settles, the only person I can rely on to have my back… is me.
*
I've had RISE knocking around in my head for a really long time, so it's really exciting to see it finally come to life. I can't wait for you to meet the main character, Harley, and follow her through all her shenanigans in a post-apocalyptic small town.
The cover was designed by Miblart. They did a seriously fantastic job on it. I couldn't be more pleased.
I'll be updating when the pre-order goes live. That's all for now!
Margot
You guysssss, it's hereeeeee!
I am honestly so excited to make this announcment. I've been hinting at it so much, and basically sitting there like an overexcited five-year-old waiting for sweets. I'm dying to talk about this novel, and I haven't been able to, and it is the most unique kind of torture to be the author and not be able to talk about your book because no one's read it yet and SPOILERS.
Lots and lots of spoilers.
I mean, I'm not rubbing my hands together and laughing evilly right now, but feel free to picture me that way if you want...
Anyway, today is the day that I finally get to share the first tidbit with you, the first (visible) step in a journey which began last July, and will culminate this coming July.
That's right, my new novel WICKED BLOOD will be published on 19 JULY 2022. Save the date!
Aaaaand here is the most beautiful, gorgeous, amazing cover I have EVER seen. I am honestly blown away by this cover design by Ebook Launch. They are super. They did Wicked Magic's cover, too, and I swear every cover they do is better than the last one.
Without further ado:
Isn't it stunning?
I actually first drafted Wicked Blood back in early 2020, but most of that got scrapped along the way. After multiple rewrites, I am incredibly proud to present to you the standalone sequel to Wicked Magic. That's right--if you haven't read book one, don't worry. Both books are standalones, as will be book three. Wicked Blood is Cynthia's story, following her journey to Berlin after graduating school, one and a half years after the events of Wicked Magic. She wants a bit of a holiday, a break from her overprotective mother, and maybe to start understanding who shifters are and what their place in the world is... but of course, she gets so much more than that. There's romance, danger, politics, and lots of bodies. Seriously, this book is chock full of bodies, not going to lie, I feel no guilt over this situation.
I can't wait for you to read it. Unfortunately, I have to, because I'm a mean girl and I set the launch date in July. Whatever will we do to tide ourselves over?
Well, I'm going to be writing the next book. You can go read the first one. It's available on Kindle Unlimited, and I promise you, it's worth it.
See you next month,
Margot x
