ABOUT LUNA
I write dark romance and dark romantasy filled with morally gray men, powerful women, dangerous love stories, and enough emotional damage to leave you staring at the wall afterward.Â
​
Outside of writing, I'm a wife, a mom, and a dog mom. I'm also a reader who is almost always in the middle of something dark, a little too dependent on coffee, and constantly obsessing over fictional men with more red flags than I have any business finding attractive.
​
Most days, I'm balancing real life, family, work, reading, writing, and whatever new idea my brain decides absolutely cannot wait until later. My debut novel, Ashes Beneath the Stolen Crown, releases December 29, 2026.


BOOKS FROM THE SHADOWS
Power is inherited. Loyalty is bought. Trust can get you killed.Â
​
Willow Hawthorne never wanted the legacy waiting for her. But when blood, secrets, and betrayal drag her back into a world she was never meant to survive, walking away no longer becomes an option.Â

Ashes Beneath the Stolen Crown
Releasing December 29, 2026
BENEATH THE ASHES
THE BLURB
Willow Hawthorne has spent seventeen years believing the fire that killed her parents was a tragedy. She was lied to. When the aunt who raised her is murdered, Willow returns to the estate she barely remembers and uncovers the truth buried beneath years of silence. Her family was assassinated. The Hawthornes once held one of five seats within the Hand, a powerful criminal network built on bloodlines, territory, and secrets worth killing for. And Willow is the last Hawthorne left. Her survival should have been impossible. Now that the Hand knows she exists, it may become temporary.
Kieran O’Brien was raised inside the same world that destroyed hers. Trained to protect his family. Shaped into a weapon. Loyal to a legacy soaked in blood. Willow should be nothing more than another threat to eliminate. Instead, she becomes the one person he cannot seem to let go.
As old alliances surface and enemies close in, Willow must decide what she is willing to become to survive the truth her family died protecting. She can run from the Hand. She can claim the power they stole from her. Or she can make every person responsible for the demise of the Hawthorne bloodline pay. But revenge always takes something in return. And when the ashes finally settle, will she still have Kieran by her side? Or will Willow lose herself long before she gets her revenge?
