Cozy meets cryptid.
Cozy paranormal romance on the foggy Oregon coast, where humans and cryptids have lived openly together since the 1978 Disclosure Treaty.
Saltwick, Book One, is out now. Cape Herring follows on September 1.
Welcome to Hollow Tide
There’s a stretch of the Oregon coast where the fog comes in like a decision and the rain is less an event than a climate. Somewhere in it sits Hollow Tide: a working harbor town where a kraken can hold a contractor’s license, a selkie can farm oysters, and the neighbors simply get on with it, in the way of small towns.
The Hollow Tide Cryptid Cove series is a set of interconnected standalone romances set in that town. Open-door warmth, a guaranteed happily-ever-after, found family, and a different cryptid every time.
