Fiction
Romantasy

Wild Magic by Nateera Skye. Release date: December 21, 2025. Purchase paperback on Amazon. In Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, little known fantasy writer Ravyn Shaunessy is content to traipse about the boundless world of the imagination safe and cozied in her writing garret with her sweet, slightly mysterious muse-like cat and a little bit of chocolate.
But when a company interested in ancient mythologies buys out her publisher, she finds herself pushed into the outside world and partnered with a handsome, enigmatic new coworker, the French Canadian photographer Damien Le Sauvage. Together they must unravel mysteries from thousands of years ago, ones rooted in stories from cultures long lost to the march of modernity.
Others are watching, however, their intentions anything but friendly. As there are more than enough hints things are not what they seem, Ravyn may decide to walk away from it all…while she still can.

Dreamings by Nateera Skye. Upcoming release. A dream. An ancient land. A man she has yet to know. On the threshold of a world she has yet to understand. Ravyn’s journey continues, this time on dogsled, across a (mostly) frozen inland sea that takes her deeper than she ever imagined into the history of what today is called Michigan’s Upper Peninsula. What she finds reveal things about the peninsula’s present she never even thought to question.
Old-Fashioned Romance

Green Grow the Lilacs by Linda Cree. Upcoming release. The first novel in the Chippewa Ridge series, Green Grow the Lilacs explores the joys and heartbreaks through the eyes of the shy twenty-seven year old daughter of a small French-Canadian family forced to leave their farm in the Laurentians and relocate to an urban area near the Soo Locks. An old-fashioned romance, the novel celebrates family and a deep love for the land, laying a foundation for the rest of the series.
Sweet Country Romance

Cranberry Falls by Nateera Skye. Upcoming release. Nature photographer Natalie Reid has finally found independence…and she’s far from ready to relinquish it. Loving life as a single mom and nature photographer in the heart of Michigan’s beautiful Upper Peninsula, Natalie has no time for romance. Even when handsome local fishermen maneuver themselves into the picture. But will a run-in with wolves be just the thing for her change of heart? Probably not.
Trails of the Heart by Nateera Skye. Upcoming release. It seems only too soon since Jade’s friendly scheming finally produced results for two of her most favorite people in the world. But an animal rescue mission gone wrong leads Natalie to doubt her newly – and tentatively – chosen path just as Slade finds his position as a history teacher is under threat from those who question his unconventional teaching methods…and Native American content. Can the two of them pull it together before an old flame from the past disrupts their fragile beginnings?
