New book in the works: The Night Chemist !

As the daughter of the wealthiest khan in the north, Aylin knew she could never be a real apothecary. She earned her degree anyway. Now she's a licensed chemist, engaged to her childhood sweetheart...and entertaining indecent thoughts about his children's caretaker.

Back in May 2025, I had a random dream about a love triangle between a princess, a widowed prince, and the sexy male nanny looking after the prince's children. I told a few friends about it, and they encouraged me to turn that random dream into a book. Many rewrites and edits later, now I'm querying a 109k-word adult romantasy novel rooted in Turkic mythology that makes use of my doctoral research into warrior women among steppe nomads (sorta) that looks very little like my original dream.

I put together a playlist that corresponds to the book to capture the vibes as the plot progresses. I refuse to use Spotify because its policies are horrendous for the actual *human* musicians on there, so instead I made the playlist in Apple Music. Which is only marginally better, but I do what I can. Also keep in mind...I'm a metalhead, so my definition of "vibes" might be a bit different than you expect for the average romantasy. But hey, there's a lot of Sleep Token.
