I'm delighted to share that my YA romantasy A WISH SO DEADLY will be published in March 2026! 🍾

The biggest thanks in the world to my agent Nina Leon, editor Polly Lyall Grant, and wonderful Scholastic UK team for sharing my passion for this magical, swoonworthy story ❤️
When the book's trope is:

✨️He's the boy who ruined her life, but he's the only one who can keep her alive. ✨️

A Wish So Deadly is out 12th March 2026, with Scholastic UK! 💖

The only thing better than catching up with your agent over a picnic in the sun ☀️ is opening the email together containing the FINAL COVER of your debut novel!

It's absolutely gorgeous (not that I'm biased), and I can’t wait to hopefully share more soon...

11 months (minus one day because I forgot to post yesterday) until my little book is out in the world! ✨️

I'm excited, I'm nervous, and I'm honestly still trying to fine-tune my pitch 🫠

At least I've got 11 more months to work on it!

I can't believe this time last year, I was only starting to query the manuscript that quite literally changed my writing career ❤️

The real question is, should I or should I not order 48 stickers, 150 cards, and a tote bag with my book's character art on it 🤔
