It’s release day for Teach Me to Fly!

After 9 months (nearly 10) of writing Teach Me to Fly, it’s finally available for purchase. If you’re a dark romance reader and want to jump into the dark ballet world of Angelique and Reign, you can purchase your copy here!

ABOUT THE BOOK

She came home to escape her demons.
He’s never stopped feeding his.
A match made in...ruin?

ANGELIQUE
Trauma always leaves a mark, and mine is buried deep beneath scar tissue and muscle memory. I fled New York to escape the ballet world that broke me—and the man who ruined everything—swearing I’d never dance again.
But Imperium isn’t New York. They’re here to challenge the rules, starting with a darker, grittier Swan Lake retelling with an Odile who finds her own redemption.
I’m partnered with the boy I once knew…except Reign Harrington isn’t a boy anymore. Now he’s a man filled with quiet rage, and too many secrets.
And somehow, he sees straight through my façade.
As we dance a story too close to my own, I find myself coming undone all over again. Because healing isn’t linear, and surviving might not be enough.

REIGN
I was raised to lead Imperium. To dance until my body breaks, and to carry a legacy I never asked for. I dance because it’s expected but I play the piano because it’s the only way I know how to breathe.
When I play, I see her. Always her. The girl who once kissed me like I was someone worth staying for. I’ve composed entire symphonies just to survive missing her.
And now she’s back.
Angelique Sinclair—too fragile to touch,and too broken to stay.
Watching her dance feels like breathing for the first time in years, so I make it non-negotiable: I’ll dance Swan Lake, but only if she lets me stay in the guesthouse with her.
Close enough to stop her from disappearing.
Close enough to teach her to fly.

LIFE UPDATE

This past weekend, Mr. Headley and I dropped off our kiddos at their auntie’s house for a cousin sleepover, and we road-tripped three hours to Edmonton to watch The Weeknd concert (Mr. Headley’s fave artist). I think it’s safe to say, despite the rain, I’m officially entering my concert era, and now need to squeeze in a few other artists before the year ends.

We had so much fun and somehow my little author brain got inspo for a future musician romance so 😉 something to look forward to hahaha!

READ THIS BOOK

He offered me a crazy deal I couldn’t refuse. Even if I knew I made it with the devil within him.

Antonio
All I wanted was a nanny, until she walked in and breathed a need into me. I craved her as my wife even if it was only a marriage of convenience. I would make sure she would never leave me even if I had to tie her to my bed. As long as she stayed with me.

Divya
I went to him to fulfil my financial needs. I didn’t know he would disrupt my world. Then I discovered the darkness within him and knew he wasn’t the type to walk the moral line. Yet, I stood and watched… even as he burned me.

Can Divya forgive Antonio’s secrets and accept him, even though his darkness is far greater than any of her nightmares?

Contemporary sports romance author Britney Bell brings you a binge worthy short tale featuring a Texas soccer player and a sexy book-loving Italian.

My brother’s best friend… He should be off limits. Right?

Blaze is my brother’s best friend and teammate, playing professional soccer in Italy. One heated, passionate kiss makes me question whether it matters. When we have to spend Christmas weekend together in the romantic city of Venice, Italy, and at the most romantic time of year, can we forget that the kiss ever happened?

One-click now to find out if he’s as good as her dreams... or will he be a dud in the sack?

I’m just the new assistant on set… but Hollywood’s hottest movie star has his sights set on me.

I swear I didn’t know the man from my meet cute was actually James Everett. The makeup department managed to make him unrecognizable when he swept me off my feet. He’s smart, funny and now that I know his true identity, he’s also way out of my league.

James is determined to prove me wrong, and after getting dumped by both my ex and my acting agent, I desperately want to believe that our relationship has a shot.

But the film studio has other plans for James. Ones that involve him fake dating his new costar.

Starstruck is a spicy celebrity romcom with a happily-ever-after. It is the first book in the Starlight Studios Series, and can be read as a standalone.

Fans of early 2000's romcoms will love Starstruck!
