Captured by the last person he expected to become his enemy, Aodhan is faced with a choice: stay in prison and wonder what became of Sierra and his friends-or make a deal with the devil himself, which could change his path in life forever.

Blurb: Recent college graduate Sierra Lopez has no idea what she wants to do with her life. With a degree that’s useless on its own, Sierra decided to complete a one-year masters program at Trinity College in Dublin, Ireland. Alone in a new city, Sierra downloads Tinder, expecting to go on a few casual dates during her study of human aging and fragility.
But then she meets the mysterious and brooding Aodhan De Thuaidh, who doesn’t seem to be at home in Dublin either. When he’s 30 minutes late for their first date, however, Sierra writes him off as just another jerk, intending never to see him again.
Except Aodhan keeps showing up. First around campus, then at a bar, and during Sierra’s work hours at the campus library. He claims it’s just a chance they keep running into each other, which annoys Sierra to no end, but something about Aodhan just isn’t adding up…
Demure introduces readers to a magical world filled with complex relationships, LGBTQIA+ representation, and compelling emotional journeys. With themes of acceptance, trauma, and choice, Demure lays the foundation for the unforgettable adventure that continues in Bold.

Author Testimonial
“Working with Sarah was an absolute pleasure! I found myself looking forward to her weekly check-ins and her opinions, which helped make my romantasy book, Demure, the best it could be. Even more than that, she adhered to my tight timeline so that my book could still be published on time! I am so glad that I found her, and I look forward to working with her again in the future.”
Author Q and A
1. Why do you write?
Honestly, I don't know. I started writing when I was 7 and I never looked back.
2. What is your writing process?
Um I kind of get an idea and then just go? I work a full time job and am an author in my free time so I often end up writing during the evenings and weekends.
3. Who is your biggest inspiration?
I honestly can't say. Maybe just from my travels (mostly with work) I've seen a lot of amazing places.
4. What do you want your readers to know about your book?
My books often deal with difficult themes like evaluating mortality, sexuality, and choices which change lives. Familial trauma is often a common theme. But while my books are heavy, they are also funny. Dark comedy if you will.
5. What is coming next for you?
Resilient, a romantasy with a trans MMC is coming in August 2025! I have lots of signings coming up but none in Australia sadly.
