It is with great pleasure to announce that A Flare of Fire, book three in The Warwick Witches Series, will be released on July 31, 2026!

I’m not going to lie. I have never been more happy to announce a release date nor have I been more proud to have written this book. This one was a struggle to write. Not because of the story but because of numerous events in my own life which hindered me at every turn.

My daughter, my baby, graduating high school-Check

Getting all the necessary paperwork and whatnot done for her to go to school in the UK-Check

Traveling to the UK and staying for three weeks to get her settled-Check

Being engulfed in depression after coming home from the UK and trying to adjust to an empty nest-Check

Late perimenopause-Check

Tearing my outer lateral meniscus right after the new year and going through months of pain and recovery-Check and Check

Finally seeing the light in the Spring and getting my head out of my ass-Check

Rediscovering my love for writing and this story-Check

It has been a transformative twelve months. There were times I never thought I would write again. I thought I lost the ability and the drive. I had moments of self-doubt…self-loathing, but I feel like I found myself again. Sounds corny. I know. The truth is, I am not someone who is good with change. I like my world and I do not like it to be turned upside down. I tend to retreat when it happens so I can process things. My family says it’s because I am a control freak. It’s true. I’ll fly that flag but the older I get, the more I feel like I have to start rolling with the punches of life. I also am going to have to embrace this new normal and use this time to focus on me and what I love.

And that is writing.

Book four of The Warwick Witches has now been officially started, and I am just beyond excited to continue this story. I will reveal the title and book cover when A Flare of Fire has been released!

But…there might just be some other news coming out very soon. I have had something in the works for a bit and I cannot wait to share it with you all.

Stay tuned!
