I am thrilled to reveal the cover for Forgotten Skye, my upcoming Scottish YA romantasy and the first book in The Ruined Skye Trilogy.

My vision for the series is that each book gets its own colour palette and aesthetic. As forests are a significant location in Forgotten Skye, I envisaged a green theme with lots of trees and a touch of silver mist.

Those elements have been beautifully incorporated into one ornate cover, thanks to the talent of Simply Defined Art.

Forgotten Skye is out this summer with Evernight Teen. Add to your TBR if you enjoy a moody Scottish setting, a strategic FMC and a MMC with a strong moral compass.

Spoiler: possibly.

Forgotten Skye isn’t a cosy romantasy read. Happy-ever-after is not in its vocabulary. And the ending is intended to feel more like a gut punch than a warm hug.

What you will get

• A dramatic island setting (with real-life places you can go and visit!)
• A strategic, relentlessly independent FMC
• An isolated, smart MMC
• Side characters with zero filter (Pep steals the show)
• Twists and turns galore (you won’t see what’s coming next)
• An ending that will rip your heart from your chest and stamp on it (you might need to stare at the wall for five minutes contemplating life)

Forgotten Skye is out THIS SUMMER

…and if you can’t wait for release day, then you don’t have to.

Ally yourselves with the Skyedivers, my loyal group of ARC readers – willing to dive headfirst into this dark world before everyone else.

⚔️ ARC READERS WANTED ⚔️

She wants to destroy his world.
He’s sent to destroy her.

Forgotten Skye, my YA dark romantasy, is available to ARC readers and reviewers.

Centuries after a radiation leak on the Isle of Skye wiped out thousands, the mutated survivors developed god-like powers. Led by power-hungry Queen Creyta, they’re determined to drive the few remaining humans to extinction.

Seventeen-year-old Vesper, one of the unmutated, is determined to go down fighting. Prince Hunter, the queen’s ridiculously handsome son, might just be the key to his mother’s undoing. But the closer Vesper gets to Hunter, the more she realises he’s just as trapped as she is. Now she’s torn between taking down Creyta and protecting the boy she’s grown dangerously close to.

One wrong move and she won’t just lose Hunter. She’ll lose everything.

Perfect for readers who love:

⚔️ enemies to allies to lovers
🧠 strategic FMCs
🖤 swoonworthy MMCs
💬 banter for days
🔥 high-stakes tension
✨ side characters who steal the show
👑 Hunger Games x Powerless vibes

If you like zero-spice romantasy with gut-punch endings, you may survive Forgotten Skye 👀

What do you need to do?

All you need to do is fill in the form above to apply. Successful reviewers will be contacted no later than 15 June.

If you’re approved for a free review copy, you’re asked to leave an honest review. That means tell it like it really is! If you hated Forgotten Skye, don’t hold back. Your reviews will help other readers make informed decisions – and help me improve my craft. (One of my favourite reviews for Venom and Blaze is a one-star that came from a reader who clearly understood the book and what I was trying to say – it just simply wasn’t for them. I actually finished reading their review with a beaming smile because they really got the characters!)

Again, please remember to check the trigger warnings. Dark things happen. Make sure you take care of yourself, first and foremost.

When do you need to do it by?

Applications cut off on 15 June, so make sure to fill in the form before then if you’re interested.

Ideally, reviews need to be in by 31 August as the book comes out this summer (release date TBC, so there’s no hard and fast review-by date).
