Hi all, introduction time! I'm a witchy queer author with chronic pain who writes contemporary romance. I'm currently in the middle of the Pagans & Pop Stars series about a former boy band and their friends (and exs) all finding love.

There's still a couple of days left to grab the Underrated Bundle. 63 books for $38 is not a deal to sniff at.

Come and help these books move from "underrated" to just plain "rated"

A mockup of The First Sin by Cheyenne Brammah. In the sweeping expanse of the Årdrakin Empire, the people fight and die for honor as elite warriors of the galaxy. But long ago, a prophecy was spoken that presaged the apocalypse. Everyone knows and fears the truth: one day, the empire will fall. Tårik is a guard for small, independent Clan Tsinna. Instead of pondering the end of his civilization, Tårik’s greatest concern is maintaining his honor while escorting a group of impertinent dignitaries across the treacherous Barren Gale. When the Mother Goddess speaks a passage from the prophecy to him, he has the good sense to be frightened, but he doesn’t heed the significance of Her visit. Then disaster strikes, and Tårik is branded as an exile, leaving him with no home, no honor, and no future. Forced into a desperate struggle for survival, all Tårik can focus on is living just one more day until luck—or maybe fate—gives him the opportunity to join a new clan. But even this is fraught with danger and uncertainty, and it takes him to an inhospitable world far from the empire where survival seems all but impossible. Faced with new challenges, including trying to navigate first contact with the low-tech locals, Tårik believes the prophecy can’t reach him. Yet it continues to loom, signaling that his fate and the fate of the empire are irrevocably entwined.

Book cover set against space with colored glows behind, blue to the left, and pink to the right. A Demon to Save Me by H.S. Kallinger. Title letters are rendered in fire inside a blood circle, with a bloody pentagram drawn with a finger on a hardwood floor. Some blood is scattered around it. A pair of amber eyes with thick, black eyelashes are just visible on the floor above the circle. Rainbow circles fade in and out around the image. Author name is in pink, blue, and white in the lower right corner. In white lettering at the top is "Book One of the Found Humanity series"
