✨ AUTHOR ANNOUNCEMENT ✨

For the beautifully broken 🖤📖

We’re excited to welcome USA Today bestselling author Patricia D. Eddy to Lore & Luster 2027!

Patricia writes romance for the beautifully broken, bringing damaged heroes and heroines together to find their happily ever afters. Whether she’s writing military romance, paranormal romance, or B**M romance, her stories are filled with unforgettable characters, emotional depth, and enough chemistry to set the pages on fire.

A Tacoma local, Patricia shares her home with her husband and a very spoiled collection of cats. When she’s not writing, she’s likely fueled by coffee, wine, and a rewatch of Doctor Who.

Her award-winning Away From Keyboard series holds a special place in her heart, marking the moment she realized the characters in her head were telling their own stories and she was simply lucky enough to write them down.

We’re thrilled to welcome Patricia to Lore & Luster and celebrate an author whose stories prove that even the most broken hearts deserve a happy ending. ✨

✨ AUTHOR ANNOUNCEMENT ✨

We’re excited to welcome back for Year 2 of Lore & Luster 📚✨

Jaime writes fantasy romance featuring competent heroines of color, secondary-world settings with modern touches, and plenty of spice. There’s usually angst involved, but it always comes with a happy ending.

A Korean American transracial adoptee, Jaime lives in the Pacific Northwest with her husband and two cats. When she isn’t writing, she’s likely knitting, spinning yarn (the literal kind), collecting notebooks, admiring fountain pens, or attempting to convince her garden to cooperate.

We’re thrilled to have her joining us in Tacoma and can’t wait for readers to discover her work.

✨ AUTHOR ANNOUNCEMENT ✨

For the readers who always end up rooting for the villain... this one’s for you 🖤🌙
We’re excited to welcome back to Lore & Luster for 2027!

D. Kathleen writes dark romantic fantasy for the hopeless romantic, blending high fantasy, morally gray characters, dangerous magic, and the kind of romance that makes questionable decisions seem completely reasonable. Her stories are inspired by a lifelong love of mythical beasts, epic fantasy, and villains who may be far more compelling than the hero.

Drawing inspiration from stories like Labyrinth, Beauty and the Beast, and classic fantasy adventures, her books embrace the darkness while never losing sight of the romance at the heart of the tale.

If your favorite characters come with red flags, tragic backstories, and entirely too much charisma, you’ll want to stop by her table. ✨
