✨ dark NARNIA x MY LADY JANE ⚔️

A missing faerie. A forbidden elixir. A whole lot of missteps.

One reluctant princess’s quest to right her wrongs.

She craved freedom. What she found could cost her everything.

#QuestPit #Q #A #F #RF
1-paragraph pitch for YIELD, a 100k adult romantic fantasy debut novel. Book comps for YIELD include Assistant to the Villain, Emily Wilde’s, One Dark Window, Nettle and Bone, the Cruel Prince. Media comps are My Lady Jane meets a dark, adult Narnia. YIELD will appeal to fans of: queer characters, a golden retriever MMC (with teeth), one “horse,” cozy AND dark, women’s wrongs, romantic subplot (but still spicy), found family, knife to throat, slow burn(s), and reluctant allies to lovers. A snippet from YIELD in which Thea, the main character and POV, threatens Brynn, her reluctant guide, with a knife to the throat.

When wanting to drown your ex after they break your heart is a normal feeling it’s also a normal reaction in Breaker Bay 💔
And when you’re a girl gang of sirens whose love language is violence…
It’s a little too normal 😏
