🧡 I guess I'm a lesbian

🍷 A drinking contest with the gf's ex
😴 Dream intrusions
🔮 A good witch
🐍 A bad witch
⚔️ Two amazons too many
👤 So many lies

Hello, y'all! I'm Addy & I'm a queer author 🌈🫶

My books:
🏴‍☠️ The Elysium Proposal - F/Enby Pirate Adventure Romantasy
💞 Where We Converge - M/M Contemporary Paranormal Romantasy in modern day Chicago
💻 CyberSnow - Sapphic, Trans, Cyberpunk retelling of Snow White

books2read.com/ap/xXJm2G/AE...
Bianca Nieve, only daughter and heiress to the Nieve fortune, finds herself on the wrong side of the law. Taja Soliño, a hardware tech barely scraping by, finds herself helping a member of the family known for oppressing the city for their own gain. Together, they might just be able to free themselves and the city of New Velles. CyberSnow by A.E. Bross coming March 31, 2026. Preorder Now! Background of a cracked wall with a vine growing up the sides. Light text reads, "All Kyle wants to do is propose to the love of her life. Unfortunately, it seems that toxic family, a hopeless voyage, & the search for the Well of Eternal Life all have different ideas for how Kyle should be spending her time." The Elysium Proposal "Because nothing ever goes as planned..." Image of the Chicago cityscape in the distance, icy Lake Michigan in the forefront. Text over top reads: "Every so often, life gives us a shot at redemption. When Darius Adair is sent to help a stranger in the dead of night, he never expects that man to be a time traveler who threw himself back in order to stop a threat so severe, it endangered the world as they knew it. He also didn't expect to catch feelings for him." Features the cover from Where We Converge by A.E. Bross.

“Well, we were just kids, weren’t we? I picked it up from my ex-husband, may he rot in hell.” “Divorced then. Or widowed?” “Divorced, though I had a few recipes I thought about slipping into his wine. Hard to get away with that when you’re a licensed potionworker, though.” Where had this dark humor been when they were kids? “Focusing on my kids now, and the shop. You? Rumor was that you died alongside your…” she kindly trailed off, though Tyre still felt that old loss tugging at her soul. “It’s a long story,” Tyre said. “Went out to the outer provinces. Drank a lot. Barely got by, most of the time.” Genuine hurt crossed Louise’s face. “I’m sorry.” “It’s fine. Turns out life is messier than I was told it would be.” “Tell me about it.” Luise’s smile was bittersweet. Something told Tyre that they could commiserate all night over a good bottle of wine.
