Cameron Darrow - Sapphic Fantasy and Mystery Author @cdarrowwrites.bsky.social · Nov 15
Hello, I write books where girls kiss and do magic. Many are based in alternate history, some are straight-up fantasy with dragons and such. Found family, happy endings, mystery, humor when I can manage it, sexy vampires and a talking fox. Sometimes all in the same book!

If a vampire WALKs in on you in the bath, what else can you do but smile and hope she goes away?

Or better yet, stays?

My historical paranormal mystery Death Has Golden Eyes is on sale for US $.99 (or local equivalent) until the 18th!

Cover of the novel death has golden eyes by cameron darrow over a background of a blurred-out version of the same cover. centered is the white text: “Are you decent?” Azalea asked after a quick rap.
“No,” Dizzy said.
“Good.” 
The candles could barely fight through enough steam to reach Dizzy, leaving the rest of the room one large shadow for Azalea to emerge from. She did so wearing a robe-ish suggestion as insubstantial as the vapor rising from the bathwater. Without a word, she perched herself on the rim of the tub at Dizzy’s feet in another effortless display of preternatural balance.
And confidence.
Doing her best to match it, Dizzy didn’t even raise her head to ask, “What makes you think you can just walk in here uninvited like that?”
Eyes that could see as easily in the dark as in the light did both. “You’re smiling.” below that is more white text #lesficfri for walk

From Hall of Mirrors

Being a stranger in a den of witches was never going to go well, even for a fellow witch. After a threat like that from someone with the power to do it? I'd jump, too.

Background of the blurred cover of the novel Hall of Mirrors by Cameron Darrow. Centered on top is the full cover. Below it is the black text excerpt: "If you threaten my sister again, I will burn you alive and compose music to your screams."
"You fear truth," Sveta said to the new witch. "You have lived on lies for so long, you fear it will kill you."
The stranger flicked her eyes between the two Russians, Katya's flames clearly visible in the depths of the witch's pupils.
"She's never been threatened by a witch before today, and doesn't know if you're lying," Sveta supplied.
A fireball shot forward to within inches of the stranger, making her jump backwards. 
"She's welcome to find out," Katya said. Below that is white text: #lesficfri for jump

#lesficfri for REMEMBER

I don't think the title counts, so I chose a follow-up from last time.

Having magic powers would make amnesia hard enough, but someone trying to kill you without knowing why? At least the magic came in handy...

Cover of the novel 'Remember, November' supermposed over a blurred-out version as a background. Below it is the black text: "Now that the immediate danger of a crazy person with a gun had passed, she was left with another danger: herself.
As much as she struggled to remember them, the details remained stubbornly fuzzy. It seemed like everything had happened extremely slowly, but it was still hard to recall exactly what it was that had happened. It wasn't amnesia this time, either.
The bullet stopped. The bullet stopped. Impossible. It was physically impossible. Bullets didn't stop for anything, especially not because someone simply wanted it to. If that was all it took, wars would not be the affairs they had grown to be." Followed by the white text: "#lesficfri for remember"

#lesficfri for SECRET

When you have amnesia, your own identity becomes a secret -- but only to you. And when you have magic powers you can't explain or control, uncovering it becomes even more important.

Cover of the novel 'Remember, November' superimposed over a blurred-out background of the same cover. Below it is the black text: "Why was it so hard to remember? It had been there! Just out of her grasp. She'd felt the tantalising edges of it brush her fingers when she'd strained for it, down in that hole in her mind. That inky, impenetrable, awful place had been this close to giving up its secrets. But like a frightened spider, it had retreated with shocking quickness to an even greater depth and barricaded itself in layers of despair that she didn't know she had the strength to push through.
November. 11. November 23rd. Pain from all three. A single set of clothing; the only clues from which to reassemble an entire life." Below it is the white text #lesficfri for secret

Cover of the novel 'Midnight Magic' over a background of snow with red flower petals. Below it is the black text: Aurelai gasped, both of her magelights winking out as Vimika's mouth closed on the hollow of her neck and worked gently upward to find her ear. Vimika took her time sliding the length of it along her cheek until she came to the pointed tip, taking it softly between her teeth. When she touched the tip of her tongue to the tip of Aurelai's ear, there was a snapping sound of magic arcing between them, faint but unmistakable. "I... didn't know... that could happen," Aurelai managed between breaths. "Wizard secret."

Cover of the novel 'Midnight Magic' by Cameron Darrow set on a background of a blurred version of the same cover. Below it is black text that reads: "The bright clink of metal, bare footsteps, the hiss of heat being applied to whatever was making the delicious smells wafting in the open door, and above it all, singing. Vimika's blood surged, the sound of that dusky voice raised in song filling her with memories of what it had been raised in the night before, and she curled in on herself involuntarily this time, her face suddenly as warm in open air as the rest of her was under the blankets. She stilled herself so she could listen. Aurelai sang like her birds, albeit ones that had only ever heard people sing in a tavern, leaving it gloriously off-key and belted with the raw enthusiasm of someone who didn't know any better. The same way she does certain other things, Vimika thought." Below that is another line of black text that says: "lesficfri for smell

If such ostentation was supposed to make an impression, it had succeeded, just perhaps not the one the planners had intended. The idea that the Eluterii had fashioned what was by Cantari standards an entire palace just for today made her want to spit as much as cry. They had so much wood it made them afraid of fire, while the Cantari had so little they couldn't afford to burn it, forcing both tribes to derive their heat and light from magic. Decadence and privation had led to the same result. How?" at the bottom is white text reading #lesficfri for SMELL
