Why I Hated You - ARCs & Release Date!

BCWS Banner.png

Why I Hated You So Much: The Falling of an Angel comes out July 22nd!

ARCs are now available. There are no special requirements, so please feel free to sign up!

As a special bonus, here’s an early look at some character I made for Remiel and Malcifer! I may still make some changes, but look at my boys. 🥹

An illustration in a simple cell-shaded style. The two characters are sitting next to each other, shown from the elbow up. On the left is Remiel, with very pale skin (yellow/green undertones) and white iridescent hair (white with blue undertones and hints of pink). He casually holds a cigarette in his hand and wears a white shirt. Sitting next to him is Malcifer, a demon with dark red skin. He has slender horns and short black hair swept back. He takes a pull from a cigarette and wears a leather jacket.
Remiel: “This tastes like shit.” Malcifer: “Nobody’s making you try it.”

I hope you love them as much as I do! 💕

Why I Hated You So Much is a second chance enemies to lovers MM fallen angel x demon paranormal romance novella (22k words). Their main romance is a novelette (11k words) and then there are two spicy extended epilogues (5k & 6k words).

If all goes as planned, paperbacks will be available on launch!

A note on ARCs

If you’re new, here’s a quick rundown on how I approach ARCs (Advance Review Copies).

  • Everything is managed through BookSprout to make it easy for me and reviewers. All you need is a free account!

  • There are no special requirements—you don’t need a certain number of followers or even to have a social media account!

  • Reviews are totally voluntary. If you’d rather not review or you need more time, there’s no downside unless you’re a frequent BookSprout reviewer. (Accounts can only have so many pending reviews at a time.)

  • Your honest review helps other readers decide if this book is the right fit for them :)

  • It’s not at all expected, but if you happen to notice a typo or a formatting error, feel free to mention it in the private feedback box in BookSprout.

Other goodies

A Thorn’s Rose, a sapphic short story anthology, releases July 8th! It’ll be available on Amazon on release day, and you can preorder from other stores now.

It features Hypha’s Hoard, by yours truly, an insta-lust FF romance short story (10k words) about how a human woman who just broke off her engagement becomes a dragon-woman’s “pet”. ;)

This graphic features quotes from the Hypha's Hoard story. The background is red silk, and there's a translucent silhouette of a dragon in the center. From top to bottom, the quotes are: "Don't hide that pretty drool from me. Let me see how bad you want it." "Shhh... Little pets don't need words." "This only happens one way. You on your knees and doing exactly as I say." "Oh, that's a good girl... just like that, sweet thing... Harder--" "I will not stop if you struggle. I will not stop if you beg or plead. You will pick a word. That will be the only word that makes me stop."
Hypha is 🥵

If you caught the Small Town, Big Love anthology, you’ll be excited to hear that Kenzie James and Tilly Bramley have stories in this anthology as well!

Even if you usually read/order on Kindle/Amazon, it’s a good time to learn how to send Smashwords eBooks to your eReader because…

All previously released eBooks are 50% off in July on Smashwords!

This sale only applies to Smashwords, and it’s part of their annual Summer/Winter sale. The sale runs for all of July. If you have any of my books on your TBR, it’s a great time to grab them!

Stay tasty,

💕 Beth/Cookie
