Hi there, I've been sitting on this for SO LONG, and I am barely holding it together. Today is the day I finally get to show you the cover for The Forbidden Fae. Behold! Isn't she stunning? I genuinely cannot believe this book is almost in your hands. Here's what's waiting for you inside: Half fae. Half caster. Traitor to both. Eden Hale has spent seventeen years hiding. Desperate to stay in the caster realm with the only family she has left, the defiant half fae conceals her true bloodline with an illegal glamour. But when she’s caught defending herself with forbidden magic, she faces a terrifying ultimatum: infiltrate the fae domain as a spy or condemn herself and her beloved aunt to life in prison. Determined to protect the woman who raised her, Eden accepts the mission to uncover the fae’s most guarded secrets. Yet inside the dying land she expected to hate, she begins to question everything she was taught. And the longer she spends with the surprisingly noble fae warrior assigned to watch her every move, the more she struggles to remember which side she’s supposed to betray. Will Eden complete the mission and destroy the realm she’s starting to fight for—or protect it and lose the only person who knew the truth and loved her anyway? If you've ever felt caught between two worlds, between who you're supposed to be and who you're becoming, this one's for you. I poured everything into this book (including a piece of myself I was surprised found its way onto the page), and I can't wait for you to read it. The Forbidden Fae releases on June 19th, and it's available to preorder right now!
Okay. I need to go lie down. June 19th cannot come fast enough. Talk soon, P.S. Preorders make a huge difference for indie authors! They help with rankings, visibility, and getting Eden's story in front of more readers. If you're even a little curious, grabbing it now means the world to me. 💚 [Preorder here] Catch up on all my books: The Souls Untethered Saga The Souls Untethered Saga: The Complete Series Rift in the Realms: Cursebringer Follow me on Instagram ➜ @kj_mcpike Follow me on TikTok ➜ @kj_mcpike |

Hi there, This isn’t an easy email to write, but it’s an honest one. I wrote a short story a while back, and it’s the most personal thing I’ve ever shared. It’s not part of a series, and it doesn’t follow a grand magical quest.But there is magic in it… a quieter kind. The kind that aches. It was inspired by the loss of my sister. In September of 2000, my older sister passed away suddenly and unexpectedly. Over the years, I’ve processed a lot of grief through writing—journaling, poetry, even...
Hi there, It’s been a minute! Or, depending on which realm you were counting from, possibly a century. But fear not: I haven’t been lost wandering the astral plane or trapped in a fae time loop (well, not entirely). Just quietly brewing stories, plotting twists, and occasionally remembering what day it is. If you’re still here, you’re officially part of the Inner Circle of Patience, and I’m thrilled to reconnect! If you’ve been wondering what I’ve been up to, here’s the scoop: I’ve been deep...
