A new Celtic romantasy series for young adults.
THE KING’S SHILLING – Madigan’s Leap Book 1
Launches on 1 September 2025
Magic, folklore and history entwine in this wholesome tale of love, loss, and destiny, creating an enchanting journey, perfect for young adult readers.
In the late 18th century, the Delacey family—once prosperous landowners—live on the rugged coast of an alternative Ireland, in the village of Allanwell. Tragedy strikes, and they are plunged into poverty.
Amidst the turmoil, Rose, the youngest of the four Delacey daughters, is haunted by dreams of a marvelously handsome youth. Desperate to know whether he really exists, Rose seeks the aid of a local wise woman, who casts a spell to reveal the truth. The spell is perilous – will Rose live to encounter the man from her visions, or is it all an illusion? Will she find love – and if so, how long may happiness last?
For a Royal Navy press-gang is raiding up and down the coast, seizing young men to fight in the war against France. No able-bodied fellow is safe from their clutches. What will this mean for the villagers of Allanwell, for the Delaceys, and for Rose and the lover she sees only in dreams?
As rumours of war grow louder, Rose must decide whether to hold onto hope or forge a new path forward . . .

Free sample of humorous sci-fi!
Imagine if “The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy” ran off with a Mills & Boon paperback, detoured through Discworld, picked up a battered Lonely Planet from 1998, and tuned in to The Spice Girls on the way.
Cyberchicks in Love is a gleefully chaotic send-up of fanfic, chick lit, travel writing, and vintage sci-fi—all wrapped in one unpredictable ride. A gang of glamorous young women, each fixated on the same heartthrob actor, plunge into a surreal chase through virtual worlds, airport lounges, and every romantic trope you’ve ever raised an eyebrow at.
The result is a smart, offbeat comedy packed with sideways jabs at celebrity culture, fandom, and the genre shelves themselves. It’s quick-witted, unrepentantly absurd, and full of twists you absolutely didn’t see coming.
If you like your fiction fast, funny, and unapologetically weird, this might just be your next favourite cult read.
