About Pledge

Gabriel "Gabe" Hoffstet was just another trust-fund kid, drowning his sorrows in late-night parties after the tragic loss of his parents. But his path takes a sharp twist when Olympio, the immortal demon prince of Sefaera, enters his world to find his eternal soulmate. With a sparkling purple bond as his guide, Olympio joins the top fraternity at Columbia University, right next to Gabe.

As Gabe is haunted by his oddly possessive fraternity brother, "Ollie," his eyes wander to another boy that Olympio hates. The prince grows desperate and impulsively whisks Gabriel away to Sefaera to remove any competitors for Gabriel's affection.

In a world of magic and power, Gabe must grapple with a resentful ex-lover of Olympio's and the looming responsibility of becoming Sefaera's Justice. On top of that, he's faced with a public Consummation ceremony that will solidify his responsibility to a world and a man he barely knows.

Assassination attempts draw them together, and soon Gabriel finds that he cannot stay away from the prince with the soulmate bond working its ever seductive magic.

Now Gabriel is faced with the choice of whether to surrender to the allure of another world and the charms of a tempestuous prince, or risk it all, challenging fate and leaving a kingdom in jeopardy.

About Dominion of Magic:

From the brilliant trio that brought you Pledge comes a whole new kind of story years in the making.

Introducing Dominion of Magic --- an occult, dark fantasy, romance where the heroines save themselves.

The Wheel Turns On...

With it, a dark prophecy that sends Lysette, Julian, and Beatrice on a chilling journey from their grand mansion in the Outer Banks, NC, to the infamous sites of witch hunts throughout history.

As the leader of her coven, Lysette, her brother Julian, and Beatrice, entwined by past love and present duty, must outmaneuver Lysette's ex-husband, Eiren Connolly. Once a beloved member of their circle, Eiren has now embraced dark magic, leading a malevolent coven in a ruthless hunt for a powerful relic. Their quest leads them to the haunted streets of Canterbury, England, the eerie shadows of Triora, Italy, the mystical lands of Okinawa, Japan, and finally, to Salem, MA, where Beatrice's courage is tested as never before.

With each step, they draw closer to the relic, but Eiren's dark influence grows stronger. In a race against time, where historical horrors blend with their own fears, will they secure the relic and ensure the safety of all witches, or will Eiren's shadow engulf them all? Dive into this dark romantic adventure where history's whispers and love's resilience are put to the ultimate test.

About Eleanor Rose:

Eleanor’s literary journey began with her debut fantasy novel, “Pledge,” which was released on October 3rd and met with widespread acclaim. The book marked the beginning of an enchanting series following the adventures of Gabe and Ollie, characters who have resonated deeply with readers. The anticipation for the continuation of their journey is palpable, as Eleanor has already hinted at plans for the next installment.

Beyond her writing, Eleanor is an enthusiastic traveler, with a particular fondness for exploring the diverse cultures and landscapes of Europe. These travels serve as a wellspring of inspiration for her writing, enriching her narratives with vivid descriptions and diverse perspectives.

When not traversing continents, Eleanor finds solace and creativity in her cozy casita nestled in the Southwest. This tranquil haven is where she weaves her spellbinding tales, often accompanied by the quiet company of her beloved cats. Her affection for these feline companions is not just limited to her personal life; it also finds expression in her writing, where cats often play significant roles.

Eleanor Rose’s unique blend of passionate advocacy, rich storytelling, and a life filled with adventure and warmth makes her a distinct and cherished voice in the world of fantasy literature.

About August Oliver:

August Oliver (Formerly St. Clare) has carved a niche for himself in the literary world by crafting stories that embrace classic tropes with queer characters, ensuring they are represented authentically without being fetishized. His profound love for fantasy and paranormal genres has been a significant source of inspiration for his diverse and compelling characters.

In addition to his personal writing endeavors, August has made a name for himself as a bestselling ghostwriter and editor for Finch Benson. His expertise and creativity have contributed significantly to the literary world, both in the shadows and in the spotlight.

August's literary portfolio has recently expanded with the successful release of four books in the paranormal romance series "Millionaire Monster Daddies." The series, which includes titles such as 'Cassin', 'Delilah', 'Kyne', and 'Rayze', has garnered attention for its unique blend of paranormal elements and romantic narratives, further establishing August as a versatile and talented author.

When he's not immersed in the world of writing, August enjoys spending quality time with his partner, Chase. Together, they explore various interests, including traveling to new destinations, indulging in video games, and experiencing the excitement of live concerts.

About Chase St. Clare (will not be present at the Event):

Chase Tyler Kyle St. Clare stands out as a multifaceted creative force, expertly merging his skills as a photographer and a ghostwriter for the renowned Finch Benson. His artistic vision, deeply influenced by the complexities of identity and celebrity, often finds expression in his contemplations about being or being with pop icon Troye Sivan. Beyond his professional pursuits, Chase's passion for virtual worlds is evident in the hours he dedicates to The Sims, where he skillfully crafts and controls digital realms with the same artistic touch he applies to his real-world creations.

A significant highlight in his career is the release of his debut novel, "Snowed in with the Boss," a gay holiday romance that underlines his talent for weaving emotive and engaging narratives. This publication signifies his transition from the background role of ghostwriting to the forefront of authorship.

Building on this success, Chase's sports romance "Fraternal Figures," the first book in the "Gay for Gamma" series, has already captivated an audience. Garnering rave reviews even before its release, this novel promises to further solidify his reputation as an author capable of exploring complex themes with depth and sensitivity.

In his personal life, Chase, who is openly bisexual, shares his journey with his partner, author August Oliver. Their relationship, steeped in mutual respect and creative synergy, is a testament to their shared dedication to literature and the arts.
