Hello, my wonderful reading family! I’ve been counting down the days to share these big, BIG updates with you—so let’s get right to it.

1) Pre-Order Scarlet Birthright Books Now!
Yes, you read that correctly. The presale for my new novel, Scarlet Birthright, is officially here. It feels surreal and so exciting to watch this project—born from the little snippet I wrote years ago—finally make its way into the world. Many of you have been with me since my first collection, Scarlet Yearnings, cheering me on as those short stories grew into a full-length novel. Thank you for believing in me, sending messages, and championing this book’s release.
What to expect:
A sweeping, intergenerational tale set in Trinidad and the U.S.
Themes of family, hidden truths, and the love that binds us across oceans.
Glossary of vibrant Trinidadian expressions (so you’ll never be lost, even when my characters get really passionate!).
Head to my site, local library, or favorite online retailer and reserve your copy. Trust me—these pages burst with music, color, and a touch of island magic.
2) Pre-Order Scarlet Birthright Audiobook Now!
Drumroll, please! For all my audiobook lovers who love experiencing stories through the spoken word, the Scarlet Birthright Audiobook Presale is also live. We teamed up with two amazing voice actors (with the perfect sing-song lilt that matches the story’s Caribbean roots), so every nuance of the characters’ voices truly shines.
Slight confession: The first time I heard the narrator read Granny’s lines—complete with the righteous scolding and the fierce, protective love—I got chills. I’m so excited for you to hear it.
This audiobook will be a treat if you like to listen on your commute or during your evening wind-down.
