Lovelies,
Are you taking care of yourselves? I hope you are. This spring is all about allowing what we tilled over in the fall to become what we seed into intention for the year to come indeed. I’ve been taking care of me in the meantime… how about you?

A Merna Annals Side Quest 1: The Winged Ones
The Winged Ones: A Short Story Collection of Humorous Adventures (A Merna Annals Side Quest)
Enjoy this side quest to Jenna O’Malley’s dark epic paranormal romantasy series, The Merna Annals, where…
The mighty Winged Ones, personal guardians to Aryeh, king of all fae–light and dark, above and below. Sounds respectable, right? You have no idea…
They are protectors of Aryeh foremost, but their adventures and misadventures cascade into so much more!
Along with all mernakind, immortal creatures of human imagination, the Winged Ones have gone from being hunted for their divinely given magic, to surviving in the mundane world without it for better or worse, to escape extinction and enslavement.
While these oath-bound heroes attempt to keep the lord of all fae safe and alive, they are also trying to protect their friends, found family, and one another.
Meet Captain Five and Jiera, catshifters; Martigan and Bear, half-fae who started their lives as humans; Tuce, a changeling forever stuck with the appearance of a teenager; and GorGor, a werewolf.
Can they manage Aryeh’s mischief, despite his magic withdrawals and further addictions? Will they keep all mernakind connected through their darkest times, or…will they fail?
**********
The Winged Ones is a collection of short stories from the guardians of Aryeh, the king of all fae. It spans the life and times of these mis-matched, unconventional heroes artfully combining historical and urban fantasy with paranormal romance and epic adventure with and without magic.

A Merna Annals Side Quest 2: Pearl and Gold
Pearl and Gold: A Paranormal Romance Adventure Novella (A Merna Annals Side Quest)
Enjoy this side quest to Jenna O’Malley’s dark epic paranormal romantasy series, The Merna Annals, where…
Paradise. At last. Is this our home?
Magic has been Divinely blocked from all magical beings, not just humans. What can mernakind do? Everything in their power to survive—even if adapting changes them forever.
They sail to a New World and new state of being on a refitted Lusty Strumpet. As their former queen, Nephtyri has a duty to ensure they have a safe home. Our resilient lass leads her found family to the shores of the very isle from her long-ago dreams, where Ian proposed. Their future depends on their ability to adapt to the ongoing changes humans make to the world. They’ll discover fresh allies and welcome new family along the way.
Nephtyri's tales are woven into a tapestry entwined with the fates of her friends and family. She must be a role model, humbled but determined to learn new wisdom. After all, not all magic is the same. Where will it all lead? Can she be the example all immortals need? Will she be able to help them overcome their loss and survive?
***
Pearl and Gold is an episodic novella told from the point of view of Nephtyri, the vampiric mage-queen of all mernakind. She must learn to live and lead her magical, found family in a human world without magic. This novella artfully combines historical and urban fantasy with paranormal romance and epic adventure while immersing the reader in a world that has forsaken our heroes.
