Is A Dawn of Onyx spicy? Are the next ones going to be SPICIER?
Yes and YES! Book one is really all about the toe-curling tension— It has some spice for sure, but it’s not a spicy-scene-every-chapter kind of book. Books two and three will be far more spicy. ACOTAR is a good comparison for their spice level!
Is A Dawn of Onyx a standalone?
No, it’s the first in a trilogy. Book two, A Promise of Peridot, is out now, and A Reign of Rose, the third and final book in the trilogy, will be released October 8th 2024.
Will Griffin and Mari get a spin off?
The short answer is I hope so! I have an idea of the story I’d love to tell but it will depend on many factors, most of which are out of my control. I think I’ll put something out eventually!
Are there any trigger warnings for The Sacred Stones?
Yes. These books contain depictions of physical abuse, violence, gore, attempted rape, torture, and consensual sexual situations.
There is no love triangle, no SA, and no cheating.
Do you have merch?
Yes! You can find all the great Sacred Stones themed merch, HERE.
Who is this series for?
Anyone who has googled “Fantasy romance, enemies to lovers, with spice and plot.” Fans of the following tropes: heroine coming into her power, caretaker scenes, morally grey men, found family, forced proximity, “Who did this to you?", and lots of tension. Readers who love multiple kingdoms, each with their own unique landscape and culture. Fans of genuine female friendship, spicy trilogies, romantic relationships built on mutual respect, and swoon-worthy, escapist fantasy.
What comes after Sacred Stones?
Nothing I can announce yet, but keep an eye on my social media as well as my newsletter. I’ll be announcing a couple new things before the end of the year!
I want to join the Katedates mailing list, but don’t want a ton of spam emails, please!
Don’t worry! Spam e-mails are the bane of my existence and I would never inflict them on you! I only send one email a month, and only with real information or updates. Or a juicy teaser!
How can I get the passwords for the Bonus Scenes?
The password to Kane and Griffin’s POVs are shared monthly in my newsletter!
