COVER REVEAL: Unbound - A Story That Needs to Be Told

Published 13 days ago • 1 min read

Hi Reader!

I'm so excited to share the cover for my next MM romance, Unbound, releasing November 14, 2025. Pre-orders are available starting now!

This story has been reverberating around my brain since I read about the recent US Supreme Court hearings about lifting Colorado's ban on conversion therapy being defended as "freedom of speech." The inherent cruelty of that argument stuck with me, and I knew I needed to write this book.

Unbound follows Jesse Miller, who has spent his entire life holding hateful protest signs outside the places his church condemns. Then he's forced to walk into a gay bar, and everything changes.

Adrian Costas shouldn't care about the gorgeous protester who stumbled into his world. But when his friends dare him to shake Jesse's faith, Adrian can't resist the challenge. What starts as a game becomes something real when Jesse begins questioning everything he's been taught, and becomes even more real for Adrian when he realizes he's fallen for Jesse.

Their Constitutional Law class forces them together, and Jesse discovers a dangerous truth: the world he's been taught to hate might be exactly where he belongs.

This is a story about found family, forbidden love, overcoming hate, and the courage it takes to finally be yourself. I'm incredibly proud of Jesse's journey to freedom and his path to acknowledging who he truly is.

Unbound will be available November 14, 2025 on:

  • Amazon Kindle & Kindle Unlimited
  • Paperback
  • Local library ebook (you may need to request it since independently published books aren't always included by default, but your librarian can help!)

I can't wait for you to meet Jesse and Adrian!
