Hi, I'm Leah! I believe magical stories have the power make the world a brighter place, so I write clean, immersive, hope-filled romantic fantasy with authentic heroines and heroes who find the light inside despite the darkness around them (and, of course, find love and fantastical adventure along the way). On a scale of cozy-to-grimdark, you could say my books are cozy-adjacent—sometimes exploring depths of feeling and danger too heavy for cozy but never going near the dark half of the spectrum. Each series will always have a happy ending, even if the characters experience some low points along the way (as we all do in life). I began crafting stories almost from the moment I learned to speak. One of my very first novels was a fantasy retelling of Robin Hood, emailed to my siblings and best friend chapter by chapter. Years later, I graduated from Brigham Young University (Provo) in 2016 with a degree in English language and a minor in editing. I then edited for seven years and pivoted to writing in 2023. I am based in the DC area, where I live with family and my handsome rescue Australian shepherd, Wes.
