From Cauldron to Quill:
Stories Forged in Magic, Memory, and Reckoning
Tegan Lleuad writes at the crossroads of myth and modernity—where old magic survives in new forms, and stories remember things the world tries to forget.
A practicing witch for nearly four decades and a guide for seekers for over ten years, Tegan brings lived magic, folklore, and hard-won wisdom to the page. These are not aesthetic spells or borrowed myths. They are stories shaped by practice, place, and power—where sovereignty matters, memory has a cost, and the past is never finished with us.
Welcome to tales written with a steady hand, a sharp edge, and a deep respect for the uncanny.
🌙 Spellbinding fiction, forged in the cauldron of Awen 🌙

Some Secrets Surface. Others pull you under.
Sophie Bright has spent the last ten years drifting from place to place, never staying long enough to belong anywhere.
Rising Tides RV Park was supposed to be another temporary stop. A few quiet weeks by the water. A place to rest before moving on.
But something about the park feels… different.
The residents are welcoming, but watchful. The land itself seems to hum beneath her feet. And when a man is found dead in the mangroves just hours after asking Sophie a series of unsettling questions, it becomes clear this is no ordinary coastal community.
The police call it an isolated incident. The residents know better.
As Sophie is pulled deeper into the mystery, she begins to uncover a pattern beneath the surface—one tied to the land, the tides, and the people who are drawn here for reasons they don’t understand.
Because some places don’t just keep secrets. They collect them.
And Sophie may have been chosen for a reason.
The Rising Tides Mysteries is a dark-cozy paranormal mystery series set along Florida’s haunted coast, where supernatural species, classic monsters, and something older beneath the tides collide. Fans of Grimm; Midnight, Texas; and The Southern Book Club’s Guide to Slaying Vampires will love this dark-cozy introduction to the Kindred Universe.

In My Veins
He is her mortal fascination. She is his eternal complication.
Kiara Savage has spent centuries perfecting the art of distance. As a vampire, solitude is survival—and humans are nothing more than sustenance. But when an old acquaintance meddles with magic, Kiara becomes the unwitting victim of a love spell… one that leaves her irresistibly drawn to Oliver Bergara, a brilliant, quietly wounded human whose very presence stirs something deeper than bloodlust.
Oliver has locked his heart away, burned once by love and determined never to be fooled again. His world is code, coffee, and a few trusted friends—until Kiara disrupts everything. She’s cold as moonlight, strange as myth, and impossible to ignore.
As their connection intensifies, Kiara is forced to confront a part of herself she buried long ago—a part that yearns, aches, loves. But the deeper she falls, the more dangerous the truth becomes. Because in her world, love is a liability… and Oliver may be her greatest weakness.
Ancient rivalries stir, secrets bleed into the light, and a single wrong move could cost them both everything.
In My Veins is an intoxicating tale of forbidden passion, buried wounds, and a craving that defies blood and reason.
The Withered Crown
In a world that punishes integrity, defiance becomes sacred
Magic still endures in the Blue Ridge Mountains, tucked behind the church bells and gossip of Briar Gap, North Carolina. Mara Hollis runs the local occult shop where spells are sold in mason jars and wrapped in brown paper. But when a protection spell meant to banish her obsessive ex goes wrong, it calls something ancient across the Veil, and a cursed fae guardian answers. Eiranthiel is bound, beautiful and dangerous. He owes Mara protection until she’s “safe.” Trouble is, nothing in Briar Gap is safe anymore. Her ex refuses to let go, an authoritarian president has begun targeting those who don’t fit his vision of order, and the magic Mara used to defend herself begins to unravel the thin places around her home, drawing forgotten powers back into the world. As zealotry spreads through the hills and old magic stirs in answer, Mara must decide who she is willing to become to survive. With her coven, her watchful cat, and the reluctant guardian she never meant to summon, she must choose whether to hide, fight, or reclaim the mountain’s memory before it devours its own. A story of witches and weather, sovereignty and control, The Withered Crown is about the cost of safety, the defiance of remembrance, and the dangerous grace of being truly seen.
