Fated to the Vampire Prince
The Wattpad hit with 690k+ reads is coming to KU and paperback on 11/7/25!
Just in time for the roads to Chateau Rose to freeze over and trap us in Bastien’s castle.
A dark, seductive vampire romantasy with all the scandal and seduction of Bridgerton—with sharper teeth.
Vampires rule the uneasy peace between the Witches of Light and the Witches of Darkness, bound by a fragile treaty that could shatter at any moment. Living under the shame of being a magickless witch, Claire Prideaux accepts a deadly mission from her family. Bound by a cursed necklace to infiltrate the vampire court or die, her task is clear: expose their secrets.
But her plans unravel when she learns she is the mate of Prince Bastien Allard, the Duke of Roselyn, and the most dangerous vampire of them all. Claiming their bond would bind their souls together forever—something neither of them want. To Bastien, such a bond is a curse that could ruin his court and cost him everything. To Claire, it is the ultimate betrayal of her family and the vow she made to avenge them.
As ancient treaties fracture and whispers of rebellion spread, Claire must navigate a court steeped in magick, deadly bargains, and ruthless schemes—while Bastien struggles against the fate that tempts him at every turn. One wrong move could ignite a war between witches and vampires, and tether her heart to the very man she was raised to hate.
Fated to the Vampire Prince is the first book in a lush, gothic romantasy duology filled with forbidden love, political intrigue, and a fated bond neither vampire nor witch can resist.
Content Warning: I care about your mental health. This book contains darker themes and sexually explicit content, as well as blood, violence, grief over off-page deaths, and vampire feedings. Language is occasionally strong. All intimacy between the central couple is consensual and enthusiastic; however, there is a clear power imbalance between them.
Trigger note: the heroine’s backstory includes past emotional manipulation, gaslighting, and abuse (these experiences are referenced but not depicted in graphic detail).
Reader discretion advised.
No Bad Drafts
"This book isn't just healing writers. It's healing people." Sarah Rieke, LPC.
What if writer’s block isn’t a wall to break through, but a part of you waving a red flag—screaming it doesn’t feel safe to create?
What if that part has its own story to tell?
And what if the only thing standing between you and your next chapter is the courage to listen?
No Bad Drafts invites you to stop fighting your writer's block and start listening to it. Drawing on Internal Family Systems (IFS) and her background in counseling, book coach Ainsley James shows you how to meet the parts of yourself that block your words and uncover the wounds they’re protecting. Instead of working against these parts, you’ll learn how to write alongside them.
Inside, you’ll discover how to:
Heal the parts keeping you from the page.
Free your authentic voice and finally write with joy.
Grow self-compassion and a deeper understanding of yourself.
Because there are no bad drafts—only parts of you waiting to feel safe enough to create.
Expand your practice through the companion workbook, which includes bonus journal activities and space to explore your inner world more deeply.
