Welcome

Hi, I’m D. L. Lewellyn, an independent author writing fantasy romance every chance I get.

My passion for writing took me by surprise in 2020, following a summer of voracious, lockdown-induced reading in my favorite genre, paranormal romance. Besides my self-published books, my stories have appeared in anthologies, and more novels are on the horizon.

Not surprising. Anyone who knows me will tell you I’m a dedicated multi-crafter. Take a peek inside my colorful, cluttered studio, and you’ll see it for yourself.

Good friends, good books and a sleepy conscience: this is the ideal life.

Don’t Make Me Leave My Pod People!

I recently explored the concept of my characters sprouting from alien spoors, seeding my mind with featureless golems that come to life through my fingers and spring over the keyboard. Yes, I live with pods in my head. I really like it in there, and they depend on me. What I don’t like is having…

This is a shifter romance unlike one I have ever read before! I’m enjoying it and book 2 so much I didn’t even sleep last night to start book 2!!! I was trying to figure out how to do a GOOD review without giving away anything…. don’t know if I can besides saying it’s an amazing found family on multiple sides and DEFINITELY a different kind of shifter romance!!! It’s great! Seriously, almost done with book 2 already!!!

Goodreads review

This series has amazing world building! The second book expanded on the lore, and we got to know the secondary characters better, making the found family vibe from book one even stronger. I loved it!

The MCs spent some quality time together, too :D There was more danger and action in this book compared to the previous, and I enjoyed that as well. Lots of exciting things coming in book 3, so l’m off to read that asap!

Amazing

I cried, I laughed, and I was angry. The ride was so worth it! This series was my introduction to reading this genre. I have found this to be some of the best writing, story telling and follow through on all character paths of any prior reading of any genre.
