Don’t interrupt me if you see me making a deal with a mystical beast or elf king. Adventure awaits, and I will not be stopped.

Welcome, my darling mortal!

 

I’m Larissa Antonioni, a Midwest gal who thrives in the snow, survives on icy coffee, and reads only the spiciest of books. By day (and sometimes by night), I’m a stay-at-home mom, developmental editor, and proofreader, but in every second of spare time, I’m a creator of magic, romance, and danger.​

My Story

I grew up scribbling stories and sketching fantastical creatures at my grandmother and late grandfather’s dining table. Literacy was always a challenge for me as a child, but they encouraged me to follow my dreams anyway, offering quiet smiles and gentle nudges toward whatever I imagined next. While I’m sure they didn’t anticipate that those dreams would lead me to writing dark, twisted worlds filled with morally gray heroes, redeemable characters, and just a touch of spice… I carry their belief in me with every word.

One of my biggest goals now is to show my adorable son, that achieving your dreams is possible, so long as you believe in yourself and have the determination to make it happen.

My Dearest Darling, Mortals...
