***NEWSFLASH!!***

Bock auf deutsch?

Ich habe mich endlich entschlossen, meine Serie Second Chance Academy ins Deutsche zu übersetzen. 

Ihr könnt entweder hier mitlesen, obwohl ich die etwas gwagteren Szenen hier nicht einstellen werde, um mein Konto nicht zu gefährden. 

Dafür werden aber alle Kapitel bei Patreon erscheinen. Die neueste Übersetzung ist dann jeweils umsonst zu lesen, bis das nächste Kapitel eingestellt wird. Schaut euch das Ganze bei patreon.com an!

Mehr Infos hier.

THE SHOP IS OPEN!

Virgo blessed
book one of the zodiacs

Okay, picture this: One day, you’re shelving books, minding your own business, and the next, you’re told you’re the Virgo Zodiac, destined to save… well, everyone. That’s my life now. Gin Mae—small-town librarian, suddenly the center of a supernatural crisis I didn’t even know existed.

And my protectors? A lineup that sounds like the start of a bad joke: a dragon shifter, a gargoyle, an incubus, and a human veteran who’s seen more than his share of battles. Talk about diving headfirst into a world I never knew was right under my nose.

Thrown into this chaos, I’ve got to navigate this new reality with guys I’m supposed to trust overnight. One’s got wings and a temper, another’s made of stone but not as tough as he looks, then there’s the one who could seduce a statue, and lastly, a hero with scars deeper than mine. We’re a mix of oil and water, fire and earth, but somehow, we’ve got to blend to fight a council that’s out for blood—mine, to be precise.

So here I am, the reluctant centerpiece in a fight against a shadowy enemy, with allies who I’m not sure yet I can trust. What if I’m wrong? Wouldn’t be the first time…

welcome to my site

My name is Ella J. Smyth, I live in Frankfurt, Germany and I’m passionate about romance, particularly my brand of kick-ass romance, featuring damaged characters who need each other to survive. 

Paranormal romance, romantic thrillers, gay romance–if it’s got two (or more) difficult characters finding each other, I’m on board!

I write at my living room table, usually covered with folded laundry because I couldn’t be bothered to tidy before sitting down. My kids are teenagers, so not much help there either.

I do love having them around, and I’ve gotten used to writing with a background noise of Grand Theft Auto and teenage histrionics. Maybe that’s why I prefer writing action scenes over descriptive settings!

Reverse Harem was never on my radar until last year. I’m so glad I found it–the research alone was so much fun!

Check out my Pinterest account to see my inspiration. Finding pics of Amber’s boys was certainly no hardship 🙂 I love to talk to my readers, online and offline, so feel free to drop me a line!

Second Chance Heat, the fourth instalment of the Second Chance Academy series, will be out by 3rd May 2021.
