Happy (Belated) Birthday Megan!

For some reason (we’re blaming ANTE), this message wasn’t sent out yesterday (March 15th) as intended! FOILED AGAIN! No matter, we still wanted to make sure you all got the news that it’s our Megan McCullough’s birthday!!

If you love superhero stories with enemies-to-lovers and an adorable sidekick (who gets one heck of a glow up!), you’ll definitely want to check out Megan’s urban fantasy series: The Vigil & Ante Files!

I hope you all love this story as much as I do! Before we go, I also just want to let you know that Whimsical will be closed for our summer holiday from July 29 – August 7th, so any orders placed during that time will ship once Christina and I return to work!
