About Me

Shay Alexander
I’m Shay Alexander! A chaotic, caffeine-fueled mom, personal trainer, and fantasy author who can’t decide which story to obsess over next (spoiler: it’s usually all of them). I write spicy fantasy where elemental magic pulses under every choice, monsters refuse to follow the rules, and the heat level is always turned up.
With a history degree finally put to good use, I build worlds steeped in ancient secrets, messy curses, and just enough danger to keep you hooked (and maybe a little sweaty because yes, I also create fantasy-inspired fitness programs. It’s a thing).
I never planned on writing until a friend caught me throwing out wild fan theories and said, “You should write your own.” Ten years, one published novel, and countless cups of coffee later, here I am: writing dark, twisty tales with a dash of spice and a whole lot of neurospicy black-cat energy. If you like morally grey disasters and bad decisions, we’re going to get along just fine.
Thorns of the Veiled Heir
Some stories were never meant to stay buried.
Archaeologist Lilyana went to Babylon to unearth history, not to be swallowed by it. Ripped from the Iraqi dust by a violent whirlwind, she is dropped into a tropical oasis made flesh; the legendary Hanging Gardens.
But this paradise is a kingdom screaming on the brink of civil war. In a court of silver tongues and ancient grudges, Lilyana is no longer a scientist; she is a prize. Powerful factions circle, desperate to crown her, use her, or control her for their own gain.
Surrounded by a small circle of allies and a blossoming power she doesn't understand, Lilyana must navigate a web of predatory grace to stop a war before it begins. To survive, she must finally uncover the mystery that has haunted her since she was a baby: the truth about the mother she never knew.
In a paradise of endless bloom, the truth is the sharpest thorn of all.
