đ From the Maverick Pride Tales to Magical Matchmaking: The Birth of Uncle Uzziâs Date to Mate
Every once in a while, a side character steals the show.
For me, that character was Uncle Uzziâthe mischievous, mysterious, and endlessly meddling matchmaking Witch who first appeared in my Maverick Pride Tales.
He was supposed to be a bit of comic relief, a magical uncle who âjust happenedâ to nudge fated mates together in delightfully chaotic ways. But readers fell in love with himâand honestly, so did I.
I canât tell you how many messages I got asking,
âWhen is Uncle Uzzi getting his own series?â
So, I listened. â¨
Welcome to Uncle Uzziâs Date to Mate
Imagine if a Witch created a magical matchmaking app that promises to connect supernatural singles with their one true fated mate.
Thatâs exactly what Uncle Uzzi didâbecause why not mix spellcraft with a little modern technology (and a whole lot of chaos)?
Each book in the Date to Mate universe is a bite-sized paranormal rom-com packed with everything you crave:
đť Growly, possessive Shifters
đ Curvy, confident heroines
⨠Magical mishaps & fated-mate sparks
â¤ď¸ Laugh-out-loud moments & guaranteed HEAs
Not every Shifter is ready for loveâbut once the app works its magic, resistance is futile. There will be claiming bites, steamy sparks, and, of course, a few hiccups on the road to forever.
𧥠Why I Love Writing These Stories
Iâve always believed that love stories should make you laugh as much as they make you swoon. The Date to Mate series lets me play in that lighter, funnier corner of my paranormal worldâbringing together familiar faces and new favorites across the Grazi Kelly Universe.
Some of the characters youâll meet here started as secondary characters youâve met in past booksâthe ones readers kept asking about! Others are brand-new creations who stumbled into Uzziâs orbit (and straight into love).
Writing these stories feels like reconnecting with old friends while making new ones, and I hope they make you smile just as much as they do me.
