Friday May 8, 2026 · 6:00 PM - 8:00 PM
Join us at The Ink Pot to celebrate Colette Rivera’s new release: Her Ghostly Embrace.
Her Ghostly Embrace is a sapphic paranormal romance by a local Dunedin author. Colette will be signing books on the night—please preorder to secure your copy.

Proudly hosted by The Ink Pot.
BLURB:
Kiss girls and scorch the earth.
Gia Balzano’s life is ruled by two inescapable facts: she’s the daughter of Ashton Lakes’ ruling crime boss and their family ties are forever. But Gia is a prisoner in her own home, and when she finds out everything was built on a lie, she must break free.
Aurora Thornfield is bound to an evil coven. Her magic is useless against her captors—her family—and there’s only one way to escape their control: sever all earthly ties and free her soul. There’s just one problem. Once Aurora’s spirit leaves her body, she can’t find her way back to her mortal vessel.
Aurora is a ghost trapped between life and death. All seems lost until the day a beautiful woman walks into her, and screams.
Gia didn’t know magic was real, and if every day since fleeing her family wasn’t stranger than the last, she might not accept the truth. But Aurora draws her in like no one in this world ever has, and Gia has a feeling that together they’ll have the power to conquer anything.
***
Her Ghosty Embrace is an FF paranormal romance about two women who have had enough and will stop at nothing to get their happily ever after. And vengeance. This is the first book in the Lockwood Coven series, a group of interconnected, stand-alone novels.
