If you’re interested in a spicy read that crosses boundaries between literary fiction and contemporary romance, a love triangle where you never know whether to root for one couple, the other, or both, and an inversion of romance tropes where the two key female characters each hold higher social status than the plucky male lead, you’re going to love Love Economy, my first novel forthcoming in early 2025. Check out my author page for Love Economy at mromerauthor.com
My poetry chapbookThe Adored Garden was published through Philadelphia-based Moonstone Press in 2022. You can order the book through my Woo Commerce store or directly through Moonstone. Allegra Silbertein, Poet Laureate Emerita of Davis, California says that “The Adored Garden could well become your adored book.” Give it a try!
