This is Ink & Intrigue—the blog where romance ignites, secrets simmer, and every love story hides a twist. I’m your blog host, Sheila Kell, romance author and lover of plot twists, slow burns, and morally questionable book boyfriends.

There’s a moment with every book that feels a little surreal.

The drafts are finished.
The edits are done.
The characters have stopped whispering at 2 a.m. and finally taken their places on the page.

And then, one morning, the story is no longer just yours.

Today is that day.

Twilight’s Promise is officially live.

This book has lived in my head and heart for a long time. It’s a story about trust that’s tested, loyalties that blur, and the kind of love that arrives when it’s least convenient and most dangerous. The characters fought me in all the best ways. The twists surprised even me once or twice. And the mission at the center of it all…let’s just say no one walks away unchanged.

At its core, Twilight’s Promise is romantic suspense the way I love it most:

• High stakes and higher emotions

• Secrets that refuse to stay buried

• Characters who have to choose love when it would be safer not to

If you enjoy slow-burn tension, protect-at-all-costs heroes, and heroines who refuse to be sidelined, this story was written with you in mind.

Release days are always a mix of excitement and nerves. An author spends months, sometimes years, alone with a manuscript, and then suddenly it belongs to readers. It becomes your interpretations, your favorite lines, your theories, and your emotional reactions. That transformation is one of the most rewarding parts of writing.

If you decide to step into this world, I hope the story keeps you turning pages late into the night. I hope the twists catch you off guard. I hope the romance makes you feel something real.

And most of all, I hope Twilight’s Promise reminds you why we love stories about danger and devotion in the first place.

Because in the end, no matter how chaotic the mission or how dark the shadows…

Happily-ever-afters hit harder after chaos. 🖤
