Why Preorder?

Because your presale helps bring the hardcover edition to life.

Every preorder supports printing, distribution, author events, and the behind-the-scenes magic that makes this release possible.

Because you’ll be first to celebrate.

Your release party invite makes you part of the earliest circle of readers—my first guests in the Authenticitea Café.

Because this book was made for the in-between moments.

And sometimes, you need something reflective waiting on your shelf before life even asks the big questions.
