If you've ever counted down the days until the Scholastic Book Fair, raced to finish another chapter for a free personal pan pizza, or wished the Magic Tree House would appear outside your window, then you already know where this story begins.
Books have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. They taught me to dream beyond the world around me, to believe in impossible adventures, and to find magic tucked into ordinary moments. Those stories became part of who I am.
As the years passed, life grew fuller. I became a wife, a mother, and continuously worked in the corporate world like so many others. But no matter how much life changed, I never wanted to lose the part of myself that believed in enchanted forests, brave heroines, found families, and happily ever afters.
Then I found BookTok.
What started as recommendations for my next read quickly became something much bigger. It became a community of loved ones who reminded me that growing up doesn't mean leaving wonder behind. Together we laughed, cried, obsessed over fictional characters, and celebrated stories that made us feel a little less alone.
Romantasy Relics was born from that feeling.
I wanted to create keepsakes that let us carry those stories beyond the final page. Pieces that remind us of the worlds we've fallen in love with and the people we've become because of them. A little reminder that even when the outside world asks us to be practical, busy, or serious, there's still room to hold onto whimsy.
Because I believe everyone deserves to celebrate their imagination.
Thank you for being here and for believing, alongside me, that stories don't end when we close the book.
This is only the prologue.
