Scarlet Ibis James is having one of those seasons where good news keeps knocking.
First up, Scarlet Birthright: What They Left Behind has been named a Finalist for the 2025 Discovery Editor’s Choice Awards. For a story rooted in inheritance, absence, and the long work of healing, this recognition feels especially meaningful. It is the kind of nod that makes an author pause, breathe, and smile.
As if that weren’t enough, Scarlet Birthright is also featured in a StoryOrigin group promotion, alongside a lineup of thoughtful, indigenous reads worth discovering. Curious readers can explore the full collection here:

And because it is the season for cozy evenings and emotionally honest love stories, Scarlet’s latest holiday romance for grown-ups, Love in the Dark, is making the rounds too.
You’ll find it included in two festive BookFunnel collections:
Warm Hearts for Winter Nights, a cozy gathering of sweet, soul-settling holiday reads 👉 https://books.bookfunnel.com/warmheartsforwinternights/vm975cgkk3 Forever Love Reads, a celebration of enduring love in all its imperfect, beautiful forms 👉 https://books.bookfunnel.com/allromances/4peuien8zk
In short, if holiday TBR lists are being assembled, now is the moment to stock them generously. There are stories here meant for quiet nights, warm drinks, and that particular kind of reading where you close the book feeling a little more human than before.
Scarlet is grateful, a little giddy, and deeply appreciative of every reader who keeps showing up for these stories.
