Royals and Heirs

If you're an Emm Darcy fan, following the Heritage and the royals of Anderia, this one is for you.

Royals and Heirs is a combined version of Toxic Hearts, Stay Toxic, Royal Doll and Royally Snowed In, with a few bonus chapters, and a print exclusive short story (Not So Secret) at the end.



The hardback features:
  • a gold foil title
  • four double page color art 
  • double page chapter backgrounds 

Swag reward levels will come with: 
  • 8 art prints (4 regular 4 naughty)
  • map of Thorn Falls print
  • chibi of the couples (4)
  • a Heritage plated gold necklace

...and maybe more depending on stretch goals.

 
**Shipping will be calculated and collected after the campaign. See estimate below for a cost idea.

The Separate Hardbacks

Rather than the Royals and Heirs edition, you may also place your order for the four matching hardbacks, with illustrated art.



Toxic Heart is not part of the mock up as it's not yet finalized, but it's part of the reward!…if you’re curious, here’s the current WIP stage! (Which needs adjustment as I’m not happy with the character height difference)

The Reward Levels

Silver

a paperback version of Royals and Heirs, with no special finished (no foil, etc), not signed, no swag.

Gold

a hardback only version, with no special finished (no foil, etc), not signed, no swag.


Platinum

the combined Royals and Heirs hardback, foiled, with all art prints, signed. 

All three of these rewards have the same look—but the product details are different (paperback vs hardback simple vs hardback special edition, signed with swag)





Diamond

four separate hardbacks, illustrated, featuring matching art and foiled title.

(the fourth is still being drawn! there will be an update in a few days with Toxic Hearts)



Crown

the combined hardback Royals and Heirs hardback plus all four separate hardbacks



* do not forget to take the shipping costs into account!

Stretch Goals

The campaign has a low funding goal to make sure we reach it but we can enhance the rewards if we meet stretch goals:

 
  • illustrated endpapers 🔒 
  • sprayed edges (one color. This stretch goal adds a further 2 weeks of production.) 🔒
  • sprayed edges (designed. This stretch goals adds 3 weeks of production) 🔒
  • map of Anderia print 🔒
  • four new art pieces (key scenes.)  🔒
  • a Royal pin 🔒
  • color chapter backgrounds 🔒
  • slip case 🔒
  • four new art pieces (naughty scenes.)  🔒
  • audiobook production (distributed to all backers. This stretch goal will be distributed separately, digitally, post-production.) 🔒

The Shipping

Don't forget to account for shipping while pledging! Here's a estimate


*Shipping will be calculated depending on your specific details, and collected after the campaign, but should not exceed amounts stated above. 

All estimates in GBP. Foreign shipping will be handled by Fedex. UK shipping will be handled by Royal Mail.

The Timing


These four stories, the short and the bonus are all written, and the wraps will go in production as soon as the campaign is over. 

I have a tendency to underestimate how long production, and especially, signing/packaging takes. Rather than my usual optimistic timing, I will give you a generous timing which means that these should get to you faster than this, but I'd rather account for this amount of time just in case: 

  • for reward levels where I don't sign: except to receive the books within 4 weeks after the end of the campaign. It could be much faster, but count 4 weeks just in case. 
  • 6 to 8 weeks after the end of the campaign (depending on stretch goals): the foiled hardbacks get to me. (September to October) 
  • 2 weeks after that: the books are sent out to you. (October to November)

I have hired a part time assistant to come once a week and help with packing, so this should be smooth! But here are an overview of the potential delays: 

  • Printing. The mockup should actually have arrived about 4 or 5 days ago and I'm still waiting; printing delays are common. That said, I accounted for it when I said 6 to 8 weeks--as my printer usually prints in 4. 
  • the map of Anderia may delay the campaign depending on the artist's speed. This is a stretch goal I am not counting on, so the artist has not yet been hired...but she's rather fast and easy to book, so I don't expect we'll have to wait long. You will be updated if that happens. 
  • In case we hit the audiobook stretch goal, production timing will depend on narrators, but the guideline is 3 to 6 months. Paperbacks and hardbacks will be sent on schedule.

All stretch goals achieved in the campaign and rewards apply.

Other Add Ons



Some Girls Do It (combined edition with all 9 books) is a very thick chonker. 



All the Games we Play Add on: the two separate hardbacks (completing Nadia and Jace's story)


Don't forget to take into account shipping increase with add ons.

Edit

Just spying!

I can't support the campaign. Can I read the book a different way?

Yes, absolutely: these four books are available on retailers right now, with their regular raps and ebooks. (Actually Royal Doll is on preorder but it'll come out on the 22nd, so very fast.)

The bonuses of each of those stories are available on my patreon, to select tiers.
Not So Secret is a print exclusive.

The Royals and Heirs hardback is only available as stock lasts and directly from me. 

Edit

Willow and Dimitri

...for the lot of you waiting for Willow and Dimitri, the golden question: will the covers match?

Yes and no. Willow and Dimitri have their own branding, but there will be a version available with the illustrated branding, so if you like it all matchy-matchy, it'll be possible.
 
There will also be an exclusive pin for those who get Royal Heirs and Willow and Dimitri.
