The Once and Future Hearts hardcover Kickstarter closed at 660% funded. That number isn’t just exciting — it’s enabling. Because of our readers, we’re not just printing books. We’re creating beautiful, permanent editions meant to last for decades. This project didn’t run on ads or algorithms. It ran on trust, shared love of story, and people who wanted something meaningful to exist.
Editing a thirteen-book Arthurian saga isn’t for the faint of heart. Mark pulls back the curtain on his years in the trenches with Once and Future Hearts—from navigating character continuity and protecting authorial voice to the diplomatic art of asking, “Are you sure, Tracy?” as the finale, Camlann, heads into its early-release Kickstarter celebration.
Mark takes a moment to brag — loudly and unapologetically — about Tracy’s incredible achievement: completing the thirteen-book Once and Future Hearts series and preparing its exclusive hardcover Kickstarter. From behind-the-scenes glimpses to outright spousal pride, this post celebrates the epic scope of the project and why the upcoming campaign is such a milestone.
After thirteen books, too many late nights, and a kingdom’s worth of research, the Once and Future Hearts series is finally drawing to a close — and we’re going out with a bang. For the first time ever, we’re releasing a 13-book hardcover collector’s set, exclusive to Kickstarter. If you’ve loved this saga — or are just discovering it — this is your chance to own the entire series in a beautiful, keepsake edition… and get the final book, Camlann, six months ahead of the public release.

Today, SRP author Tracy Cooper-Posey released the 11th and penultimate book in her Arthurian Fantasy Romance series, Once and Future Hearts.
In today’s world, where assertiveness is prized and self-expression is practically a life skill, the notion of someone being secretly in love and saying absolutely nothing about it feels… off. Unrealistic, even.
But for argument’s sake, let’s say such a person exists. Someone who loves another deeply, completely, without ever breathing a word.
Here’s the problem: how do you keep it secret?
Because real love, the kind that makes your pulse skitter and your heart do the stupid thing in your chest every time they walk into the room—that kind of love leaks.
It shows up in your eyes, your voice, your every bloody expression.
Boudicca wasn’t just a queen—she was an inferno wrapped in iron. After the Romans flogged her and assaulted her daughters, she rallied her tribe and scorched a path through Roman Britain so fierce, it still smolders in the national memory. She’s not just part of history—she is history. And maybe, just maybe, she shares blood with Arthur himself. The stories blur. The legends tangle. But oh, what a tale they tell.
Fantasy is having a moment—and romance readers might just find their next favorite story nestled between spellbooks and cinnamon rolls. Cozy fantasy offers the emotional warmth, character depth, and satisfying endings romance fans already love. Here’s why this booming genre might be your perfect next read—and where to start exploring.
Fantasy is booming—and not just for Gen Z. Whether you’re swooning over dragon-riding romantasy or savoring the quiet charm of a magical coffee shop, the genre is exploding with new titles. But with the tidal wave of new releases comes reader overwhelm, quality dilution, and trend fatigue. How do you navigate the boom without burning out? By refining your taste, following trusted curators, and embracing the magic that speaks to you.
