In the Allie series, Lizzie Shaper is the mysterious founder of Toytell. A visionary born sometime in the 1930s who created the Dollies to empower girls in a world that did its best to suppress them. But like most bold ideas, hers took on a life of its own.

​

And somewhere along the way, I did too.

​

Inspired by childhood toys and more than a few heartbreaks that deserved a rewrite, I write contemporary love stories with heat, heart, and a touch of glitter-fueled rebellion. 

​

Through Allie and the world of Dollietopia, I explore the same things many of us quietly wrestle with:
How many heartbreaks can one woman survive and still believe in love? Are all men dogs? Does modern, true love exist? And if it does, what trials, lessons, and reckonings does it demand before you find it?

​

This series isn’t just about romance.​ It’s about questioning the beliefs we inherited about love, men, and our own worth. It’s about self-forgiveness for what we once accepted before we knew better. And it’s about reshaping those beliefs so we can love again; open-hearted, conscious, wiser, and without abandoning ourselves in the process.

If you’ve ever felt torn between empowerment and longing…
 

If you’ve ever wondered whether wanting love makes you weak…
 

If you’ve ever loved deeply and paid for it…

 

You’re in the right place.

 

Welcome to a series where broken hearts heal,​  girl power meets uncomfortable questions, and the path to wholeness includes a cursed sex swing and a simple boy worth believing in.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
