Tessa lives with her wife, son, dog, and 3 cats in Northeastern Ohio. Much of her inspiration is drawn from her personal experiences and a love of the horror genre. COVID allowed her to rediscover a love for reading and writing, and she's now made her childhood dream come true with her first published short story: Expectant.

Klappentext

Nat and Autumn Collier are finally ready for a family after 8 blissful years of marriage. Autumn is pregnant with their dream baby thanks to the miracle of IVF, but when her health takes a turn for the worse, Nat is forced to advocate for her ill wife and beat the clock that is Indiana's 10-week abortion ban. It seems that no one is taking her concerns seriously, especially Autumn's OB Dr. Colter, who suddenly seems like he might have something to do with the negative effects of Autumn's pregnancy.
