The Marigold Bridge

In San Miguel de Allende, nineteen-year-old socialite Araceli Flores loses everything overnight – her beloved father presumed dead, her home gambled away, and her family’s fortune stolen by ruthless mob boss Hector de Nava. Forced into servitude for the man responsible, Aracell’s only hope lies in the gift she’d always considered a burden: channeling the ancestors during El Día de los Muertos. Desperate for answers, she attempts to use her abilities to discover the truth, but the ancestors offer only a frantic warning: “Don’t drink the water!” Aided by her childhood crush, Araceli unearths a conspiracy that runs deeper than her father’s disappearance-one Hector will kill to keep buried. But as bodies begin to fall and Hector closes in, she must bridge the gap between life and death to restore her legacy and free San Miguel from corruption. Steeped in revenge, ancestral magic, and love, The Marigold Bridge is a spellbinding tale where fortune favors the humble-and the dead refuse to stay silent.

About the Author

I have a Bachelor of Science and was honored as 2025 Writing Day Workshops First Pages romance winner. As a dyslexic writer and member of the ND/DIS community, I’m passionate about showing others that it is possible to surmount the odds and dreams are obtainable. My writing is deeply shaped by my own experience, and the connections between natural/supernatural. I’m a certified intuitive medicine practitioner and draw inspiration from my holistic studies as well. If I’m not writing, you’ll most likely find me playing with my dogs or curled up in my hammock with a book.
