Your next escape begins here
About Me.
Hey guys, I'm Carrie Mellem. After four successful careers and twenty years of searching, I finally found my true passion—writing romantasy. I’m the debut author of The Sunbound Saga, coming in 2026, a series full of magic, passion, and the kind of escape I’ve always loved about reading. I’m a travel lover at heart, but my two all-time favorite spots will always be Keawakapu Beach, Maui and Seabrook. WA.
When I’m not binge reading the next best romance, romantic fantasy, rom-com etc., you’ll find me sipping a decaf coconut milk latte with cinnamon, snuggling my Bernedoodle Odie, or soaking up inspiration from the misty beauty of the Pacific Northwest.
The Sunbound Saga - Coming 2026
The Sunbound Saga is a romantasy series set in a kingdom powered by the sun, where four siblings are bound by prophecy, magic, and impossible choices. With spicey romance, dangerous secrets, and a fight to protect their world, the saga is a journey of love, loyalty, and the cost of destiny.
You guys, I can’t wait to share this story with you! The Sunbound Saga is my debut romantasy series—a five-book journey full of magic, high-stakes drama, enemies-to-lovers tension, and an epic battle between good and evil. Book one, The Heir and the Vow, is coming your way in mid-to-late 2026!
