Because my brain refused to pick a lane. There's the cozy, whimsical half that writes grumpy heroes and small-town banter. And the unhinged chaos gremlin that wants fated mates, fangs, and "I'd burn the world for you" energy. The divorce is final. Everyone's happier.

I vote for human rights. Every time.

That means I support:

  • Universal healthcare (yes, it works — I live in a country that has it)
  • LGBTQIA+ rights and protections
  • Disability access and inclusion
  • Racial justice - especially First Nations rights and Treaty in Australia.
  • Reproductive rights
  • Refugee and immigrant rights
  • Workers' rights
  • Climate action
  • Strict gun control
  • Body positivity and size inclusion

I'm for anything that moves us toward a more inclusive, equitable world. I hope my books reflect that.

SPICE, CONTENT & AGE RATINGS

SPICY. All books under both pen names contain explicit sexual content, open-door steamy scenes, and adult language. Not clean romance. Not fade-to-black. Full spice. 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️

3-5 on a 5-point scale. Evie Mitchell contemporary books tend toward playful, fun spice (3-4🌶️). E.V. Mitchell paranormal/romantasy books are more intense and primal (4-5🌶️).

No. All books are written for adults aged 18+ and contain explicit sexual content, adult language, and mature themes. These are not YA books.

Yes. Content warnings are provided in the front matter of every book and on individual book pages. Lighter series have minimal warnings beyond explicit content. Darker series (Nameless Souls MC, Shadowmist Pack, The Bride Hunt) may include violence, captivity, trauma, and darker themes.

Open-door. All intimate scenes are explicitly written on the page. If you prefer fade-to-black or closed-door romance, these books are not for you.

Yes — lots of it! Evie's a self-proclaimed potty mouth. Characters swear freely and there's adult language throughout.

It varies by series. Darker series like Nameless Souls MC, Elliot Security, Stoneheart MC, Shadowmist Pack, and The Bride Hunt include action scenes, fighting, and violence as part of the plot.

No cliffhangers on the romance. Every couple gets their complete HEA within their book. Series may have ongoing side plots, but you won't be left hanging on the love story.

Where there are books with a continuation of the couple i.e. a trilogy, there are cliffhangers between the books, but they do get a HEA by the end of the series.

DIVERSE, BODY-POSITIVE & DISABILITY REPRESENTATION

Yes — it's central to the brand. All books feature body-positive heroines, and diverse body types. Heroes worship their heroines exactly as they are.

Yes! Plus-size, curvy heroines are a signature of many of Evie Mitchell's books. Bodies are celebrated, not criticized or changed. These are love stories for every body.

Yes — #OwnVoices disability romance. Evie Mitchell lives with chronic illness and writes authentic disability representation from lived experience. The All Access series features protagonists with mobility disabilities, chronic pain, and invisible illness.

#OwnVoices means the author shares the identity they're writing about. Evie Mitchell lives with chronic illness, so her disability romance comes from personal experience rather than outside observation. This results in more authentic, nuanced representation.

Yes. Evie Mitchell lives with chronic illness, which informs her authentic disability representation in romance. She's a strong advocate for disability inclusion in mainstream romance.

Absolutely! Heroes worship their heroines' bodies exactly as they are. No "despite her curves" nonsense. These men are obsessed with their partners.

Yes. Beyond body-positive and disability rep, Evie Mitchell's books include LGBTQ+ characters (including MM romance), characters with chronic illness, mental health representation, and diverse backgrounds.

Yes. When I write characters with experiences outside my own — race, culture, sexuality, disabilities I don't have — I work with sensitivity readers and expert consultants from those communities. I pay them for their expertise, and I listen to their feedback. I also research like crazy!

I'm not perfect. I'll make mistakes. If you spot something I've gotten wrong, I'd genuinely like to know — reach out via my contact page.
