Karyne (00:00:07) – Hi fantasy readers. This is Karyne Norton, your fellow book binger, and you are listening to the Finding Fantasy Reads podcast where you can test out a new fantasy story every single week to find your next favorite author.

You’ll want to stick around for today’s story if you like romantic fantasy. I feel like a lot of times I need to list a few fun elements in the story to make sure I catch anyone who might like the story, but with romantic fantasy, I feel like people either want all the romantic fantasy or none of it, so that’s all the hint you get.

Today’s story is also part one of two, so you’ll want to come back next week to catch the conclusion. It’s written by Celeste Baxendell, who endeavors to write devastatingly romantic stories with compelling, complex characters finding light in dark times. Stick around to the end or check out today’s show notes to see where you can find more from the author. For now, please enjoy Shoes of Red: Part 1 by Celeste Baxendell.

Have you subscribed to Finding Fantasy Reads? If not, I highly recommend it. It should be available on your preferred podcasting platform, and it lets you automatically download new episodes as they come in. I personally use Overcast, but there are pros and cons to all the options out there. Subscribing also helps increase the podcast’s visibility on podcast platforms, which helps both authors and listeners find the show, which will allow me to keep making more episodes. And you want that, right? I’ll have links for all the platforms as well as Celeste’s website in the show notes.

Thank you all for listening, and happy reading!

Featured Author

Celeste Baxendell

Celeste Baxendell has always read anything she could get her hands on, but once she read her first fantasy novel, she was hooked and hasn’t looked back since. Her love of magic, adventure, and romance hasn’t waned with age, and she endeavors to write devastatingly romantic stories with compelling, complex characters, and finding light in dark times. She is incredibly blessed to spend her time writing from her favorite chair with her legs curled up under her as she fights the southern heat. When she isn’t writing, she’s either reading, drawing, or sewing, in that order, and most likely thinking about writing as she does.

Karyne Norton hasn’t found the key to time travel, immortality, or infinite lives, so she’s taking a break from nursing and photography to focus on raising four human beings while writing epic fantasy
