Did you know that in addition to writing books that the Big5 publish, I’m also a freelance editor? If you’re stuck in a rut querying, editing, or drafting, DM me - I love helping authors (and their books) succeed 🖤

@Frances_Writes @JulesArbeaux Jules and I should get together and rave about this book (which autocorrected to hop when I typed?? The computer knows??)

[Laura R. Samotin @LauraRSamotin]

@JulesArbeaux It issssss 😭🖤

[Laura R. Samotin @LauraRSamotin]

So thrilled to reveal the cover for the final book in the SINS duology - THE LURE OF THEIR GRAVES, in which Dimitri and Vasily are forced to confront old ghosts and a new threat: political enemies-turned-suitors, all coveting Dimitri’s throne and his hand in marriage.

Out 6/3/25

So excited to be able to officially announce that I’m an @angryrobotbooks author and that I wrote a vampire dark academia with my best friend @BenAldersonBook 🖤🩸

We are thrilled to announce the acquisition of THE SHADOWS HAVE TEETH by the incredible duo @BenAldersonBook and @LauraRSamotin 🧛

Coming in 2026, star-crossed vampires linked by a tragic history must decide if vengeance is more important than their twisted love story...
