Her latest work, The Pardoning, is described as an "atmospheric fantasy that is whimsical, genreblending, and queer." In the land of Pontworth, people work tirelessly to pay off their debts and escape the debtor’s colony of the East. But Bonnie’s debt is beyond repaying. Her only chance lies in the Pardoning, a random drawing that sends one Easterner to the West regardless of what they owe. But Bonnie refuses to enter when winning means leaving behind her girlfriend Indigo. When a crooked king rigs the drawing in Bonnie’s favor, the choice is made for her. Torn from her life–and from Indigo– Bonnie’s transported to the West, a place of magical flowers and incredible luxury where she must navigate scheming sycophants and an unpredictable monarch if she ever wants to see Indigo again.
