As we welcome 2026, I’m excited to begin the year with exciting news: my new novel, Heritage Mountain, is now available! Filled with adventure, romance, and a touch of mystery, it’s the story of a world where the mystical and the actual coexist to the benefit of all.
Early readers have already embraced the story with warmth and enthusiasm. Kirkus Reviews writes, “Black’s latest tale offers a delightful romp through a magical forest, brimming with charm, adventure, and romance… and foregrounds a genuine concern for environmental conservation that’s sure to resonate with many readers.”
Literary Titan says, ““…a gentle, enchanting read full of heart, hidden magic, and unforgettable charm...the supernatural just slips in like a whisper. Nothing is overexplained or flashy. And that makes it feel real.”
And Readers’ Favorite calls it, “…a richly woven tale blending archaeology, magic, and mystical creatures within the majestic Adirondack wilderness.”

May the world’s hidden magic find its way into your life, bringing smiles and surprises throughout 2026.
