Story of the month: April

April is here, and that means it’s time to announce our next Illumi-Naughty Story Sippers book of the month!

This month, we’ll be diving into When the Moon Hatched by Sarah A. Parker. This is the first book in the Moonfall series, and has been all over TikTok in the last year. We might be late to the game, but with nearly 200,000 readers already swept up in its magic, it’s finally time to crack the spine on this one. Plus, the second book in the series is set to release later this year. So if you’ve been holding off, consider this your sign to get reading!

This book might be perfect for you if you like:

  • Dragons

  • Sharp-tongued heroines who don’t wait to be rescued

  • Morally-grey heroes

  • Epic world-building with a fresh, elemental magic system

  • Twists, betrayals, and slow burns

If you’re still feeling the Onyx Storm hangover and want another fantasy that blends danger, desire, and dragons, grab your copy and join us for this month’s read!

Why we chose it

This isn’t just another fantasy romance. It’s a lush, high-stakes world of dragons, rebellion, elemental powers, and two deeply compelling protagonists on a collision course with fate, and each other. Think razor-sharp banter, powerful world-building, and a slow-burning love that scorches through the pages.

Raeve is a deadly blade for the rebellion, Kaan is a tormented king on a hunt for answers, and when their paths cross… well, let’s just say it’s not all moonlight and roses. But it is deliciously intense.

Whether you’re in it for the dragons, the magic, the political intrigue, or the heat between Raeve and Kaan, there’s something for every Story Sipper.

We can’t wait to see what you think. Join the Fable group and share your reactions, theories, and/or favorite quotes with fellow readers as the story unfolds!
