Blending heart, adventure, magik and ancient reckonings, the Octavia books explore what it means to step into your own strength while staying connected to what matters most.

At their core, they are stories about family, friendship, courage and the fire we carry within us – even when the path ahead feels dark and uncertain.

LIFE off the page

Bex lives on the Gold Coast in Australia with her teenage sons, Hux and Nate, and two extremely opinionated cats, Rocky and Puss.

When she’s not writing, building businesses or plotting character reckonings, she’s usually opening her house to the local tribe of teenagers, watching heart-filled anime with her boys and surviving Rocky’s constant bids for attention.
