Valerie Bowen’s short fiction includes two standalone works of fantasy and paranormal romance. Faerie Wishes (2011) follows Talia Saturnfrost, a young woman living in a forest realm who grows tired of her world and falls in love with a human named Cayden. When she leaves the faerie world to be with him, she learns that wishes carry consequences. It is a clean paranormal romance with no explicit content.
Kaslyne’s Story (2012) is a young readers chapter book set in a similar fantasy world. The two works show different sides of Bowen’s writing, from romance aimed at adult readers to fiction for younger audiences, both rooted in faerie mythology and magic.
Bowen is also known for her longer fiction, including the For the Sake of Amelia series, which deals with heavier themes. These shorter works offer a lighter entry point into her writing.
