Book Blurb:
What’s better than a book boyfriend? The voice actor who narrates him.
Raven Lovelace lives for success – her financial firm at the forefront leaves no room for distractions. Especially not the kind that comes with a voice that could melt steel and awakens desires people didn’t know they had. When everything is going as planned, a new client catches Raven’s attention. He’s everything she isn’t supposed to want – younger, laid back, and sounds exactly like the audiobook narrator she can’t get out of her head.
Ryan Mitchell never expected his online voice content as “Zander Kane” would become his career. One viral romance audiobook later, he’s the hottest in the industry – but he realizes his popularity might not last forever. A search result and a phone call later, he finds himself transfixed on his financial advisor, the one woman who can’t let herself fall apart at the sound of his voice.
What starts as a virtual flirtation spirals into an obsessive passion neither of them expected. Ghosts from Raven’s past lurk in the shadows, threatening to destroy everything she’s built – including her relationship with Ryan. But Ryan isn’t the only one veiled behind a mask, and the truth could cost them everything.

Review:
When her favorite voice actor ends up as her client... the last thing she expects is that he's just as obsessed with her as she is with him. This book was SO DELICIOUS. Every single chapter, every single twist and turn, every single MOMENT between the main couple was just so so good. I am completely head over heals for this book. I can't wait to read the rest of this author's work. The romance and slight suspense had me so engrossed and turning the pages. I can't get enough of it. It's the perfect blend of spice and suspense with tons of super steamy scenes. Seriously, I have now made this author an auto-read for myself. Moniker was such a love letter to voice actors and audiobook narrators; it was just so well done and thought out. I had a wonderful time!

I had fun drawing this, very interesting to draw for me personally.
ALBUM COVER ART CONTEST
Hey paisanos! I'm excited to announce that Moniker's VS theme will be releasing very soon.
If you've been following along, you might know that Pizza Tower: Zipped Up! is my concept for a playable Moniker mod that I've mainly been working on the soundtrack for. You can listen to it here! 👇
PT:ZU!
In honor of the release of Wreckempense, I'll be hosting an art contest for its album cover!
The art can be whatever you want, as long as it pertains to Pizza Tower & Moniker!
Some context on Moniker's in-game character, if it helps: He takes The Noise's place in the game, code-wise (so as Peppino, you fight Moniker; as Moniker, you fight Mob Moniker), both as a player and as a boss. He's essentially The Noise resprited. Instead of a skateboard, he has a motorcycle, and instead of bombs, he throws a vinyl record (the same way Kung Lao uses his hat in MK11). Otherwise his boss fight is almost parallel to The Noise with a few exceptions!
Ways to submit art: Reblog this post with your art, OR @ me in a new post with the art, OR tag the post #wreckempense.
Go crazy with it. I'm excited to see what y'all submit! Contest closes December 14th, 2025 13:00 EST.
You know you're in deep when your sona has AU versions of itself
