It's Only Words is a collection of poetry and prose pulled from the exhilarating heights and bittersweet depths of love and loss. There are words within that floated free, helium-filled, and then there are those that came up with roots, dripping blood. But they are all written, all remembered. Twenty-six letters, arranged and rearranged, to somehow hold so much.
I Wrote You a Poem (I Wrote You Every Poem) is Kristina Mahr's sophomore poetry collection, picking up the themes explored in It's Only Words but carrying them even further, even deeper, to the outer stretches of love and heartbreak. Let me tell you how wide it is, let me tell you how deep it is. Endless in both directions.
Invisible to the man she loves, Reeve Lennox fights to reclaim him from a dark world. As her wedding day nears in Acarsaid, her betrothed Arden offers only his wayward soul and saucy tongue. At night she desperately tries to reach Bran, the young soldier of nightmarish Tenebris who holds her heart. However, her king insists that the realms of Tenebris and Acarsaid must remain separate, lest the evil wizard Rancore brutally conquer all. But the dark magic of Tenebris defies mere distance. A war is coming, one only Reeve may be able to prevent, if she can reunite her family on opposing sides. With two kingdoms at stake, Reeve must discover her strength and her family's legacy before all is lost. Yet righting the wrongs of the past may require the sacrifice of her truest love.
Every night, seventeen-year-old Reeve Lennox finds herself under a noose. By day she is a lady of Acarsaid's royal house, daydreaming of adventure and love. But every night in sleep she wanders through a nightmarish city, an invisible witness to the screeches of monsters and the screams of their victims. Her only consolation is Bran, a battle-torn young man with a selfless heart and eyes that reflect the stars. Yet while Reeve falls deeper into her dreams, in truth she is engaged to Arden, a mercurial nobleman who has long been cured of his belief in love and breathes fire and flattery like other people breathe air. Torn between two lives, Reeve struggles to remember what's real. Until night and day collide, with a revelation that threatens all of Acarsaid.
We are quiet, but we are not out of things to say. Anyway, I Reach is a poetic journey through the hills and valleys of love and its aftermath. In her third poetry collection, Kristina Mahr holds her heart up to the light yet again and allows the reader to feel each pulse and see each scar. And it is that light which shines through the darkness and guides the way to hope.
The trouble is, it stops being a dreamonce it comes true.It becomes something thatcan leave you.In her latest collection, The Audacity of Heartbreak, Kristina Mahr weaves grief and sadness in with hope and joy over the course of over 200 poems in a true exploration of what it means to both live and love in this world.

If you have loved, and if you have lost, you won't want to miss this collection.
A collection of over 400 poems spanning five years of love and loss, heartbreak and healing. You could call these Kristina Mahr's greatest hits, and it would be true in more than one way - these are the greatest hits a heart can take.
This is the story of The Lonely Penguin, born from a place of brokenness. When all hope is scarce there appears one final path to self-discovery.
From the author of I Find You In the Darkness, a brand-new book of poetry celebrating strong women and the men they crave I never needed a Man. I needed a Viking. I needed someone who wasn't afraid of my strengths or of my needs. I chose wrong in the past.... Beloved contemporary poet Alfa is back with a brand-new collection of more than 180 heartfelt poems on the theme of woman warriors and the masculine heroes they long for. In gorgeous, compelling, and intimate prose, I Needed a Viking takes us on an emotional journey of a woman searching for strength in the midst of a storm.
Sometimes I think love is a thorn burrowed beneath my skin, too deep to pull back out. (Other times it's something softer.) Something Softer is an exploration of the return to hope, a gaining of strength and insight, a heartbeat of a journey with highs and lows, but never any flatlines. In her fourth poetry collection, Kristina Mahr lines her words with more petals than thorns, choosing to look upon both love and heartbreak with a softness, an appreciation. It is life, and it is ours. We have the choice to overcome. We have the choice to make it beautiful.
