About

Lillia pictured here making the ooh face. She never wanted to be a Fairy Doctor, but is stuck with the job. What's a girl to do? Be curious, I say.

Hi I’m Ava Clary

I write captivating new adult fantasy and young adult adventure novels with romance and other ridiculousness (on purpose, of course).

I create imaginative worlds based on places I’ve traveled (the UK, Netherlands, and most recently Portugal.) They linger in my heart and I hope they do in yours too. Join me on these journeys of woven fate, daring romance, and unforgettable adventures!

Like the Fairy Doctor Series, which debuted with Fairy Doctor Falls in Love, set in a glamorous Singapore filled with magical creatures, Book 1 follows Lillia during a hectic engagement. Or you can head to a strange snowy London for the prequel called Fairy Doctor Returns, where we discover how Lillia’s parents met each other. Before long, you’ll arrive at the mysterious island of Brimclif in the North Sea and then head off to Paris during the second book in the series, Fairy Doctor In Disguise for some ill-advised museum activities. The final book in the series is called Fairy Doctor Rest in Peace and it’s coming soon. (Promise! Better late than never!)

But wait, there’s more!

I wrote a limited-release Kindle Vella about a monster-hunting Academy in an alternate world, called The Thorn Path. Keep an eye out for a future re-release.

My upcoming releases include an epic YA fantasy about dragon racing. A forbidden romance between elves from rival tribes (a little bit of Lord of the Rings meets Romeo and Juliet) and in 2025 I’m finally going to start writing rom-coms in space. That’s my dream. I want to be the kind of author that can say, I write romantic comedy for sci-fi and fantasy fans. Let’s make it happen. (I better get back to writing!)
