Val’s Song Is Here: The Bound Flame Has Landed

By

Every world has a heartbeat.
Every dragon has a song.
And today, I finally get to share one of the most meaningful pieces of the Dragon Queen universe with you.

✨ Val’s theme, The Bound Flame, is now live on all major streaming platforms.

This is more than a soundtrack. It is a story set to music. It is the pulse of a dragon haunted by corruption, bound by destiny, and tethered to Jasmine through fire and fate. It is the sound of wings beating in the dark and a soul fighting to stay free.

When I first imagined Val, I heard her long before I saw her.
Her power.
Her grief.
Her loyalty.
Her rage.

I knew she needed a theme that captured the ancient, aching, burning heart of a dragon queen’s companion. Something that felt like flame and shadow, like myth and memory, like a cry across realms.

Thanks to you, that song exists.

This community helped bring the Dragon Queen world to life in so many ways, from the special editions to the lore to the emotional resonance that lives in every chapter. Now, the music is part of that legacy too, and I cannot thank you enough.

✨ Please listen. Please share. Help spread the fire.
Your support turns a single spark into a blaze.

Whether you are writing, reading, dreaming, or soaring through your day, I hope this song carries you deeper into the heart of Val’s journey.

Thank you for being part of this magic.
There is more music coming. More lore. More fire.

Stay tuned, dragonheart. The world is growing.

Tina Glasneck Launches New Romantasy, A Dragon’s Queen, Blending Dragons, Fae Courts, and Forbidden Love

Author shares how the magnetic stage energy of Stray Kids’ Felix added nuance to her fae prince Callen Blackthorne, a character already built to captivate romantasy fans.

RICHMOND, Va. – Oct. 1, 2025 — USA Today bestselling author Tina Glasneck is set to captivate romantasy readers with her forthcoming release, A Dragon’s Queen, the first book in The Dragon Queen Trilogy. A sweeping romantasy of dragons, danger, and desire, A Dragon’s Queen follows Jasmine as she is thrust into the perilous intrigues of the Unseelie Court. She must prove her worth in brutal magical trials—all while resisting her dangerous attraction to Callen Blackthorne, the fae prince whose shadowed past could either save her or destroy everything she loves.

Glasneck reveals that Callen’s piercing, ethereal presence was enhanced by the magnetic stage energy Felix brings to performances like “Maniac.”

“I was introduced to K-pop through a friend, and soon found myself with Stray Kids on repeat while writing,” Glasneck shares. “There’s even a phrase on TikTok—the ‘Felix Effect’—that perfectly captures the charisma I wanted for Callen. Art inspires art, and writers are no different. I had already built Callen. However, watching Felix perform sparked new layers of nuance and presence that I was able to season into the character. I am so proud of this three-dimensional fae prince who remains entirely his own.”

Blending lush worldbuilding, political intrigue, and slow-burn romance, A Dragon’s Queen will appeal to fans of Fourth Wing and A Court of Thorns and Roses. With dragons bound by ancient magic and a heroine navigating deadly trials in the Unseelie Court, the novel delivers danger, desire, and mythic stakes in equal measure.

About A Dragon’s Queen
In this darkly enchanting romantasy, Jasmine must navigate deadly magical trials in the heart of the Unseelie Court. Stripped of certainty and hunted by those who fear her power, she faces impossible choices—especially when it comes to Callen Blackthorne, the brooding fae prince whose shadowed past could either save her or shatter the realm itself.

Press Release: The Rebirth

By

Richmond, VA – USA Today bestselling author and rising artist Tina Glasneck released her debut EP, The Rebirth, a mesmerizing collection of emotional tracks that take listeners on a captivating journey. 

Filled with raw and powerful vocals, thought-provoking lyrics, and heart-wrenching melodies, The Rebirth showcases Glasneck’s incredible range and artistic vision.

The Rebirth features six heartfelt tracks that showcase Glasneck’s unique blend of melodic and hauntingly beautiful vocals and thought-provoking lyrics. From the upbeat “Rock Shark” to the soul-stirring ballad “Love and Loss,” each track offers a powerful message of resilience and determination. Created to provide readers an even more immersive experience with her forthcoming book, Make Me Howl, Glasneck says that she “wrote the music to have a new way for readers to connect with her fiction world, and the story’s paranormal romance.”

Glasneck is truly a renaissance woman, braiding her talent for storytelling into her music. She is especially proud of the first single released, “Vibe with Me,” which started off as a poem, and is one she included in the actual story of the Make Me Howl, set to release in January 2023.

“I poured my heart and soul into these songs while connecting with these fictional characters,” Glasneck said of the EP. “I want people to feel something when they listen to them, and to be inspired to keep pushing forward no matter what challenges they face.”

Glasneck’s emotive vocals and powerful lyrics have already caught the attention of music critics and fans alike. With the release of The Rebirth, she is poised to make a big impact on the music scene.

“Haunting emotions, unrequited love and heartache, the perfect recipe for the last teen mellow drama, or angst-ridden motion picture,” said Kristen Mondo, a freelance music reviewer about Glasneck’s “Vibe with Me.” “[It] truly seems to be the example of musical prose. [Glasneck’s] music will appeal to lovers of pop, pop/rock, movie soundtracks and teen pop.”

The Rebirth is available now on all major streaming platforms. Don’t miss your chance to experience the emotional journey of Tina Glasneck’s The Rebirth.

Behind-the-Music: Love and Loss

By

We deserve to be loved and there is nothing wrong with walking away from a situation that doesn’t give you what you need.

As you know, I bleed on the page – be it with books or even in my music.

As I created this soundtrack for my book world, I wanted to deal with something that we don’t always talk about… unrequited love.

I wrote the song ‘Love and Loss’ to explore the pain and heartache of unrequited love. My characters take me on eye-opening journeys for sure. This rock ballad weeps emotion as it grapples with the idea that sometimes, love isn’t enough.

Through powerful and heartfelt lyrics, ‘Love and Loss’ captures the raw and vulnerable emotions of longing and loss. It speaks to the pain and frustration of loving someone who doesn’t love you back, and the realization that sometimes, no matter how hard you try, you can’t make someone love you.

But ‘Love and Loss’ is more than just a sad song – it’s a reminder that even in the darkest moments, there is hope. It’s a reminder that we are strong enough to survive heartbreak and that we can find the strength to move on and heal.

I hope that ‘Love and Loss’ will resonate with anyone who has ever experienced the pain of unrequited love, and that it will provide some comfort and solace in their journey toward healing and hope.

Listen to ‘Love and Loss’ now and let its emotive rock melodies and powerful lyrics take you on a journey of love, loss, and the power of resilience.

Many of the tracks on the CD remind me of what you’d hear on a CW drama like The Vampire Diaries, music filled with “haunting emotions, unrequited love and heartache, the perfect recipe…for a teen mellow drama, or angst-ridden motion picture.”

Love and Loss

By

There is always a behind-the-music story about how a track comes to be. It is not always as simple as pricking a finger and bleeding on the page. In this case, it is truly diving into the soul and creating from nothing more than a feeling.

One of my favorite tracks from The Rebirth EP is ‘Love and Loss.’

This song came to me one Sunday, and I couldn’t get it out of my head. It was as if the universe was speaking to me. I found myself humming it.

Creating it took me on this emotional journey.

I, however, require what I call the spark!

Everyone has a process to create. For me, the true test is whether the idea sticks. If it isn’t a fleeting idea but continues to show up, that is the spark.

As a creative soul, I create daily, be it while writing my personal books, plot doctoring, marketing and copywriting, or songwriting. Everything has to have a hook to take flight or come crashing back to the ground. It has to compel me, cause me to feel someone, or even see something.

This one was very different from other songs, even the process because it all came together in indescribable ways. I sang it so much around the house before recording that it became a constant. Humming it while cooking dinner, recalling the lyrics while singing in the shower.

But this is just the beginning.

We’ve been on this creative journey and I’m not ready to quit anytime soon.

So, if you haven’t downloaded, saved, or streamed The Rebirth, give it a listen and feel the raw emotions.
