Meant to Be cover

The Draconis are a race of unexpected power and ability, complicated by their tendency to ‘match’ with other beings. The trial to decide whether or not they should be exterminated is about to begin, and both sides have gathered some of the brightest minds in the galaxy to argue before the Star Assembly of the Infinitum Government. Everything goes awry, however, when word comes down that High Chancellor Pyotr Kavalerov, staunchest supporter of the Draconis’ right to live, has been assassinated…

Free read! Something Sweet by Megan Derr

Less Than Three Press is pleased to offer a sweet, free New Year’s read: Something Sweet by Megan Derr.

It’s just another day at the candy shop for Sherlock: a quiet afternoon spent more on reading his latest fantasy novel than on selling candy. The kind of day he loves, even if the looming New Year’s Eve leaves him feeling nostalgic and a little lonely. But then the last person he ever expected to see walks through the door of his shop, and Sherlock realizes that some things don’t fade with time, but only grow stronger.  Something Sweet cover

    I have to say I bought Meant to Be last night, read it all (because I just couldn’t stop until I finished it!).. and was wondering if there would be some short stories released. The ending was such a tease! :)

    I downloaded Something Sweet yesterday and just finished reading it. Sometimes it shows that Megan Derr is overworking herself, her stories are like food without salt, like coffee without sugar. They are politely interesting, forced to meet the stereotypes she includes in all her fiction, but there is no signal of the geniality, the amazing feeling, that used to fill every word she wrote.
