A note if this book looks and sounds familiar:

You may have read an early version of this novella last Christmas when I sent it out as a gift to my newsletter subscribers! If so, you’re absolutely welcome to copy & paste your original review. No need to read again unless you’d like a fresh dose of dragon holiday charm.


Below, I’ve included the blurb, graphics, and helpful links for when the book goes live in the Amazon store. The preorder/launch price will be just 99 cents, so if you’d like to mention the deal on social media, feel free!


Thank you so much for your time, energy, and thoughtfulness if you choose to review the book. I hope this little holiday story brings some joy and sparkle to your season.


Love,

Sara

P.S. I’ll send out a reminder to review when the book goes live (as well as a form to submit your review links), but please don’t feel pressure to review on the holiday if you’re celebrating. I appreciate your help any time.


P.P.S. If you were expected a Fated Late ARC, please know that the book is coming! I'm a little behind schedule due to a death in the family, but I am working on it with the goal of a December or January release. I can't wait to share it with you!!

Dragon, Actually

A Short, Cozy, Holiday Monster Rom Com


Love makes you do crazy things…like date the dragon who has a Christmas crush on you!


I’m just a small-town girl doing my best to make it in the big city. Between double shifts at the giftwrap counter and pet-sitting my roommate’s moody cat, this holiday season isn’t exactly shaping up to be merry and bright.


But then a gorgeous green dragon walks into my life—or, more accurately, buys every gift in the shop just to talk to me! Myrran is sweet, awkward, and way too charming for his own good (or mine). He says I’m his greatest treasure, and the way he looks at me could melt even the iciest December day.


But being a dragon’s holi-date comes with its own complications, like teaching him how to kiss, managing his overly enthusiastic dragon family, and learning secrets I’m not sure I’m ready to handle. Is this whirlwind romance my happily-ever-after, or will Myrran’s flames burn too hot for a girl like me?


This Christmas, love is in the air…and my new boyfriend is a dragon, actually.


Dragon, Actually is a cozy, fated-mates holiday love story with a dragon hero and a human woman who lights his fire. It’s part of the How I Met My Monster series of monster rom coms!
