A World Apart Release Bash with Meghan Nesmith

Join Meghan Nesmith in celebrating her debut novel on the day of its release, A World Apart! In conversation with co-founders of the Platonic Love newsletter, Aliza Sir and Aja Frost, Meghan will unveil her spellbinding queer romantasy through an evening of forbidden love, faerie bargains, and magic that comes at a price! 

Set in 1866 London, A World Apart follows Kit Finchley, an aspiring magician whose miscast spell opens a doorway into the Veil, a mysterious realm where Wil and his family have been trapped for 800 years. When Kit and Wil fall into an immediate, impossible connection, Kit must risk everything to free the boy between worlds, even if it means defying the Faerie Queen herself. Perfect for fans of Divine Rivals and A Marvellous Light, this enchanting story serves up star-crossed lovers, otherworldly intrigue, and impossible choices, all wrapped up in a limited-time deluxe special edition. 

Tickets include a deluxe edition of A World Apart. Following the conversation, get excited for a meet and greet with the author. Meghan will sign and personalize A World Apart as well as up to two titles brought from home. 

Come celebrate the launch, meet Meghan, and get your hands on this magical new romance!
