Of Flames and Fallacies

A bond and a prophecy can bring a kingdom to its knees. 

Possession of dragon contraband in the Arterian kingdom guarantees one thing: a brutal execution.


When twenty-two-year-old Katerina Blackwind finds a dragon egg buried in her father’s grave, her world begins to unravel. She’s tasked with returning the forbidden dragon hatchling—Daeja—north to the secretive Dragon Lands where dragons roam free and a rebellion group resides. 


But she can’t do it on her own. Smuggling a dragon hatchling across the realm during a war between Arterians and rebels means she can be killed by either side. She knows there’s only one person she can truly trust—her old flame, Cole Ashbourne.


Yet, Cole is much different than the last time Kat saw him: deliciously chiseled in all the right places with a raw power lingering beneath the surface. Cole is torn between his responsibilities as a newly-promoted Captain in the King’s military and his heart.


Kat works on a plan to get Daeja to the Dragon Lands while keeping a low profile at one of the King’s military outposts. Though, having a room next to the sinisterly provocative and kingdom’s best swordsman, Darian Raventhorn, proves to be anything but easy.


Danger lurks at every turn and as more secrets are unearthed, Kat is left to question everything she thought she knew about dragons, her family, love, and the kingdom.
