With the Final Guild Trial hurtling toward me—and the Harbingers' shadow looming ever closer—my training has become a brutal race against time.

Surviving means mastering my bond with Thalon, my legendary dragon partner, while navigating the deadly politics of the Guild, where more than a few people would rather see me fail . . . or dead.

But the trials inside the Guild aren't the only ones testing me. The men in my life—my protectors, my challengers, my greatest temptations—are impossible to ignore. Mason's steady strength draws me in like a safe harbor in the storm, but the fire between us is anything but calm.

And then there are the others—dangerous, magnetic, and irresistible—all of them pushing me, unraveling me, and setting my heart and body alight. Keeping my feelings—and my desires—in check? Not a chance.

With enemies circling and my every move under scrutiny, failure isn't an option. To survive the Final Trial—and claim my place as the first human Dragon Rider—I'll need to embrace the fire within, defy the odds stacked against me, and prove that the bonds I've forged are stronger than the forces trying to tear us apart.

The Guild isn't ready for me.
