Dragon.
Warrior. Woman.
To honor her
brother’s dying plea, Vayl Halifex carries a message that might prevent war
with the elves: the location of their captive princess. Fortune and
circumstance align in her favor and Vayl’s life is forever changed when an
opportunity arises that only she can seize. With the help of a matchmaker, she
becomes the emperor’s newest concubine. The new role affords her unfettered
access to the gilded mountain stronghold, where the princess is rumored to be
hidden away.
But she won’t
take this risk alone. Her brother’s best friend, dragon warrior Estin, calls on
the small army of elven assassins he leads to use their magic and might to
flank her for the fight to come. The band of dragons takes Vayl into their fold
and trains her as best they can before she’s whisked away to the palace.
Unbeknownst to
the warriors, a dreadful magic simmers in the gilded fortress. With those
fiercely protective of the emperor closing in, and the dragon assassins
disappearing one by one, Vayl’s chance at escape narrows to a sliver, along
with her hope of finding the princess or fighting her way out of the palace.
With her heart entwined with that of the dragon warrior she was never supposed
to love, she begins to fear the price of her treachery will be her life… or
his.
Mulan meets The
Hundredth Queen in this romantic epic fantasy, perfect for fans of the Throne
of Glass series and These Hollow Vows.
“Riveting
until the very last page.” – A. Lonergan, award-winning author of the
Crimson Pack Trilogy.
Casey Bond lives on a rural farm in West Virginia with her husband and their two beautiful daughters. She writes phoenixes – gloriously flawed and morally gray characters that fiercely rise from the ashes of their circumstances. World building is one of her favorite hobbies, along with stamping metal jewelry, swimming, and enjoying the beauty of nature. She thinks thunderstorms are better than coffee and that watching a meteor shower is the closest thing to magic you might ever see. She’s a firm believer that every amazing book needs a world you want to wrap yourself in, a character you want to win, and a love you would fight for.
Casey is the award-winning author of When Wishes Bleed, Gravebriar, and House of Eclipses.
