In the kingdom of Aetherfall, magic is forbidden and dragons are thought to be extinct. Liora Vale is a common born girl with no magic, no title, and no future until a royal decree forces her into a political marriage to secure the kingdoms fragile peace. During the ceremony, an ancient power awakens within her and she discovers she is bound to the last living dragon, a creature whose return could save the realm or destroy it. Prince Kaelen Drayce is the kingdoms most feared dragon slayer and Lioras greatest enemy, yet fate binds him to her survival. Together they must flee as enemies hunt Liora and ancient magic stirs. With war approaching and forbidden attraction growing, Liora must choose between denying her power or embracing a destiny written in flame.
