An exiled princess teams up with the last man she thought she could trust in the start of an immersive debut fantasy series filled with a sizzling reluctant allies-to-lovers romance, a world to get lost in, dangerous quests, and dragon bonds. She is vengeance. He will be her sword. Dragons were myth in Ravaryn until five eggs, long thought fossils, hatched in the presence of Princess Elowen Atarah. Jealous and fearful, King Garrick imprisoned his young daughter while desperately seeking a way to break her soul-bond with the creatures. Many years after a daring rescue freed her, Elowen is now a queen in her own right. She is ready to seek vengeance and save the precious dragons she was forced to leave behind. But to succeed she will need to ally herself with Cayden Veles, the most ruthless commander in the kingdom and her father's sworn enemy. Elowen initially ignores the lure of the charismatic commander but, as the plan to infiltrate King Garrick's castle progresses, both her and Cayden find their growing desire almost impossible to resist. Can their attraction survive a daring life-or-death heist and the looming threat of war?

She is vengeance. He will be her sword. No one in Imirath had ever seen a dragon, until five eggs long thought fossils hatched in the presence of their young princess, Elowen Atarah. Fearing the power his daughter would wield through her soul-bond with the creatures, King Garrick imprisoned her for many years, desperately trying to break the bond that united them, until a daring rescue saved Elowen from his clutches - but left her five precious dragons at his mercy. Years later, Elowen is now a woman determined to free her dragons. Having established a queendom of her own, she is ready to do whatever is necessary to save her people from starvation and seek vengeance against her father. Even if that means leaving the home she built for herself. Or having to align herself with the Commander of Vareveth, Cayden Veles, the most feared and dangerous man in all the kingdoms of Ravaryn and her father's sworn enemy. Cayden promises to help Elowen if she will stand with him and all of Vareveth in the pending war against Imirath. Despite their contrasting motives, Elowen can't ignore their undeniable attraction as together they plot to infiltrate her father's impenetrable castle to steal back her dragons and seek revenge on their common enemy. The pull between Elowen and Cayden becomes impossible to resist, even when trusting each other seems both reckless and essential. But with the threat of war looming over them, the imminent heist will be their most dangerous adventure yet.
