As mysteries unravel, danger intensifies, and dragons soar in the sky. When Avera is captured by the Emperor of Merisu, her quest to reclaim her throne and prevent an evil entity from escaping its magical prison fails. Or so she thinks. Emperor Titus claims he wants to be Avera’s ally, but can she trust him? The rumors of his depravity and tyranny appear to be false. The man she meets is courteous, handsome, and seemingly beloved by his people. Would marrying him be so bad? Along with his offer to make her his consort, he’s been teasing her with dragon lore. He believes hatching the eggs she retrieved is their best option. Avera isn’t convinced, though. She’s seen the catastrophic damage caused by a single dragon in Verlora. Freeing four more dragons could lead to wide-scale catastrophe. At the same time, the mighty beasts might be the only hope they have to preserve their way of life—if they can convince them to help. Time is running out, and as secrets become exposed, hard decisions must be made. Will Avera make the ultimate sacrifice to save the world? Get ready for the stunning conclusion to Swords & Tiaras, an action-packed magical and epic fantasy adventure.
