A dragon rider. An imprisoned elf. A deadly affliction. When Calder Becket is assigned to the dungeons instead of the skies with his beloved dragon Ash, he’s disturbed by the torture he discovers in the darkness of Fangward. As he tends to the elf prisoner and learns about a missing princess, duty and conscience begin to war for control of his heart. Meanwhile, something is driving the dragons mad. And it may not be a natural affliction. Calder’s sister, Maeve, will do anything to save her dragon flight, but what if discovering the truth means she must leave her husband?

Everly Haywood imagines herself to be a shieldmaiden of great prowess…but you’re more likely to find her in a dusty library than on the battlefield slaying monsters from the underworld. She seeks to combine dark fantasy worlds with clean, sweet romance. She loves strong but sweet leading ladies and smoldering, tragic heroes, and if a dragon is thrown into the mix? That’s nearly perfection. When she isn’t writing, Everly creates lovelies for her cover design business, homeschools her prissy Princess-in-the-Pea, and advocates for her special-needs Warrior Princess. She and her Knight in Shining Armor live in the country with their two daughters and their protective dog nanny. Happy reading, and may your dragons fly true.
