To unleash her dragon, she must confront her past. In the seven years since Amaleigh failed to assassinate her best friend, she’s been on the run. Jumping from world to world where she never quite fits in, all she truly wants is to stop running and find a place to call home. Unlocking her cold, dead heart might be a start to unleashing her inner dragon, but that would mean trusting another and there’s only one person she’s ever trusted—the same man she couldn’t kill. Prince Gwilym knows he shouldn’t risk Amaleigh’s life by asking for help, especially since he’s the reason she had to escape Eidyn. They grew up together as best friends, innocent of the knowledge it was Gwilym’s father who murdered her family and left her an orphan to live on the streets. Now his life is in peril and she’s the only person he trusts. Time’s running out for Gwilym and his father. Amaleigh’s future hangs in the balance. Forced to make a desperate choice, she must put aside her hatred for the man who murdered her family and sentenced her to a life of crime and loneliness. Dare she risk everything and return to the one place she tried desperately to forget? To save those she loves, she must become the Dragon Mage the king fears most.
