A legacy of war. A legacy of love. A legacy of fire. Starting over sucks, but as a Pisces dragon shifter, I go where the Oracle tells me. Right now the stars say Mason Forge needs to be here, slinging coffee in rural Virginia, which means my dragon energy is meant to inspire one of the human residents. Sure, I’d prefer to be a defender of my race like my father, but the Zodiac Brotherhood plays a limited role since the peace accord with the Saint’s Order—the secret society that traditionally hunted my kind. The moment I meet Reagan, I know she’s the reason the stars have guided me to Thornsboro, but the specifics of her secret project are a mystery. When she finally trusts me enough to share that she’s investigating the Saint’s Order, I’m horrified. I’ve been unwittingly helping her uncover the one story that could be a critical threat to my kind. To make things right, I have to leave her. Only, my dragon has chosen Reagan as his mate, and with my inner beast calling the shots, staying away is no longer an option.

What Aries wants, Aries takes! A secret society of dragon killers... From the beginning, dragons have lived among humans, inspiring creativity, innovation, and sometimes revolution. Sent from the stars by the creator, the dragon race thrived until a wealthy medieval nobleman learned their secret. In an effort to protect his riches and position, he formed the Saints Order, a secret society fueled by dark magic and founded on the tenet of eradicating all dragons. A Zodiac dragon warrior sworn to defend his kind... Connor is an Aries dragon and member of the Zodiac Brotherhood, a band of twelve warriors charged with defending their race. Thanks to the sacrifice of one brother over fifty years ago, dragons have enjoyed a period of peace under an accord with the Saint’s Order. But when a civilian is brutally murdered in front of the Fontaine Saint-Michel, it’s clear that the Order is rising once more. A mating bond that is one hell of an inconvenience... Desperate to protect his people, avoid war, and force the Saint’s Order back to the negotiations table, Connor kidnaps the Order grandmaster’s fiancée, washed-up novelist Fiona. But the order isn’t interested in peace talks. Worse, Connor’s inner dragon has chosen Fiona as his mate.
