Book Description

The exciting first book in Dragon Curse Chronicles – Queen of Ashes – by USA Today Bestselling Author, D.L. Snow Slaying dragons is her only purpose in life… As the lone survivor of a kingdom decimated by dragons, Breanna of the House Moray has one mission…to slay every last fire-breathing piece of filth left on the continent. Five years later and Bre is making good on that vow, until the day she meets the biggest beast she’s ever seen. Unfortunately, a failed attempt to slay the monster leaves Bre half-dead on the doorstep of Lorent Castle, home of Prince Cahill. All Cahill needs to assume the throne is one simple thing: a wife. Oh, and she must be virtuous wife as well as of noble blood. The problem is, every eligible woman has failed the test of purity concocted by the regent as a ruse to keep Cahill from the throne. Thus, he vows that the next maiden to cross his threshold will be his bride and when Breanna appears—injured and reeking of dragon dung—Cahill sees her as his last chance to step into his birthright. Breanna couldn’t be less interested in marriage. It doesn’t matter that Cahill is the strongest man she’s ever met, nor that he—on occasion—makes her smile and forget her past. Damn him! None of that matters because Bre’s got a date with a dragon and as soon as she’s fully recovered, she intends to hunt the beast down and thrust her sword straight through its pea-sized brain. However, after fighting by Cahill's side to repel a dragon attack, Bre finds herself seeing him differently and wanting him in ways she’s never wanted a man before. However, wanting and marrying are two very different things and Breanna has no intention of giving up her freedom. Not to Cahill, not to anyone.
