Book Description

When a wounded dragon falls from the sky, Claire Evans runs into a cornfield to rescue it. This isn't just any dragon, he's a shifter, one of six royal protectors, and helping him has consequences. Claire finds herself traipsing--or rather, flying--across the kingdom of Dragonwall. She must face Dragonwall's king. King Talon is not like those before him. Troubled and temperamental, he is scarred by more than the events that shaped him. Worst of all, he is mateless. With no queen and no heir, his subjects are demanding he abandon tradition and marry into nobility. There is a rising threat at his borders and whispers of a sorcerer. Soon, he will have greater problems than that of finding a wife. Modern meets medieval in this seven-book series filled with magical creatures and adventure. This epic fantasy is a slow burn romance that follows multiple POVs, woven together around Claire, a small town Indiana gal. If you've ever wondered what it might be like to get sucked into a fantastical world beyond our own, look no further!

What would you do if a dragon fell from the sky? Dragons don't exist, and if they did, they certainly don't fall from the sky. Or do they?

When a dragon crash-lands in her corn field, she goes gallivanting off to rescue it.This incident triggers a chain of events that sweep our heroine into a complicated plot to destroy the kingdom of Dragonwall. Dragonwall is a kingdom unlike any other, with brooding dragons that can turn into men, Sprites who hide within magical forests, greedy Gobelins, and so much more. Lurking in the coldest reaches is a powerful sorcerer whose only desire is to bring about a past long forgotten, a past that favors those of magical blood and condemns those who are not worthy. To achieve these means, he would annihilate an entire species.Claire finds herself thrust into an old-fashioned world similar to those she's grown up reading about, one of fantasy, politics, and intrigue. A lifetime of books hardly prepared her for what is to come. She must face unimaginable difficulties, and in so doing, discover secrets about herself. All the while, there is one obstacle that stands in her way: the King of Dragonwall. Claire needs him on her side if she is to succeed.

Worst of all, he is mateless. With no queen and no heir, his subjects are demanding he abandon tradition and marry into nobility. But with the rising threats upon his borders, Gobelin unrest to the east, and talk of an even darker terror to the north, he will soon have far greater problems than that of finding a wife...

Book Description

Dear Reader, Life is great for me. I have my chicory coffee, my warm beignets, and my best friend on the cell phone. Once the sun goes down, I am the baddest thing prowling the night: I command the elements, and I know no fear. For centuries, I've protected the innocent and watched over the mankind, making sure they are safe in a world where nothing is ever certain. All I want in return is a hot babe in a red dress, who wants nothing more from me then one night. Instead, I get a runaway Mardi Gras float that tries to turn me into roadkill and a beautiful woman who saves my life but can't remember where she put my pants. Flamboyant and extravagant, Sunshine Runningwolf should be the perfect woman for me. She wants nothing past tonight, no ties, no long-term commitments. But every time I look at her, I start yearning for dreams that I buried centuries ago. With her unconventional ways and ability to baffle me, Sunshine is the one person I find myself needing. But for me to love her would mean her death. I am cursed never to know peace or happiness-not so long as my enemy waits in the night to destroy us both. --Talon of the Morrigantes
