HEART OF THE DRAGON KING

Elara Ashford, 23, has been living a lie her entire life. She was brought up as Princess of Veridia, wearing silk and jewels, and she believes she has royal blood in her veins. However, when a marriage alliance insists that she marry the dreaded Dragon King of the North in order to stop war, her adopted family reveals the terrible truth: she was born with the real princess. She is merely the daughter of a commoner, a stand-in for the legitimate heir who was concealed for her "protection." Elara is now being sent to her death with a single, unachievable task: either make the monster fall in love with her or her real family, the commoners who abandoned her, will be put to death for treason. The Northern Kingdom is a real-life nightmare. Towers of obsidian are circled by dragons. In courtyards, Fae warriors hone their blades. In dimly lit hallways, witches murmur. And in charge of it all is Kael Draven, the ancient and deadly Dragon King, whose touch burns like dragonfire, whose amber eyes see through every lie, and whose court keeps a watchful eye on the frail human bride like wolves circling wounded prey. Elara anticipated a monster. She discovers a king who is plagued by centuries-old curses, haunted by betrayal, and frantically searching for his fated mate, whom he believes will break the curse that is slowly killing his people. He believes that *she* is a bond. She's not his mate, though. Wearing a stolen crown, she is a fraud. Elara learns that people have been lying about the North for generations as she makes her way through assassination attempts, lethal court politics, and a developing fascination with the dragon who could burn her with a single breath. Humans have betrayed the "monsters." And centuries ago, a human princess betrayed Kael himself, bringing a curse upon his entire kingdom. Elara's world falls apart when the real Princess Seraphine is found—beautiful, gifted with magic, and Kael's *actual* fated mate. Kael and Seraphine's mate bond is unquestionably ancient and ignites instantly. Elara ought to move aside. Let fate do its thing. However, Seraphine didn't have to spend months gaining the dragon warriors' trust. didn't put her life in danger to lift old curses. didn't fall in love with a monarch who taught her that monsters are created, not born. Elara is faced with an impossible decision after learning that Seraphine is a part of a plot to overthrow the Northern Kingdom from within and that the "true princess" is the real danger to the precarious peace: – Lose Kael to his true love and expose Seraphine. – Keep quiet and watch the kingdom she has come to love burn. – Fight for a love that wasn't supposed to be hers. Because bloodlines aren't always important to the heart. Sometimes love is forged in dragonfire rather than in the stars. Furthermore, the girl who wore a stolen crown, Elara Ashford, is set to demonstrate that fate isn't the most potent form of magic. It's a decision.

Letters Through Time

Elena Moreau thought she'd lost everything. Betrayed by her fiancé and her own sister, stripped of her family's antique restoration business, and left penniless in the city that once knew her as an heiress—she's surviving on scraps and spite. Her only escape is exploring abandoned historical sites, searching for beautiful forgotten things to remind her she still exists. That's when she finds the first letter, tucked inside a crumbling 18th-century music box in an old estate. It's written in perfect script, addressed to "whoever finds this," and signed only with "A." The words are hauntingly beautiful, desperately lonely, and impossible to ignore. She writes back. She doesn't expect an answer. But the next week, there's a new letter waiting in a different hidden place—a hollow brick in an ancient cathedral, a false bottom in a vintage trunk. Someone is reading her words. Someone is responding. Someone who writes like they've been alone for lifetimes and knows the architecture of every century like they lived through it. His name is Adrian Thorne. He's been cursed with immortality for 847 years, unable to die, watching everyone he's ever loved turn to dust. He can't risk connection—everyone who gets close to him either dies tragically or ages while he remains frozen at thirty-two. The letters were supposed to be messages to the void, a way to feel less alone without the danger of attachment. But Elena's words awakened something he thought died centuries ago: hope. When they finally meet face-to-face, the truth unravels. Adrian isn't just immortal—he's cursed to bring misfortune to anyone he loves. And Elena isn't just a betrayed heiress—she's the descendant of the witch who cursed him, and her bloodline holds the only key to breaking his eternal prison. Now Elena must choose: walk away and protect herself from a love that's survived centuries but could destroy her, or risk everything to break a curse, defy her treacherous family, and prove that some loves are worth the wait—even if it takes forever.
