At a Glance

Book two of the Chaosborn trilogy—read Heart of Chaos first. Madeleine Eliot has been dubbed the Queen of Cozy Romantasy for good reason: she balances high-stakes Norse-inspired fantasy with genuinely warm character moments. The dragon-shifter bond is the standout element, adding psychic and physical intimacy layers that elevate the romance beyond standard fated mates fare. Released February 2026, so still finding its audience.
