Why Read This?The one-sentence sell. What do you get for showing up to this book, even when it's hard?
A clever guild leader who refuses to be sidelined proposes marriage to a mountain warrior for political gain — then discovers the alliance runs deeper than strategy. Clean romance with rich worldbuilding and dragons.
Synopsis
Will a marriage of convenience secure her power and keep her secret safe? Against all odds, clever Dulciya Lutelyn succeeded her late father as head of the Miners Guild, second only to the Queen herself in power. But with war brewing to the west and unrest among Dulci’s miners, keeping her position will be challenging. When the wildwood warrior who rules the mountains that hold her mines turns up at her door, requesting her aid, she sees an ally strong enough to shore up her support and proposes a marriage of convenience. She will help him convince her people to join the fighting; he will help her convince her miners that she is someone to be respected. If she keeps him at arm’s length, he’ll never discover the secret that would destroy everything her father built. The seer foretold that the recent widower Kadan Asanji, Khan of the High Peak, will be key to protecting his people and winning this unjust war so long as he weds again despite his shuttered heart. He was to find a lady of the fire. Between Dulci’s fiery red hair and determination to protect the miners, she might fit that description. Yet there’s something more simmering inside her that calls to him. Could she have a power that could save them all? With enemies drawing nearer on all sides, Dulci and Kadan must learn to open their hearts and trust each other. For a conflagration is coming, and only a lady of the fire and her mate will be able to stop it. If you like closed door, swoon-worthy fantasy romance—featuring intelligent, determined heroines and untameable, honorable heroes; dual points of view (hers and his); and a happily-ever-after with ongoing world conflict—in a land designed to sweep you away, grab this story perfect for fans of Kenley Davidson, K.M. Shea, JA Andrews, and Tara Grayce.
