Synopsis
MAGIC AWAKENS. DARKNESS SWELLS. AND A HERO RISES. It’s been a year since Tamsyn transformed from the enemy in Fell’s bed to the wife he sacrificed himself to save. From an ordinary girl to Penterra’s best hope to keep magic from disappearing forever. With Fell torn from her side in the dangerous swirling mists of the Crags, Tamsyn is alone among the dragon pride. An outsider learning to survive in her new home, she trains until her muscles burn and her blood spills. And slowly, a warrior emerges. But is Fell truly beyond Tamsyn’s reach? Their bond pulls at her, as does the fierce drive to protect both humans and dragonkind from a relentless enemy determined to destroy her – and all magic. Magic stirs in the darkness, strengthening all who believe in it. But will it be enough to save the pride, the kingdom, and a love fated to endure for centuries? In this explosive sequel to the Sunday Times bestselling A Fire in the Sky , the fate of magic rests on one warrior’s shoulders – but it could cost her everything … 🔥 Fated mates 🔥 Magic, dragons, and witches 🔥 Spice
