On a mission to discover the truth about an orphaned baby ice dragon, Joleyn wonders what in the world she's doing? She's a nobody. A farm-raised spinster of no importance. Her friendship with the ice dragon, Lady Esselyn, seems like her only qualification for inclusion on a high-level mission like this.
Guard Captain Jimnel of Valdis can't wait to see what life is like for the Dragon Knights in fabled Draconia. He's excited to be included in the group going to make contact with that far off land and he's even more pleased that the lovely Joleyn is along for the ride. He's been attracted to her for a long time, but until now, he hasn't really been sure how to approach her.
Thrown together on their journey, they finally allow the simmering attraction between them to come to a boil. How things will work out in the end is still up in the air and dependent on their two dragon friends and a tiny lost soul with his taloned foot in both worlds.
It is the baby ice dragon, Tor, adopted by the King and Queen of Draconia, who will decide more than just his own fate. If he chooses to deny the adult ice dragons, there just might be war the likes of which the lands have never seen, pitting dragon against dragon. But how can he forsake the family that took him in and loved him when he was all alone? He's facing a tough decision and no matter what he finally decides, the lands will never be the same. . .

Enemies to lovers and second chances seem almost beyond reach, but with the help of a meddling dragon, true love might just prevail over the evil that has shadowed Loralie all her life.
A woman of mystery. . . and danger. . .
The hereditary Guardian of the Citadel, Loralie, has a lot to answer for. She has done terrible things with her power on behalf of evil men who kidnapped her daughter. Loralie's powerful magic is being used against her will, and the protections she's been bred to uphold are failing, one by one.
A man she once loved and thought lost forever. . .
Detlif is Captain of the Guard of the fair folk enclave that guards one of the Gates to the Citadel. He gave up on love when Loralie left suddenly, without so much as a goodbye. When she showed up nine months later and gave him his infant son, then disappeared again, he imagined all sorts of cruel things about her. But there's a lot he didn't know about his former lover. A lot that stands between them, including a twin daughter that he has only just learned about.
A meddling dragon. . .
When the red dragon offers a chance to break the magical chains binding the girl, Loralie sends her precious daughter to be with her twin. . . and their father. With her daughter safe, Loralie can focus on revenge and stopping the evil plot that threatens all the lands. But she doesn't count on Detlif having a say in her activities.
Loralie believes only her death will make up for the misery she has caused. She'd thought she was reconciled to her fate, but seeing Det again makes her wish for more time. With him. With their children.
Det knows Lora has done awful things, but as he begins to understand why, he tries to find a way to create a happy ending for her. . . for their children. . . and for himself, as well. It's going to be tricky, and very, very dangerous, but he must not fail. He wants Loralie for keeps this time, and nothing will stop him from achieving that goal.
