Publisher's Synopsis
For centuries, the Drakoryans have taken sacrificial maidens. As a village widow, I thought myself safe from the dominant men of this dragon shifter race.
I was wrong.
I am Thera the Healer, and I blame the Drakoryans for the death of my husband and father. I know in my heart that they would be alive today were it not for the greed and cruelty of our dragon overlords. Now as war begins between the Drakoryans and the Shadowfell Dragons, it is once again my people who must pay. We are forced to relocate from the villages where we have lived our lives to resettle in the valley between the mountains that are home to the Drakoryans. But I am not docile. I will not submit to them or their rule. I have already lost all that I love and am ready to lay down my life to resist their rule. These Drakoryan dragons may be able to transform into men, but I see them for what they are. They are monsters.I want to lead an uprising, but five strong dragon men have other plans. The Drakoryan tradition have long been for brothers to claim human women as their shared mate. The Lords of Kri'byl seek to take me as their own, to turn my defiance into trembling surrender with their skill.
I'm determined to deny them. But these are no ordinary men, and I'm about to find out that the fabled talents of these dragon shifters extend into the bedchamber. Can I continue to resist? Or will they conquer me as they conquered my people?
