"Michelle M. Pillow crafts an incredible story. Paranormal romance as hot as dragon fire!" - Gena Showalter, NYT & USAT Bestseller (2019) Grier's fiery passion for Salena might be everything his dragon ever wanted but loving her might just lead to the destruction of everything he's trying to save. From NY Times & USA TODAY Bestselling Author, Michelle M. Pillow, a fantasy science fiction romance! With all that is happening in his land, the upcoming shifter mating ceremony is the least of Grier's concerns. Even though he is the heir prince of the dragon-shifters, he doesn't have the authority needed to help the humans stranded in dragon territory, nor can he banish those who ruthlessly control them. Yet honor demands he finds an opportunity to intervene, and he hopes that doing so won't start a war the shifters can't win. Discovering his destined mate couldn't have come at a worse time. Salena knows what it is like to be a pawn of the Federation. They might have kidnapped her and brought her to this strange territory, but she will never do what they want of her... what everyone wants of her. The last thing the fugitive needs is the very public attention of a fierce dragon prince claiming they're fated by the gods-even if the sexy man makes her burn in more ways than one.
