SIGNED: His Highness the Duke (Dragon Lords #5) Paperback
Signed Print. Dragon-Shifter Romance. Book Five in the Dragon Lords series. Sci-Fi, Paranormal Romance.
Aeron Grey has spent her entire life hiding behind a set of headphones and a Federation contract, translating threats she was never meant to act on. She is organized, careful, and very good at staying out of trouble. Then she intercepts a communication that could mean the extinction of an entire people. The Federation does absolutely nothing about it.
With no good options and a reckless gambler of a sister as her only ally, Aeron finds herself aboard a Galaxy Brides ship headed for the primitive planet of Qurilixen, disguised as a prospective bride and armed with a warning no one asked her to deliver. The plan falls apart the moment a dragon-shifter lord's sacred crystal blazes to life around his neck, and he looks at her like she is the only woman at the festival.
Lord Bron, High Duke of Draig, has attended six Breeding Festivals without a match. He is a man of iron honor and deep patience, and he had long since stopped hoping. Until now. But Aeron did not come to Qurilixen to get married. She came to save lives, and the two goals are rapidly becoming impossible to separate.
Stranded on a world she doesn't understand, bound to a man she doesn't know, and carrying secrets about her own mortality that change everything, Aeron is running out of time, and she cannot tell him why. Bron has sworn to protect her. She is not sure she can let him.
She came to save a planet full of strangers. She did not expect one of them to make her want to stop being one.
