Book excerpt: A world of suave vampires, rowdy werewolves, and seductive dragon men. That world is now where Katherine Harrow finds herself after a disastrous introduction to the handsome Tegan Arsa, a dragon man with a twinkle in his eye and a lot of trouble at his back. Kate brings her own trouble when she touches him and a magical bond is formed, one that eternally binds them together partners. Tegan has other ideas about their relationship as they find themselves journeying through his world of magic and fantasy. Danger lurk in the shadows but those are nothing compared to that which awaits them in the cities. The imperial officials aren’t pleased to hear about their accidental bond. Dragons aren’t supposed to bind themselves magically with humans. What’s worse is Kate’s newfound, and very uncontrollable, magic. Their bond has granted her abilities she could never dreamed of, but she has no idea how to control them. They’ve also attracted the attention of some seedy customers who want to use her newfound gifts for their own nefarious purposes. The pair find themselves running from both sides of the law as they try figure out why fate has drawn them together before forces beyond their control pull them apart.
