Elowen Atarah was ripped away from her dragons and imprisoned as a child by her father, King Garrick of Imirath, but years later, Elowen is now a woman determined to free them. Having established a secret kingdom of her own called Aestilian, she's ready to do what's necessary to save her people and seek vengeance against the father who sought to destroy her and her dragon bond. Even if that means leaving the home she built for herself. Or having to align herself with the Commander of Vareveth, Cayden Veles, the most feared and dangerous man in all the kingdoms of Ravaryn and her father's sworn enemy. Cayden is ruthless, lethal, and secretive, promising to help Elowen free her dragons if she will stand with him and all of Vareveth in the pending war against Imirath. Despite their contrasting motives, Elowen can't ignore their undeniable attraction as they combine their efforts and plot to infiltrate the impenetrable castle of Imirath to steal back her dragons and seek revenge on their common enemy. As the world tries to keep them apart, the pull between Elowen and Cayden becomes impossible to resist, even when trusting each other seems both reckless and essential. Working together with their crew over clandestine schemes, the threat of war looms over them, making the imminent heist to free her dragons their most dangerous adventure yet. But for Elowen, her vengeance is a promise signed in blood and she'll stop at nothing to see that promise through."--
