When Viola shifts into a dragon Queen after the centuries-old curse has been broken, she is taken prisoner by a greedy stud who wants her to have his babies. Rescued by the dragon embassy and put into protective custody, Viola tries to learn about her new place in dragon society, but her entire world has turned upside down with bizarre rules and rituals she can’t even fathom.

Sergei hates Queens. But Viola is more human than dragon. When she accidentally names him her protector and consort, dragon law does not allow him to refuse. But the deep attraction they feel to each other makes it more than the life sentence it could be. Even though there’s a dangerous cult out to kill her, dragon studs who want to kidnap her, and the old Queens do not like that their power structure being challenged by all the new, emerging Queens, Sergei vows that no one will harm Viola and he’ll sacrifice his life to keep her safe.

But when Sergei is accused of murdering a Queen, Viola has to find her power to save both of them, before it’s too late.
