The birthmark she's covered her whole life isn't meaningless. It's the last proof of a murdered bloodline, and the ground itself is about to reveal the truth.
Yeva has no surname, no parents, and no memories older than the Graywood orphanage that raised her. The only thing she has carried since childhood is a small horn-shaped birthmark everyone insisted meant nothing.Everything changes when one touch to the roots of the forbidden Deeproot Grove awakens a forgotten magic... and a dragon who has waited more than twenty years for the true heir to return.
Caslon Drell, a loyal Warden-knight sworn to protect the ruling Council, is sent to investigate the strange girl whose existence threatens everything his order believes. But the deeper he searches, the more impossible the official history becomes. Missing ledgers. Silenced witnesses. A murdered royal bloodline. And a dragon whose severed horn hides the greatest secret in the realm.
With the entire court gathering for the season's oldest ceremony, Yeva and Caslon must expose a conspiracy buried for twenty-three years before the people who stole the throne erase the final living heir forever.
Perfect for readers who love hidden-heir romance, dragon romantasy, fae courts, ancient magic, and morally grey protectors.
