In a world divided by prejudice and
hatred, only love can bridge the chasm.
Tensions are rising in the Gladium
Province. The boundary between humans and Morgons has begun to blur. While the
human aristocracy strives to maintain distance between their daughters and the
dragon-hybrid race, fate has other plans.
As the daughter of the corporate king,
Jessen Cade is duty-bound to honor her arranged marriage to a man she detests.
Feeling trapped by family duty and a loveless future, she longs for more,
straying to the Morgon side of the city.
Lucius Nightwing is the eldest son of the
powerful Morgon clan, and the greatest enemy of Jessen’s father. When a
bar-room brawl thrusts Jessen into his arms, his dragon roars to the surface,
craving to sate his carnal hunger in the brown-eyed beauty. The beast in Lucius
recognizes her as his own, even if the man refuses to admit the truth.

Prologue
Thousands of years ago,
Radomis, the dragon king of the North, took flight on the last full moon of
winter. Beating great, black wings, he soared away from his mountainous
kingdom, lured by some unknown force to the sultry lands in the west where
humans dwelled. Dragons and humans had always lived apart.
On this same night,
Princess Morga honored the fertility rite of bathing under the full moon the
night before her wedding. As she stepped from the natural steaming pool,
rivulets of water glistened over milk-pale skin, ebony hair slicked over her
breasts and down her back. The dragon king saw her. Instant desire ensnared his
beastly heart. He descended.
Shifting into human
form, a man of might and beauty, he murdered her guards and handmaidens. Horrified,
Morga could do nothing when the dragon king took her in his arms, hard lust in
cold eyes. The moment his tongue licked into her mouth, she felt the burning of
soulfire—the dragon elixir meant for his one and only mate. Golden heat melted
through blood and bone, filling her with euphoric pleasure, bonding her to him
forever.
Radomis took her on the
ground among bloody bodies and moon-shadows, intent to sate his hunger. One
night would never be enough. Shifting into dragon form, he carried her in his
claws back to his kingdom. She would be his queen, trapped in a gilded cage of
opulence as the object of his endless desire.
From their union, a
child was born—an abomination. A human body with dragon wings and dragon
strength. The boy, Larkos, was outcast among dragonkind, including his father.
Only Morga showed him any love.
When Larkos reached
manhood, he wielded his rage with an avenging sword, tracking and killing all
of dragonkind. Even in beast form, his father could not match him, finally
falling to the forgotten son’s sword. What Larkos did not know was that
soulfire bonded his loving mother to the beast in such a way that when his
dragon-heart stopped beating, so did hers.
This is the tale I’d
been told when my body began changing from child to woman, a warning for young
girls to beware of Morgon men.
“Never stray from your
own kind, Jessen,” my mother would say, “or you could end up like Princess
Morga, a slave and outcast to be abhorred.”
The problem was, I’d
never been a very obedient daughter. Never the one to do exactly as I was told.
And fairy tales have no meaning when the stars align and Fortune spins her
wheel, weaving her own story for your heart.

Juliette calls lush, moss-laden Louisiana
home where the landscape curls into her imagination, creating mystical settings
for her stories.
She has a B.A. in creative writing from
Louisiana State University, a M.Ed. in gifted education, and was privileged to
study under the award-winning author Ernest J. Gaines in grad school.
Her love of mythology, legends, and art
serve as constant inspiration for her works. From the moment she read JANE EYRE
as a teenager, she fell in love with the Gothic romance--brooding characters,
mysterious settings, persevering heroines, and dark, sexy heroes.
Even then, she not only longed to read
more novels set in Gothic worlds, she wanted to create her own.
