Arla Severn has trained to be the next Dragon Master her entire life alongside her father. When a dragon seemingly goes wild and kills him, it sets Arla up to be the next Dragon Master in her tight-knit clan of Valles. But the Elder council gives it to her uncle instead.
Set on revenge, Arla sets her sights on finding Julius Greymore, a man who illegally bonded with a dragon and was banished from Valles over 20 years ago. But she has no idea that the Julius Greymore she seeks out is dead—only his son of the same name remains, and he doesn't like Arla.
Will she be able to convince the brooding and disarmingly attractive rebel son to help her return to Valles and show everyone who the rightful Dragon Master is, once and for all?
