Shadow on the Wing
Katya Moore - 2018
Rugged Chase, the leader, and swaggering Aric, the pain in my ass. These four smoldering dragons hold the key to my past. And the secret to my own true dragon nature.
When I was four, someone sold my family out to a cult bent on destroying the world. They destroyed my childhood instead. I was torn from my people, torn from who I was meant to be, and tossed from home to home. After a lifetime of neglect, I've found a family of my own at McKinnett's Pub. They're the only ones I let in. On my twenty-first birthday, my past and my future collide. I come to my senses in the arms of a handsome stranger, with his equally handsome friends cleaning up one hell of a mess. The more time I spend with them, the harder it is to keep them at arm's length.
Will embracing the dragon trapped within me save me from danger, or send me spiraling deeper in? Will dancing with these four tempting dragons leave me burned? The fate of the world may hang in the balance. No pressure.
Shadow on the Wing is a steamy reverse-harem romance with sex, violence, and naughty language. It is the first in the Arysia Bellmont series.
