About the Book

When Magnus is thrust from the Fae realm into the human world by dark magic, he struggles to keep his power—and his rage—under control. Until he finds her, and discovers a new outlet for his obsessions.

Rose has spent her life helping others, but nothing prepares her for a fierce dragon-shifter who is stranded in her world. So when she accidentally poisons him, she has no choice but to take him captive.

Driven by revenge and haunted by his past, Magnus is determined to break free—until he realizes Rose's secrets might be his only key to survival.

As their worlds collide in a dangerous blend of magic and desire, Rose and Magnus are drawn into a battle not only for freedom, but for each other.

The Heart of the Dragon is a daring twist on "Beauty and the Beast" about sacrifice, revenge, and a passion strong enough to bridge realms. Perfect for readers who love dark fantasy and dragon-shifter romance.

"Magnus is everything I want in a dragon: damaged, dangerous, and in denial about how hard he's falling."— Reader review
