Too bad the Hunter finds her. And now her human friend, who has no idea how to protect herself, is in danger of the King and his knights. At least she found a counter curse for her knight. . . maybe. So what do you do when the knight in shining armor needs saving? You send in his hybrid monster girlfriend. . . and her squishy human friend to save the day.

C. S. Lewis’s Chronicles of Narnia meets YA romantasy in this dual point-of-view, slow-burn romance. Sarah Lind thinks her biggest problems are picking a college and helping her large family. Until she falls into the perilous Six Realms, inhabited by human-dragon shapeshifters who fight for their survival against the monsters of Earth’s myths. If Sarah is to find her way home, she will have to work with their Heir, who is kind and handsome enough to put her in a different kind of peril. Koriben Sunfilled thinks his biggest problems are finding a cure for his beloved father and redeeming the magical Covenants that are the basis for his people’s existence (in that order). Until he finds Sarah, an entrancing Earthren who is just the person he needs to help him avert disaster. Yet even greater shadows creep across the horizon. If the Six Realms and Earth are to endure, both Sarah and Ben will have to embrace their destiny—before the Devourer consumes their worlds. Readers who love Brandon Sanderson’s hope-filled, immersive fantasy (but, let’s be honest, crave a bit more romance) will “devour” Dragon's Blood, Book 1 of the Blood of the Covenants Series.
