Attraction that’s off the scale… Only for those I love would I traipse into the merciless Northlands to risk life, limb, and my exquisite beauty. But do they appreciate it? Do they say, “Gwenvael the Handsome, you are the best among us—the most loved of all dragons?” No! For centuries my family has refused to acknowledge my magnificence as well as my innate humility. Yet for them, and because I am so chivalrous, I will brave the worst this land has to offer. So here I stand, waiting to broker an alliance with the one the Northlanders call The Beast. A being so fearful, the greatest warriors will only whisper its name. Yet I, Gwenvael, will courageously face down this terrifying…woman? It turns out the Beast, a.k.a. Dagmar Reinholdt, is a woman—one with steel-gray eyes and a shocking amount of cunning and ambition hidden behind her demure spectacles. This bespectacled political strategist has a brilliant mind that puts warriors to shame and a dry wit that matches Gwenvael’s own. Their unlikely alliance soon becomes something neither of them bargained for—a battle of equals where the smartest opponent might just win the dragon’s heart.
