Perfect for you if...

You love enemies-to-lovers romance with real tension, where the stakes are personal and political at once.
You're desperate for more dragon rider stories after Fourth Wing and want that same high-stakes aerial combat mixed with court intrigue.
You enjoy morally grey heroes and heroines who have to choose between duty and desire when those two things directly conflict.

Maybe not for you if...

You prefer standalone novels over series and don't want to commit to a multi-book arc.
You're looking for slow-burn romance. The chemistry ignites fast here, and the relationship develops quickly once it starts.
You want a protagonist without physical limitations or disabilities. This book centres disability as strength, not tragedy, which isn't for everyone.

About this book

A princess born with one arm, underestimated by the elite dragon riders of Maethalia, enters deadly trials to become the next leader of the Skrathan after her sister's murder by enemy pilots. She must survive dragons, outfly rivals, and prove herself worthy of the crown as her kingdom faces internal collapse. When a mysterious stranger washes ashore, he becomes her only ally—someone who sees her strength rather than weakness. Charlie claims to be a reporter and teaches her to fight smarter and fly harder. But he is actually the Silver Wraith, the most feared pilot from their enemy nation, and discovery would mean execution as a spy. As their connection deepens, she finds herself caught between her duty to protect her kingdom and her feelings for the enemy. With war brewing across the sea and conspiracies spreading through the palace, she must decide what she is willing to sacrifice to claim the crown. The story features dragon riders, forbidden romance, deadly trials, court intrigue, and found family.
