Dragon Scales and Hearts Saga · Book One
Sapphire Scales and Tears
Some bonds can be broken. Some hearts are worth risking everything for.
In a world that fears The Old Gods, Emma has nothing left to lose.
Betrayed by the man she trusted with her body and heart, ruined in the eyes of her village, and facing a future of shame or exile, she chooses to jump off the cliff's edge over a life of regret.
But death does not claim her.
Instead, she awakens in a hidden sea cave, bound by blood and ancient magic to two devastatingly beautiful dragon shifters who have slumbered for centuries — gentle, cerulean-eyed Kryos and fierce, emerald-eyed Hylas.
Tied to her life force, the dragons are her only way out of the village that never wanted her — and she is their only chance at freedom. As Emma flees with the very creatures her world now calls extinct and heretical, she must navigate a dangerous new world, a bond she never asked for, two males who awaken feelings she swore she would never trust again, and the terrifying truth that her "sacrifice" may have awakened far more than just two dragons.
Sapphire Scales and Tears is the first book in the Dragon Scales and Hearts Saga, a lush, character-driven romantasy trilogy perfect for fans of emotional slow-burn, dragon shifter romance, and stories of healing after betrayal.

An Excerpt
Emma walked slowly through the night in almost total darkness, guiding herself with a single flickering candle… towards death. She smelled the brine of the sea and heard, more strongly, the clash of the waves below at the base of the cliff. She closed her eyes lifting her face up to the sky. There was no moon tonight. She wished she could have seen it one last time. She guessed that was another small punishment she deserved.
Another tear trailed down her cheek, and she was amazed at how many tears she had left in her. She felt the warm tear turn into a cold trail of sorrow marking her skin.
