Dragon Scales and Hearts Saga · Book Two
Emerald Scales and Sweat
Some homes are worth fighting for. Some bonds are forged in blood.
In a world that hunts the followers of The Old Gods, Emma has everything to lose.
Months after escaping the life that drove her from a cliff’s edge, Emma has found sanctuary. As a Priestess, she protects three hidden villages and shares a devoted marriage with her dragon husbands: gentle, cerulean-eyed Kryos and fierce, emerald-eyed Hylas.
But when armed knights arrive searching for the lost Lockwood daughter, Emma refuses to let her past endanger the family she has chosen. With her husbands beside her, she gives them what they came for.
Herself.
Imprisoned and coveted for her growing power, Emma must survive her captors and become strong enough to find her way home.
Some homes are worth fighting for.
Some bonds are forged in blood.
Emerald Scales and Sweat is the second book in the Dragon Scales and Hearts Saga, a high-heat, character-driven romantasy trilogy perfect for fans of why-choose romance with no MM, possessive dragon shifters and a heroine who transforms survival into power.

An Excerpt
Emma walked slowly through the night. Half the moon shone in the sky, and the children sang from the edges of the crops, as she called to the night dew, drawing its small droplets of water over them.
She talked to the earth, and it answered back to her, warm and welcoming, bringing its life source to the crops nurturing them.
