Guardian of the Mist Dragon

Book excerpt: To save her family, Lin will defy convention—and her father—to take on the most extraordinary journey into a strange land... Stealing her father’s armor was the easy part. Now alone and confronted by mercenaries, Lin must defend a rare mist dragon’s egg. Just as she is badly wounded, a strange dragon drops out of the sky, breathing fire and scattering her enemies. Then the creature’s massive talons wrap around her body, and he carries her away… Her beauty sets his body on fire. Her stubbornness threatens to drive him mad… Dirkan abducted the injured human female for her own protection. Safely tucked away at his home, her spirit and beauty tempt him to claim her as his mate. But he has no future to offer her. He has obligations to his family that don’t include being with a human. Their bond is undeniable, and the heat threatens to burn out of control. But when the time comes to return to her land, will Lin be leaving her heart behind?
