The time of Queen Arabelle and her companions has long since passed, and a new adventure has begun in this mythical world of dragons and heroes. Casimir Ivanov was born in a country, across the sea from Queen Arabelle's country, known as Altair. He is a master swordsman and an excellent smart mouth, but he lacks one very important trait that he is mocked for. Dragon rider blood. After running away from home to avoid being insulted further, Casimir finds himself meeting up with two Tionian siblings: Leopold Colburn, a renowned swordsman in Tiona and a future dragon rider, and Adaline Colburn, Leopold's younger sister and the rider of a water dragon. Leopold tells Casimir about an event known as the Dragon Tournament, a game designed to test if you are worthy enough of riding a dragon. When a mix up at the games occur, Casimir finds himself thrown into the games in Leopold's place and competing to prove himself worthy of riding a storm dragon, one of the most feared dragons out of all. Yet his fate is twisted before his eyes as he finds himself journeying with a group of unlikely allies in order to put a stop to the unrest unfolding in Tiona, a country that isn't his own but one that felt more like home than his did. It will take more courage than Casimir ever knew he had if he plans on surviving long enough to return home safely. ---------- © Isabella Espe 2014 - 2019 This is a work of fiction.

Para algumas pessoas apenas um breve período longe de casa pode transformar o que conhecem em algo estranho; para um ex-soldado de elite, que passou os últimos quatro anos no deserto lutando pelo seu país, estranho é eufemismo. Ao voltar para a Big Apple além de lidar com o pai, um multimilionário que torna o mundo seu inferno particular, ele tem que lidar com a nova vizinha irritante, que parece estar sempre de bom humor e que continua rebolando seu corpo delicioso para dentro da vida dele sem interrupções e sem pedir permissão. E pensar que tudo o que ele queria era um pouco de paz depois de tantos anos em uma guerra verdadeira e a vida inteira em uma guerra metafórica. Paz, contudo, não era uma opção como uma vizinha como aquela. Isso tudo, é claro, sem contar com o cachorro dela, que além de barulhento aparentemente o elegera seu melhor amigo. É... paz definitivamente não era uma opção ali. Mas aquele SEAL parecia cada vez menos interessado em quietude e cada vez mais atraído por aquela bagunça de pernas incríveis. ~ Thermopylae Trilogy 1: Sparta ~ Betada por NotApopCorn ~ Capa incrível feita pela JullyaSilva__

Phoebe has been encumbered with a task: finding a husband. Of course, it was a rather common expectation for a young woman of the early 1800s. However, Phoebe's husband-to-be had additional requirements. First, the man should be willing to give his name to a woman who decorated her conversations with stutters. Secondly, the husband-to-be would have to sacrifice his previous pursuits and instead continue her father's plantation. Thirdly, the said-husband must be of liberal-mind and use the plantation as a ruse to free slaves. Surprisingly, this task may not be as herculean to a visiting English-man.
