They took everything-our homes, our way of life, our culture. They believed we would surrender to their whims. But I knew who I was, the Elder's son, destined to rise and reclaim what was ours. The fight against those who stole our homes begins with me. But Greyson James changed everything for me. My understanding of myself was turned upside down, and I became someone I had never known. Descending from the velvet night sky like radiant shooting stars, our fervent passion ignited with an intensity that illuminated the darkness, flickering and glowing with every heartbeat. But life stops for no one. Especially when that life is trying to kill you.

In a world adrift between storm and silence, Captain Wen Hai sails a fragile path-not just through treacherous seas, but through the tangle of memory, duty, and desire. Haunted by a past he can't quite grasp and drawn inexplicably to the mysterious Bai Yingjie-a man as fierce as the tides-Wen Hai finds himself caught in a current that defies reason. When Bai offers his loyalty in exchange for a single, haunting demand-to see Wen Hai every day-their fates begin to twist tighter, like ropes under strain. Secrets ripple beneath the surface, and with each passing wave, the line between ally and enigma blurs. On the voyage to restore a dying kingdom, can Wen Hai stay the course... or will longing pull him beneath?

**Preview Only** When a wounded dragon falls from the sky, Claire Evans runs into a cornfield to rescue it. This isn't just any dragon, he's a shifter, one of six royal protectors, and helping him has consequences. Claire finds herself traipsing--or rather, flying--across the kingdom of Dragonwall. She must face Dragonwall's king. King Talon is not like those before him. Troubled and temperamental, he is scarred by more than the events that shaped him. Worst of all, he is mateless. With no queen and no heir, his subjects are demanding he abandon tradition and marry into nobility. There is a rising threat at his borders, whispers of a sorcerer. Soon, he will have greater problems than that of finding a wife. Modern meets medieval in this seven-book series filled with magical creatures and adventure. This epic fantasy is a slow burn romance that follows multiple POVs, woven together around Claire, a small town Indiana gal. If you've ever wondered what it might be like to get sucked into a fantastical world beyond our own, look no further! **Read Exclusively On Wattpad**
