Skye was never meant to rule. The third child of Eskeleth's king, it's her place to practice the skills of war and death, to protect her country and the older sister who will be queen. She's spent six years learning the ways of an assassin, preparing to do just that.
Disaster has befallen Eskeleth's royal family, though, and Skye is next in line for the throne. For the sake of her people, she must return to a land plagued by ghosts - and bordered by a rapacious Empire - to fight for her crown against a Council that will do anything to keep her from it.
Because if Skye is to rule, she must overcome an ancient prophecy, one that promises Eskeleth's end in blood and fire. To save her kingdom, she will need to be princess and assassin both, or everything she's ever known will be destroyed.

Rise of Fire: Dragons Reborn [COMPLETED]
The world had long since forgotten the age of dragons, those creatures that had once ruled the skies as gods had long since disappeared after the conclusion of the Great Demon Wars. Dragons became nothing more than a fading legend, a story to tell children at bedtime. But the gods could not let the dragons die, for they were the last defense against the demon armies and the dark god Vekkar. Talia had been born and raised in a world of darkness acting as an agent of Hephatus, goddess of assassins and death. She knew only a life of killing, sometimes for justice, sometimes for honor, always for money. Her morals were opaque at best. But when she's deployed to the city of Arboros she finds herself thrust into a world of political games, opposing powers, and constant threat. Nowhere was safe even for her. Her goals became muddied, and then lost altogether when she meets the Dwarven Prince. Bromyr had spent the last five years of his life chasing ghosts, desperate to find the lost dragon eggs. His people thought him crazy, his father stripped him of his titles, but he never gave up. Eventually his effort bore fruit and he hastily made way to return to his homeland only to get caught up in the city of Arboros. It was there that he met an intriguing half-giant, a woman who ignited a fire everywhere she went. In the end she was the one who inadvertently brought about the new age of dragons. What could go wrong when an ill tempered assassin becomes the first dragon rider of a new age? ***Cover made by annie1loves1you***Complete
