When Raiden comes crashing into her world his nine years of isolation finally comes to an end, but he finds himself caught between his plans for revenge, orders from the leaders of his realm, and terrible visions of Nicole's future. The more time he spends with her the more he realizes he would do anything to stop those visions, if his secrets don't chase her away first.

Nicole must learn to control the immense power that has lain dormant inside her for eighteen years of her life and threatens to burn her from the inside out. When she saves a prisoner from cursed chains, she earns herself the trust of a reviled enemy of the other realm, but she can use all the allies she can get when his captor comes looking for them, the leaders of Veil are looking for her, the portal won't close, and she can't reconcile her an attraction to Raiden with her scarred outlook on love. When nightmares and mistakes from Raiden's past come looking for him, he's willing to risk everything but might lead Nicole right to the very fate he hopes to change.

In this gripping tale, a powerful young woman, a seer, and a dragon face a world that will try to define them and control them. Their enemies will try to decide their fates and force them to realize their best chance at survival is facing it all together.

Dragon Bound - The Saga of Flames and Frost by opheliasikes

Illara had trained all her life for this moment. She had been chosen - from all eligible women throughout the three kingdoms - to be presented to the dragon. Her noble sacrifice would ensure the safety of her lands for a full year. She glowed with pride at the thought. And any moment now the massive dragon would come soaring over the mountains, his massive strength and awesome power - What was this? Along a rocky pass, moving with the persistence of a love-struck cow, was something metallic. Something shiny. Her heart thundered with panic as the object drew closer and resolved into a shape. For she knew it could ruin everything. It could cause the destruction of all she held dear. It was a knight. * * * Half of all proceeds of the Dragon novelettes benefit battered women's shelters. While this first book is non-explicit, due to the strong sexual content and adult situations in future books, this romantic suspense series is recommended for readers aged 17+. The series is structured for readers to read along as I write them to offer feedback and suggestions on the complex storyline. If you're the style of reader who would prefer to wait until the entire series is finished before you tackle it, that is fine! Simply wait until the series is complete and I'll offer the boxed set. I do that with all of my books. The reason I publish as I write is that I don't write full time and it can sometimes take months for me to finish up a storyline. There are readers who don't want to wait - who would rather read along as I go and stay engaged in the process. That way they can provide feedback and suggestions on the storyline. Whichever way works well for you, I provide an option. I'd love to hear from you at my website at OpheliaSikes.com.
