Dragon Bound - The Saga of Flames and Frost
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.Complete

AN: Yes their is LGBTQ+ in this story so reader's beware. It is also not the main focus but in enough light that if you don't like it don't comment about it or read it for that mater. I'm a writer and I write what I think would make a good story and feel good to write about. I will say this, I'm not vary good at spelling or grammar but I do my best. I can say one thing! I can make one hell of a story when I put my mind two it! (Even if that story has mistakes and needs many more rereads for corrections, add-ons, and take outs.) Reviews are appreciated. If you like one part or dislike another give some feed back. I just don't appreciate haters. Feed back is not hate! It is what you think could do better or if something is good just the way it is. Have a nice read ~Jewels WolfComplete
