Tara has never been a goody. To be brutally honest, she is a petty thief. A pretty good one at that. She and her father have lived simply together until she hears of the Dragon Legend and her father meets with a shady character.
When Tara decides to go after whatever the shady man wants, she finds herself lost in a world very different from her own, with dragons, magic, royalty. As she finds her way around, she finds herself in the middle of an ages-old battle. She is torn between temptation and duty, and possibly even love.
