Peril has spent her entire life not being loved.
Carnelian has spent her entire life not loving.
But in a drastic turn of events, Peril and Carnelian are forced to work together and Jade Mountain Academy to keep Peril safe from death.
And suddenly, both their lives flip.
Carnelian discovers there's more under Peril's fiery surface. The girl with a tough outside, struggling to find friends. A dragon who needs her. A dragon who'd be good battle material, sure, but maybe friend material, too? More than associates? More than friends? Carnelian finds her entire universe warped with soppy, unbattlelike feelings she can't deny.
Peril can't pretend she's not here for Clay. She's loved him forever, and this could be her one big shot at making sure they're together, forever. Except... maybe she likes Carnelian, too? And then Peril's falling for her, the only dragon who understands her, the only dragon who promises to keep her safe, stuck between her fluttery, probably-mutual feelings for Clay and her new, shiny, probably-not-mutual crush on Carnelian.
Because birds of a feather fly together.
