Anna lives in a world where by the time they turn eighteen, every man and woman must have a beast bond. Those of them left unbonded are cast out of the city, deemed violent and insane; for if even a rat will not lower itself to bond with you, you must be the lowest of the low.
Anna has lived a simple, easy life as the part of one of the most powerful families in the land. Each member of her family had bonded mighty rare beasts, a sign of great power. It boosted them through society's ranks. Her father had bonded with one of the last of the unicorns. Her brother, a manticore. Her mother, a great eagle. Even her adopted sister bonded with a lion.
But as her eighteenth birthday approaches, and with no beast having choose her, she must make a choice. Stay, and bring shame upon her and her family...
Or leave the city on her own terms.
Striking out across the Ashlands, Anna will discover an adventure she wasn't looking for, and a prophesy she has stumbled into the middle of.
Can she bring two species who once slaughtered each other together to save themselves? Can she win this battle? Or the ones ahead?

Heart of Caelumbrea
One girl. One dragon. One bond that could save-or destroy-the realm, Cealumbrea.

Nyx, her shadow-flame companion, is feared as much as she is. Unmistakably powerful, untrained, and marked by secrets even Aurelia does not yet understand. But this new realm is nothing like the one she left behind. Dragons live alongside riders, but not all bonds are welcome.

And when her bond with Nyx sparks suspicion and fear, Aurelia must decide-will she bend to the realm's rules, or shatter them?

Gifted to the Alpha (SAMPLE) Amazon
Forget what you know about the fairytales of werewolves. There's no such thing as a moon goddess, there's no such thing as mates. Wolves are animals cruel, mean, and ferocious. The law can't touch them. The world leaves them alone. They govern their own. That's what I was thought and so far all has been true. What I didn't know was that my little town had a tradition. The harvest was established to create peace between species, every year a girl is offered to the Alpha. I've gone, and luckily never been selected. My future is bright and my thirst for knowledge wins without doubt. Only, I was gifted to the Alpha, a piece offering given to leave the town alone. Presented to him a slave, gifted to an animal. My mother cried, my sister chastised, while I lied. My future is gone but my family is safe. That's all that matters for today, but tomorrow is another story. So tell me.....What happens when the big bad Alpha grows attached?
