Azara, a sharp-tongued, fiercely independent modern woman, finds herself ripped from her ordinary life and thrust into the Edge of the World-a land where dragons soar, castles loom, and courtly intrigue hides deadly secrets. Armed with nothing but her wit, her manicured nails, and a smartphone that's quickly running out of battery, she must navigate a world that sees her as both a myth and a threat.
When she appears in a brothel at dawn, the leading lady, Madam Veyra, takes her under her wing. Azara refuses to be a pawn in this world-she climbs the social ladder with calculated charm, making allies and enemies in equal measure. Among them is Lady Tesaria of Rains, a noblewoman just as bold and unyielding as Azara herself.
But when a forbidden night with a mysterious stranger turns out to be Prince Jacaris, heir to the throne, Azara is thrust into the heart of political games and a brewing war between humans and the ancient beasts who lurk beyond the kingdom's borders.
With the fate of the Edge hanging in the balance, Azara must forge unlikely alliances-even with the dragons themselves.
