By popular demand, Shift: Stag's Heart, and Shift: Dragon's Bride once more as one volume!
An old kingdom full of secrets. A new regime full of its own. Some things refuse to be forgotten, things which grow violent when denied.
Legends prove reality. Faery Tales prove Truth. And nothing burns hotter than a dragon's heart.
****
The royal family of Elanthus is dead, and the coronation of a new king is imminent. Every noble must attend and swear their loyalty, bringing with them their unmarried children. After all, there are royal matches to be made.
Caelerys is the only daughter of Duke Maral, sent to the capitol to her eldest brother who has lived at court since she was born. She is an accomplished huntress, archer, and horsewoman; fair of countenance and... painfully shy amongst strangers. Her brother Willam is overprotective, taciturn and generally at a loss as to how to deal with this female creature who is now his responsibility. Enemies lurk, seeking advantage, both ancient and newly made, and highly skilled in social warfare.
Not dreaming of the faery tale romance, determined only to find 'someone who'll suit', Cae finds instead that hearts never listen to reason. She knows the faery tale never comes easy, knows the price of failure as well as victory. It is hard won, and long suffering, and always inevitable.
