Dragons of Alaevia (Romance)

Dragons of Alaevia is a sweeping, epic romance set in a world where powerful dragons and humans are bound by an ancient, fragile peace. In the kingdom of Alaevia, dragons once roamed freely, feared and revered by all, until a bloody war between the two species left scars that would last for generations. Now, dragons are mostly myths, creatures of legend, their existence known only to a few. But beneath the surface of the kingdom, tensions simmer, and old wounds threaten to resurface. The story follows Lyra, a strong-willed young woman born into a noble family with a secret lineage tied to the dragons of Alaevia. Unbeknownst to her, Lyra carries the blood of a dragon within her-a heritage that has been carefully hidden to protect her from those who would seek to exploit her powers. When Lyra encounters Kael, a mysterious and charismatic dragon-shifter, she finds herself drawn to him in a way that defies reason. Kael, once a prince of the dragon clan, has lived for centuries in exile, cursed to walk in human form, estranged from his people due to a past betrayal. As Lyra and Kael's paths intertwine, their bond grows stronger, and a forbidden love begins to blossom between them. But their love is fraught with danger. Lyra's true heritage is uncovered, and she becomes a target for those who wish to control the dragons' power, including a ruthless faction that seeks to reignite the war between humans and dragons. Together, Lyra and Kael must navigate treacherous political landscapes, fight against enemies from both the human and dragon realms, and uncover secrets that could change the fate of both species. Dragons of Alaevia is a tale of passion, sacrifice, and destiny, where love defies boundaries and the heart can no longer be denied. In a world torn by ancient grudges and dangerous alliances, Lyra and Kael's love becomes the key to healing a fractured world-or watching it burn. With breathtaking world-building, heart-pounding adventure, and a romance that soars as high as the dragons themselves, Dragons of Alaevia is an unforgettable story of love against the odds, where the line between human and dragon is blurred, and the heart's deepest desires are tested.
