Virgin Bride Sold to the Dying Dragon King: A Royal Fantasy Romance of a Father's Debt, a Fading King's Secret, and a Bride Who Refuses to Kneel

Kyla Crawford will do anything to keep her family vineyard from being taken.

Even marry a dragon.

At twenty-seven, Kyla inherits Domaine Crawford after her father's death, along with failing vines, mounting debts, and one secret he never trusted her enough to reveal. Buried in the estate records is an agreement signed more than a century ago. If the Crawford bloodline reaches the wrong set of conditions, the family must surrender its land to an ancient Crown or provide an unmarried heir in marriage.

Kyla refuses to lose the home generations of her family fought to keep.

So she signs.

Her new husband is Kevin Cline, billionaire mineral magnate, feared ruler of a hidden dragon court, and the last man she expects to want this marriage any more than she does.

Kevin has spent years trying to destroy the very pact that now binds them. But once Kyla activates it, an ancient geas begins turning his own dragon fire against him. He needs the marriage completed. She needs her land protected. Neither is willing to mistake obligation for love.

Inside Kevin's fortress, Kyla refuses the rituals meant to make a royal bride obedient. She keeps control of her vineyard, demands answers about the contract governing her life, and challenges a king whose instincts tell him to protect what is his.

The problem is that attraction does not care how much they resent the arrangement.

And when a rare dragon mate response begins drawing them closer, Kyla faces the one question she cannot settle with a contract.

If magic wants them together, how will she ever know whether choosing him is truly her own decision?

Enter the Cinder Court and discover what happens when a woman sold by ancient law makes a Dragon King earn every part of her heart.
