Taloned Heart — Emma Hamm

Can a dragon and an elf really save an entire kingdom?Lore has spent years dedicated to one purpose. Save the kingdom.

She's turned into something new, and Umbra changes her even more. A goddess reborn, with many names and many titles, and he fears she could fall to the power that is so tempting. But he will be there. By her side. No matter what happens.Because this dragon and elf were the stuff of legends. And legends never die.
