Princes, dragons, and a forbidden alliance

Two heirs leave rival kingdoms for very different reasons: Reverie is fleeing a crown and a life of cruelty, while Xandreth is searching for answers about his people’s disappearance. Their encounter binds those aims together, forcing them to rely on one another as they face pursuit, buried truths, and a growing crisis involving an ancient myth. The romance unfolds amid dragons, witches, and magical technology, with the princes’ personal stakes tied to the fate of their world. The hardcover edition includes a two-page world map.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Readers interested in queer romance between princes from rival kingdoms
  • Fantasy readers looking for dragons, witches, and magical technology
  • Readers drawn to stories that combine romantic tension with a world-threatening crisis

Book overview

Queer, Black, and sexy as hell, The Drakon King is a forbidden love story between princes in the court of a cruel king and an edge-of-your-seat tale of missing dragons, ruthless betrayals, and stolen hearts.

Two princes, born to rival kingdoms.

Heir to a kingdom built on lies, Prince Reverie has one goal: avoid the crown. So when Reverie sees an opportunity to escape a life of pain and cruelty, he takes it and runs.

Heir to a kingdom banished into the sky, Prince Xandreth has one goal: find out why his people are going missing, abandoning his kingdom to find the truth, no matter the cost.

A meeting that was never meant to be.

On the run, pursued by both kingdoms and wild creatures, the princes meet. Xandreth can't trust a party boy to help find the answers he seeks and Reverie has been taught to hate and fear Xandreth's people since he was born, but the only way forward is for Reverie to break his vow to never return home. And for both of them to trust the other with their lives.

A love that could change the world.

But as truths come to light, a myth as old as the world comes to light, as well. A bird on fire and a world turning to ash.

Reverie and Xandreth are suddenly at the heart of a crisis--and a love--neither can afford to ignore.

Together they must claim the power they left behind and change their world.

Or watch it burn.

Perfect for fans of Crescent City, When the Moon Hatched, The Hundred Thousand Kingdoms, Fourth Wing, and the world of Blade Runner.

The hardcover edition includes a gorgeous two-page world map.
