Welcome to Ashthorne Glen, the Dragon Capital of the Northeast.
A quirky small town where seven protective dragon shifters deal with magical mishaps and a matchmaking matriarch determined to find each of them a fated mate.
Documentary filmmaker Rona Lancaster doesn't believe in dragons or magic. Her life is based in facts, logic, and a determination to never stay in one place for too long. So filming a Halloween special in a dragon-obsessed small town should be easy. Capture the cozy atmosphere, interview a few locals, and maybe expose the tricks behind the folklore mystique the town has created.
Instead, she finds suspiciously convincing 'special effects,' far too many knowing smiles, and one handsome, grumpy fire chief whose overprotective interference makes her job impossible and her pulse race for all the wrong reasons.
After nearly losing everything that mattered, dragon shifter Caelen Ashthorne has built his life around duty and control as both Alpha and Fire Chief. With the annual Halloween festival days away, he has enough problems already. Magical glitches. Cursed coins. Protecting a town full of secrets. The last thing he needs is a skeptical outsider with a camera. Even if he can't take his eyes off her.
When his Stonefire reacts unpredictably around Rona, Caelen insists it's just magical interference.
But his meddling mother, and the rest of Ashthorne Glen, know better.
A fated mate bond has ignited... and they won't let Caelen or Rona ignore it.
