What's a dragon slayer to do when she comes home from battle and discovers her four-year-old son has turned into the creature she hunts? While Bailey Monzac knew it might happen someday, nothing could have prepared her for this challenge without her shifter mate, Aidan, by her side.
After fleeing for her life from Oklahoma five years ago and leaving him behind, she'd begun working for the New American Coalition on the east coast. While it has been a haven, the people are not fond of anything that can breathe fire. On top of that, she's just received a mystical "call" telling her that grave danger is approaching the home she left, and she must return.
Meanwhile, Aidan has his own troubles. He's paid a heavy price for helping Bailey escape his clan while she was pregnant with their child. It was the only option for them at the time, and he'd do it again, but now the pendragon has given him a deadly mission to search enemy territory. With dark magic permeating the area, sapping the life force of those who cross it, most have never returned. If Aidan wants to provide a secure place for his mate and their son when they arrive, he must face it and so much more. Only by choosing the right path will they survive the evil forces coming their way.
