Did you enjoy The Dragon Question and wish there was a sequel? Guess what? Hint: if you haven’t read The Dragon Question, fix that mistake. If you have, this is it from the curse side of the story.

Some curses come with a benefits package, even when the curse wasn’t yours to start with.
Kimble’s a dragon and life is one glorious flight, hunt and flirtation after another.

If only Rasmuth would back off about making him the quintessential dragon. What is his problem?

If only he could settle into being a dragon and forget the human heart that once beat inside him.

If only he wasn’t attracted to human females.

Mayrian is terrified of snakes. Dragons are enormous snakes, and one of them seems to think she should enjoy his slithering company.

Someone needs to inform him that human woman have better things to do then entertain dragons.

Figuring out what she wants to do in life just complicates the process. Shepherding seemed like a fair prospect. Except for the snakes. And the dragons who keep landing in the high meadows.

It seemed a good prospect until she actually started doing it.

Move out on her own

Find an occupation worthy of her demand for adventure

Avoid snakes. And wolves. And dragons. The list grows with each day.

And stop standing out as one of the tallest women in town!

Can Kimble become the dragon he’s most suited to be? Or is being a dragon a curse he hadn’t expected?

Mayrian wants independence. So who’s holding her back?

That would be Mayrian.

Kimble’s realizing that loving a human is dangerous. To the human.

Sometimes loving someone means letting them go. Can his dragon heart make that choice?

Mayrian has been doing everything for everyone else, leaving her own needs out of the process. Can she put herself first and be content? Content with her very tall self? Her I don’t know what I want to be self? And no snakes, thank you very much.

Some curses come with benefits packages; others just won’t quit playing out new twists on the old theme.

Buy this follow up story to the fantasy dragon romance The Dragon Question because Kimble bit off more than he can fly with, and Mayrian’s not afraid to tell him so.
