Overview

For three thousand years, the Council of Magisters has ruled with an iron fist, exterminating dragons and shadow-mages alike. Vesper Ashford is the last of her kind-a seventeen-year-old shadow-mage who watched her family die for the crime of existing. Draven is the last dragon, cursed to a half-life of pain and imprisonment, finally facing execution after three millennia of suffering. When Vesper sees the smoke rising over Thornhaven, she should run. Instead, she walks into the execution square and does the impossible: she saves the dragon, forging a forbidden bond that connects their souls and makes them partners in magic, war, and destiny. Hunted by the most powerful empire in the world, Vesper and Draven must build an alliance of the desperate and the outcast-shadow-mages in hiding, dragons thought extinct, creatures from the Deep Realms, and humans who dream of freedom. Together, they'll challenge an empire, fight a war that spans continents, and build a new world from the ashes of the old. But the Dragon's Bargain demands a price. As Vesper and Draven navigate political intrigue, magical warfare, and the slow-building love that grows between them, they'll discover that some partnerships transcend even death itself. Perfect for fans of slow-burn romance, found family, and epic fantasy with heart. *The Dragon's Bargain* is a novel about love, resistance, and the magic that happens when two outcasts choose each other against all odds.

Author Information

Vivan writes sweeping romance and lush romantasy that blends heart-stopping love stories with worlds brimming in magic, danger, and wonder. Her novels are for readers who crave the rush of forbidden love, the thrill of ancient prophecies, and the moment a brooding fae warrior or ruthless vampire king finally falls to his knees for the one person he was never meant to want. A lifelong devourer of fairy tales and epic love stories, she now lives in New Zealand, where mist-covered mountains and wild coastlines feel suspiciously like the settings of her books. When she's not lost in her latest manuscript, you'll find her hiking windswept trails for ""research,"" drinking an alarming amount of coffee, or bargaining with her cat for just one more chapter before bed. Her promise to readers: no matter how dark the realm or how impossible the odds, love will always be the most powerful magic of all.
