A cursed queen. A forbidden crown. An army of sleeping dragons beginning to wake beneath a kingdom on the brink.
Queen Maelis never wanted the throne of Vaelor, and she certainly never wanted the ancient crown bound to her blood. But when the relic awakens a dragon beneath the palace, the fragile peace holding her kingdom together begins to fracture.
The only man who may understand the danger is Kael Veyr, a disgraced dragonkeeper with secrets of his own. His family once guarded the sleeping dragons from the throne, and he knows the crown was never created to protect Vaelor. It was designed to control the creatures buried beneath it.
As old enemies move against the kingdom and more dragons begin to stir, Maelis must decide whether to trust a man raised to fear her crown—and whether she is willing to uncover the truth about her own cursed inheritance.
Because the power beneath Vaelor is older than any royal bloodline.
And if the dragons rise in anger, there may be no kingdom left to save.
The Crown That Woke the Dragons is a gripping epic fantasy romance novella filled with ancient magic, royal betrayal, forbidden attraction, a magical crown curse, and a dragon awakening that could change the fate of an entire realm.
