About the Book:
Welcome to Bloodwing Academy.
Expect magic. Expect competition. Expect blood.
I didn't sign up for this. A half-fae in a school of highblood vampires? That's a recipe for suffering.
I'm Medra Pendragon, last of the dragon riders--or so they tell me. Funny thing is, there are no dragons left. Not a single one. But somehow, that hasn't stopped the vampires from deciding I'm worth capturing. Now I'm stuck at Bloodwing Academy, where the highbloods run everything, and blightborn like me? We're just blood in their veins, pawns in their games.
But that's not even the worst part. Enter Blake Drakharrow: cold, arrogant, and way too gorgeous for his own good. He's been tormenting me since the moment we met, and now, thanks to some ancient ritual, we're betrothed. He acts like he owns me, but I'm not going down without a fight.
Bloodwing isn't just a school--it's a battlefield. Highbloods fight for power, and if you're weak, you're dead.
Between deadly competitions, lies that could get me executed, and a dragon-shaped secret looming over my head, all I have to do is survive. Easy, right? Except I'm starting to think the real danger isn't the academy--it's what I'm becoming in this twisted game of power.
And Blake? He might just be the one who pushes me over the edge.
They think they can control me. They think they can use me. But they have no idea what they've awakened.

About the Conversation Partner:
I'm a Grand Rapids native, mom of two, wife to a motivated tri-athlete, and I personally wear many hats. My day job is a passion project that came to life, I help build teams of locum specialty and emergency veterinarians who provide national support to veterinary hospitals. When I'm not running around with kids, coordinating meetings, or cheering my husband on at rugby games and triathlon's, I'm writing! I've been an avid reader since I was young, finding the most joy in fantasy, until I got older and discovered the world of romance. I like to think my writing is a blend of all the genres I love mixed with a bit of chaos.
