Prince of Blaze and Embers by Zander Wolfe

A Slave. A Fire Prince. A Fate Written in Dragonfire.

I’m Ash Mist—an orphan, a slave, a girl whose name was never meant to be remembered.
But I’ve always dreamed of more. Of freedom. Of soaring high above the world on the back of a dragon, where no one could ever touch me again.
That dream turns deadly the day a dragon battle erupts over my town, and a glowing rune blazes to life on my skin. Suddenly, I’m not invisible—I’m powerful. I’m chosen. And that makes me a threat.
Now the ruthless Blaze Queen wants me for her dark desires…
She sends her most dangerous general to capture me—Cade Phoenixfire. A fireborn prince feared across the realms. Bound to a monstrous dragon and haunted by a past as scorched as the lands he conquers.
But I’m not the helpless girl he expects. I won’t bow. I won’t break. And the more he tries to control me, the more something wild and forbidden sparks between us.
He was raised to serve the crown. I was born to burn it down.
As war ignites and our fates entwine, I have to choose: run from the fire—or drown it.
Because I might be the key to an ancient prophecy. And the girl no one ever saw… might be the one to change everything.
