Solid contemporary fantasy set in Tennessee with a focus on BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ characters. The novel starts slow but picks up for the last half. It could easily serve as a standalone or as the first in a series.

I really enjoyed this one! And I’m excited to get it in the hands of fantasy readers. Looking for something with dragons? Maybe something with an out bisexual lead? Something with sisters who love each other but also...maybe have some major differences and things to work through? Spectacular.

The Rivera family has always been dragon slayers. But, what happens when one daughter is lured into becoming a sorceress and one soul bonds with a dragon? It definitely might take the whole family to work things out here.

Also, the end?! Just left me ready for a sequel.

This book is so good! Magic! Dragons! Sisters! Friendship! Awesome combat, awesome characters. I just love Nox and Dani's relationship. I also love that this book is a standalone. I wish more books were standalones honestly.

I loved this contemporary dragon-slayer story! It's got wonderful action/adventure, twists and nice pacing. The characters are easy to like/hate and relate to and there are levels of diversity which is great. There are multiple layers of storylines working at the same time. I appreciated that this was a "one and done" book for my library kiddos who are not series lovers. Very satisfied at the end. Yay!
