But when a dragon awakens in the countryside, searching for his stolen hoard, life becomes anything but mundane--especially when the dragon decides that Tarah might be the greatest treasure of all.This anthology also includes a new story from the brilliant Juliet Marillier, author of the Sevenwaters Trilogy and many other historical fantasy novels, including Beautiful, an Audible Exclusive, and her coming release, The Harp of Kings.Now, sit back and let us tell you a tale.
