Redheart  

(Leland Dragon Series #1)

by Jackie Gamber (Goodreads Author), Matthew Perry (Goodreads Author) (Illustrator)

 

BLURB: 

 

Kallon Redheart lives with his back turned on his fellow dragons, on humans, and on everything he once understood. Riza Diantus is a young woman with dreams too wide to fit inside her village fence. Their unexpected friendship is risky in Leland Province, where drought has stripped the land and superstition has cowed its people. And the danger only grows. Fordon Blackclaw, Dragon Council Leader, resents Leland's time-worn venur system. He has inflamed tensions between dragons and humans to the brink of war. He wants to trample humans into utter submission, or wipe them off the face of the land. Anger erupts, scorching innocent lives in its path. When Riza is threatened, Kallon is the only one with the power to save her. But first, he must confront his past and the future he stopped believing in. He must claim his destiny 

 

MY TEASER: 

 

Surely she was still dreaming, they couldn’t be real. She reached a fingertip to see. Those dark scales were rising and falling, rising and falling, as though attached to something breathing.
