“A fiercely imagined world!” —Mary E. Pearson, New York Times bestselling author of the Remnant Chronicles

From the New York Times bestselling co-author of My Plain Jane comes the second book in a smoldering fantasy trilogy about a girl who must embrace her latent power or lose the dragons she loves. Perfect for fans of Julie Kagawa and Kendare Blake.

Mira the Dragonhearted is on the run with her friends following a fiery escape from the prison where she’d been condemned for speaking out against dragon trafficking.

And she wants answers. Has the treaty she’s been defending her whole life truly sold out the Fallen Isles to their enemies? Did her own parents lie to her? Will she lose control of her power and hurt the ones she loves?

The only way to find the truth is to go home again, to face the people who betrayed her and the parents she’s not sure she can trust. Home, where she must learn to rise above her fears. Or be consumed.

A Powerful Heroine on the Run: Mira the Dragonhearted has escaped prison, but freedom is far from guaranteed. With warriors on her trail, she must rely on a band of unlikely allies to survive.
Dangerous Latent Magic: An explosive power is waking inside Mira, one she can’t control. Can she master it before it consumes her and hurts the ones she loves?
A Found Family of Fugitives: From her loyal protector to the silent boy she freed from a neighboring cell, Mira’s circle of friends is the only thing she can trust in a world of lies.
Dragons in Peril: The fight against dragon trafficking is what landed Mira in prison, and now she’ll risk everything to protect the magnificent creatures she loves.
A World of Betrayal: The treaty bearing Mira’s name was meant to protect the Isles, but it may be a devastating lie. To find the truth, she must confront the one place she never wanted to return: home.
