A Curse of Shadow and Fire: An Enemies-to-Lovers Dragon Romantasy by R.V. Nollson

Five regions. One ancient curse. And an enemy she should never desire. Iledrith was once a united realm—until witches set a curse that fractured its borders, drained the power of its elite, and condemned its people to centuries of suffering.

Crown Princess Ember Dovedale of Agni has spent her life preparing for a throne she never wanted. Deadly with any weapon, wielding fire, and bonded to her dragon, Khan, she is determined to protect her people at any cost—even if it means allying with the man she despises most.
