Dragon's Temptation (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781961053113)

Liane is the Goddess chosen, wielder of the golden blade. But the blade is embedded in her spine.

Liane is the goddess Cyra's Avatar, destined to destroy the dark plague sweeping the empire with the Golden Blade. Unfortunately, the sword is fused into her back. It's said only pure souls can draw the sword, which Liane must prove her divinity by giving up material comforts and carnal indulgences. She dedicated her life to the Church of Sol and prepared for a devout life, until Erich strolled back into her life, a temptation she cannot deny.

Erich crossed the continent to find Liane again, and he's ready to burn the world to keep her safe, but can he protect her from the monster under his skin? His control over the dragon is splintering, leading him down a dangerous path from which he cannot return. The longer he orbits around Liane trying to untangle her from the Church of Sol's influence, the more the dragon chips away at his sanity, and soon there will be nothing of him left...

Caught between divinity and damnation, they try to fight the inexplicable draw to one another. Liane's faith will be tested as Erich's restraints are broken. Together alone are they are strong enough to subvert the apocalypse. Can they overcome their fears and biases before darkness rises to destroy them all?
