The Nest Beneath the Bridge (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798196558894)

When seventeen-year-old Taylor crosses the old creek bridge on an ordinary Texas evening, she expects nothing more than a quiet walk home. Instead, she finds the impossible: a tiny, iridescent dragon clinging to a piece of driftwood, watching her as if it has already chosen her.

Taking him home is reckless. Keeping him secret is dangerous. Naming him Peanut is inevitable.

As Taylor scrambles to care for a creature no one should believe exists, her world begins to warp around the truth she's hiding. Shed scales glitter like evidence. Strange heat shimmers through her apartment. And her best friend Sage is the only person she can trust with the secret that's growing harder to contain.

But Peanut isn't just unusual - he's a warning.

Something ancient is waking beneath the county. Old routes are stirring, lights are appearing under the water, and Taylor's father is asking questions she can't afford to answer. When a second dragon hatches and the ground itself begins to shift, Taylor realizes she hasn't just found a creature out of myth.

She's found the beginning of a nest.

And the world is about to notice.

A story of hidden magic, fierce loyalty, and the bond that changes everything - perfect for fans of soft fantasy, found family, and secrets too big to stay buried.
