Icarus

"Marked by a Dragon" is a dark fantasy romance that delves into the shattered trust, raw trauma, and magnetic pull between Princess Azalea and Zaydon Icarus, a powerful dragon-shifter bound to her by fate—and a dangerous bond. After a devastating ambush leaves Azalea wounded, bitten by a vampire prince, and teetering on the edge of transformation, she’s forced to make a desperate choice: surrender her will or bind herself to Zaydon, the very man she once loved—and now resents. Their journey through political betrayal, ancient rituals, and intimate entanglements is haunted by pain, power, and unresolved passion. As Azalea fights to reclaim her agency in a world that has taken so much from her, Zaydon is torn between his primal instincts and the desperate need to protect the woman he’s marked. Shadowed by court conspiracies, violent creatures, and a bond neither can break, they must navigate their past—and the explosive desires threatening to consume them both. With rich emotional depth, fierce chemistry, and a world brimming with myth, blood, and fire, "Marked by a Dragon" is a slow-burn, enemies-to-lovers epic that explores the cost of love, the weight of destiny, and the fight to reclaim one’s soul when fate has already chosen.
