Once There Was a Tree

Tree roots, dragon claws, earth and fire…

Gwenhwyfar Cronun is no longer the kick-ass warrior she used to be. All those skills evaporated the minute she was medevacked out of the Middle East. By the time she touched down in Eden, she'd not only lost her career, and an arm, she'd lost the man who'd encouraged her to be the best that she could be. She's reverted back to ordinary and she refuses to saddle him with weakness.

Ioan Sayer is ex-army. He's retired from service to chase a dream and a woman who's been haunting his nights since the day he'd loaded her aboard medical transport. When he shows up in Eden, he finds the odds of gaining ground questionable, but he's never retreated before and this is the most important battle of his life. He'll do whatever it takes to bring her back to the land of the living.

When Ioan shows up, armed with love and a purpose, Gwen finds herself facing the fiercest adversary of her life. She knows he won't let her wave a white flag in surrender even though she's lost the will to fight. He's trying to convince her she's still a fire-breathing dragon with courage and heart but the age-old demons say otherwise. If she can fund the strength to follow her captain into hell one last time and lay siege, she just might have a future.
