Wing and Crown

The war for the dragons has only grown more deadly. And more personal.

She was always enough.

He saw it first.

Sulia Dek is one of the first dragon riders and one of the deadliest. Her sword is unmatched, her loyalty unquestioned, and her honesty… unavoidable.

But her weakness is something she cannot fight.

With one arm bound close to her chest, Sulia has spent her life proving she belongs on the battlefield, in the skies, and anywhere strength is demanded. Letting anyone close enough to see doubt? That's a battle she refuses to lose.

Until the king gives her no choice.

Arnor has ruled since he was a boy, forged by loss and determined to protect his people from the ogres who took his family. He needs strength at his side, and there is no one he trusts more than Sulia Dek.

So he appoints her his bodyguard.

Sulia doesn't want the role. Arnor doesn't give her the option.

While the ogres unleash a deadly plague on the dragons of Shartres, the kingdom stands on the edge of collapse. And enemies beyond their borders may be waiting to strike.

Forced into close quarters, bound by duty, and hunted by a war they cannot afford to lose, Sulia and Arnor must learn to trust each other in ways neither of them expected.

But some battles aren't fought with steel.

And some truths are harder to face than any enemy.

The Fifth Flight series is a clean & wholesome, slow-burn romantasy in a challenging fantasy world of dragons, similar to the style of Rebecca Yarros' Fourth Wing.
