He walked out of the fire without a burn on him. Then she told him what he is.
Nash Cole fights fire for a living. He doesn't know he is one.
Eleven seasons on a hotshot crew taught him to read smoke and cheat the wind. It never taught him why the star-shaped scar on his chest itches every time the flames get close, or why the fire leans toward him like it knows his name.
Sera Vane knows. She's been hunting him for forty years.
Exiled from her Eyrie for refusing to kill a human witness, Sera has exactly one road home: deliver the Prime, the first dragon-blooded male born in three hundred years, to the lord holding her leash. Nash is the asset. The job is simple. Bring him in alive.
Then she watches him walk into a burnover for men who aren't even his blood. And the handler starts asking questions handlers never ask.
The claiming bond doesn't care about her orders or his ignorance. It only knows two fires found each other in the dark. But Aurelian is coming to collect, and Sera must choose: the pardon she has bled forty years for, or the man who looked at a dragon and didn't flinch.
First Mark is Book One of Emberbound, a five-book dragon-shifter romance. Fated mates. A claiming bite that costs them both everything. A hero who doesn't know what he is, and the woman who has to decide what he's worth. Slow burn, high heat, explicit and consensual.
