A delightfully cozy and romantic fantasy adventure from debut author S.E. Whitlock, in which a princess and a rogue mage accidentally join a rebellion with the help of a grumpy dragon.

Princess Linaria can't control her magic. If she so much as giggles, flowers bloom and die, and fruits explode. But when she's sent away to marry the prince of a distant kingdom, fate places her secret in the hands of the mysterious scout escorting her.

Kirian is no scout. He's an earth mage who's accidentally witnessed the start of a rebellion. Now he's pretending to be a scout leading a caravan out of the kingdom in order to make his escape. Already saddled with an escaped dragon who won't leave him alone, Kirian also has to contend with an enchanting lady he shouldn't want, and his own long-buried sense of honor.

As the mismatched trio make their way through the kingdom, they uncover a secret agenda that could mean the end of magic as they know it. And if Kirian and Lin want to put a stop to it, they'll have to find a way to work together. That is, if they can keep their hands off each other long enough.
