 The world against dragons. One girl against the world. There are dragons in the Arizona Mountains, and only Alita Drake knows it. No one believed her at three years old when she stumbled across them during a family picnic. They certainly wouldn't believe her now. Not that she's allowed to tell anyone anyway--her dragon, Yackros, made that clear. The other dragons can never know about the human who now visits their hidden forest, and humans aren't supposed to know about dragons. But nothing stays secret forever. Now Alita must accept that she alone can save her dragon from the dark clutches of Ruxsiu, a false king acting as ruler. Finding the true dragon king can save her best friend, but it isn't something she can do alone. She must convince her boyfriend to help despite his disbelief in dragons and trust a strange old librarian in the race to save the only relic that can fix everything--the dragon's pearl. **

All magic has been destroyed, and once the white rose turns red, Roselyn and Osric will be forced to remain apart. With only four days to save their love, they must learn how to restore magic to the land . . . or their chances of being together forever are gone.
