A Lick of Flame (The Lost Kings Book 2)

For years, Elara has lived a life defined by simplicity and safety. As a timid teacher in a quiet orphanage, she avoids the dangers of a realm ruled by a cruel queen, preferring the company of her garden to the chaos of war. She is the last person who should be involved in a quest to save the kingdom, yet destiny has a way of finding those who try hardest to hide.

Everything changes when a desperate flight from the fae leads her into the Forgotten Caves. There, she discovers a relic of a lost age: a pulsing, scaly dragon egg. When the shell fractures and a lick of flame emerges, Elara is thrust into a dangerous new world where the ancient laws of magic collide with her own dormant power.

This installment of the Lost Kings series is a masterclass in paranormal romance, blending high-stakes fantasy with an irresistible slow-burn dynamic. Set against the backdrop of a mysterious academy, the narrative follows Elara as she discovers that even the smallest person can hold the greatest fire. If you are craving a gripping tale filled with delicious tension, forbidden magic, and heart-pounding adventure, this is your next obsession.
