About this book

Take back your kingdom.

Unicorns and dragons never mix. For centuries, they've been bitter enemies and their kingdoms at war. But desperate times call for desperate measures. Tanis's beloved older brother and heir to their throne has been slain by a human who continues to flaunt her brother's death.

To restore her family's honor, she's willing to make a deal with a unicorn shapeshifter so that she can infiltrate the human kingdom and recapture what was so cruelly taken.

Dash Coeur de Noir isn't just any unicorn. As the High King, he's the most hated and feared of his breed, and he's on his own mission when the dragon Tanis crosses his path—to reclaim his sister's horn that was brutally taken. In the wrong hands, that horn could destroy the fragile peace that has kept the Thirteen Kingdoms from destroying each other.

In a world built on magic, blood, and betrayal, no one can trust anyone. With a bounty on their heads and assassins and enemies out to claim them both, they must somehow learn to trust each other or watch their kingdoms burn.

From 1 New York Times and international bestselling author Sherrilyn Kenyon comes an all-new world unlike anything ever seen before...

Welcom back Ms. Kenyon

January 14, 2026

I was a big fan of Ms. Kenyon with her Dark Hunter series, up until Acheron (her last great book in that series). She lost me with her Dream Hunter and Chonoicles of Nick series. She's back in full force with House of Fire and Magic. A whole new world with new myths and legends to get to know and entertain us. Interesting characters, lots of action. It's still formulaic, as was the Dark Hunter series. That is part of the charm, like a Hallmark Christmas movie. We know, in general, what is going...

Fire and Magic

October 29, 2024

Sherrilyn Kenyon is one of my favorite authors and this book was, as expected, a good read with her style of the beaten down heroes rising to over power their enemies and find their place of power and succeed. This book has a good story line that kept my interest till the end. Had a few edge-of-the-seat moments that had me not wanting to put the book down, but when I did I was looking forward to getting back to it. Even though it was a nice read, it wasn't as gripping as Sherrilyn's \"Dark...
