Ashes and Wings: Book 1 of the World Break Series
About
A Slow-Burn Urban Fantasy Romance where the most dangerous monsters are the ones you can’t see—and sometimes, the one you can save.
Ten months ago, a wave of unpredictable magic, known only as the Shimmer, swept the world. For a small percentage of the population, life changed forever. For law student James, it meant a terrifying, agonizing transformation into a monstrous, black-scaled dragon—a beast hunted by the world and hidden in the dark tunnels beneath London.
Now, he’s a massive creature of fear, only able to endure brief, painful moments in his human skin. Alone, scared and hunted, he hides from the world.
The world saw a monster. Theo saw a life to save.
Despite juggling two jobs and university, compassionate Theo sees not a monster in the ragged, starving stranger he finds, but a man in desperate need of a lifeline. His gentle, steady presence draws James from his tunnels and back into the world. Theo shows James he can be loved and safe, helping him find a family and life he never thought he would have again.
But when Theo’s compassion draws the eye of the ruthless Hunters, James must choose: embrace the terrifying power of his magnificent dragon to save the one person who ever truly saw him, or let the human world take his only chance at freedom.
A story of trauma, transformation, and a love that can set a broken man—and his magnificent wings—free
