    Summary

    Gwendolyn Thorn had always been aware of her position, coming from a minor house. Daughter of the steward of Ashford Meadow, the line that divided her between an ordinary person and someone of noble birth was a single name without much wealth. But such awareness was of little use against the shrewd and tempestuous ambition of her mother, who saw in her daughter a chance to rise in the hierarchy through an advantageous marriage.

    When an extravagant tournament is announced — one that attracts knights and noble families from all over the realm — to celebrate her best friend’s name day, Gwendolyn finds herself faced with the special attention of a prince of the realm. She struggles not to let herself be carried away by her daydreams and by all the feelings that make her heart seem to float, for she knows that her name would never secure her a future alongside the second in line to the Iron Throne.

    Yet, the more she fights to stay away from this flame, the more she will be drawn to it, for being loved by a Targaryen comes at a high price.

    Summary

    Two years after the devastating Dance of Dragons, Aemond Targaryen, the fearsome Kinslayer, now sat upon the throne of Westeros. Driven by a desire to strengthen his House, he was confronted by a well known fact- all the dragons had been slain from the world, leaving only their precious eggs as a painful reminder.

    'How could the House of the Dragon thrive without Dragons?'

    Lady Laviniya Targaryen, safely residing with her mother's family in The Runestone, was his long-forgotten cousin. She was as the small folk would refer to in the centuries to follow, 'The Bronze Dragoness.'

    Summary

    Condemned by her grandfather, King Viserys, to marry her uncle after a life-altering incident, Lucaera Velaryon gazed upon her future as if it were already lost.

    The King’s decree loomed over them like an unsheathed sword, Lucaera’s fate seemingly sealed. Yet she resolved otherwise.

    She would endure. She would fight for her happiness, quietly and resolutely. Despite all she had lost, she refused to let go of the last pieces of herself — her dreams, her hopes. She would not allow Aegon Targaryen to seize them from her.

    Summary

    The Targaryens are a fallen dynasty, one that has become rotten to the core. For they are a lesser house that should have perished in the fires brought about by the doom of Old Valyria. Now the surviving dragonlords lie in brood, clinging to the glory days of the past, desparate for a home they have never seen.

    This is what Taenysa's father always told her.

    She also knows that the great Sea-Snake of House Velaryon has always been kept on a tight leash by his vassal-kin, the Targaryens. But as the Valyrian eyes turn from West to East, to the great city-state of Qarth, the Pureborn lords must make a decision of appeasement.

    Gold for spices and silk. Fine vessels for passage into the clear waters of the Jade sea. A daughter for a son.

    A serpent for a dragon.

However, she harbours a deep and repulsive secret that could risk her execution. Her and her twin brother, Eirwyn Dayne, harbour a relationship greater than that of siblings. She must battle with these conflicting feelings as she manipulates the prince's vulnerabilities, dreaming to one day sit on the Iron Throne. War looms over the realm, and she cannot stay vigilant. Witnessing the agonising death of her mother who was tortured by prophetic dreams has left a scar upon her heart. As she falls deeper in love with the one eyed prince, these terrible dreams and her incestuous affair seek to ruin her.
