Dopo aver trascorso quasi diciotto mesi nell’accademia militare di Basgiath, Violet Sorrengail sa che non c’è più tempo per le lezioni. O per l’incertezza. La guerra è davvero iniziata e, con i nemici in avvicinamento e ormai infiltrati all’interno dei loro ranghi, è impossibile sapere di chi fidarsi. Violet dovrà spingersi oltre le deboli difese di Aretia alla ricerca di alleati che possano schierarsi al fianco di Navarra.

Dalla ballerina d'élite Allie Rousseau ci si aspetta la perfezione. Sempre. A ogni costo. Ma quando un infortunio mette a repentaglio tutto ciò per cui ha sacrificato ogni cosa, Allie torna a Haven Cove, nel rifugio estivo della sua infanzia, per guarire. O almeno provarci. Qui, in mezzo a onde gelide, silenzi carichi di dolore e fantasmi che non l'hanno mai davvero lasciata, rivede Hudson Ellis: il ragazzo che l'ha salvata una volta, e che poi ha spezzato il suo cuore in mille pezzi.

Tutti si aspettavano che Violet Sorrengail morisse durante il suo primo anno all'accademia militare di Basgiath, compresa lei stessa. Ma la Trebbiatura è stata solo la prima, difficilissima prova per eliminare i candidati più insicuri, indegni e sfortunati. Ora inizia l'addestramento vero e proprio, e Violet già si chiede come farà a superarlo. Perché non sarà soltanto terribilmente estenuante, brutale e progettato per testare la capacità dei cavalieri di resistere al dolore oltre ogni limite.

Twenty-year-old Violet Sorrengail was supposed to enter the Scribe Quadrant, living a quiet life among books and history. Now, the commanding general—also known as her tough-as-talons mother—has ordered Violet to join the hundreds of candidates striving to become the elite of Navarre: dragon riders. But when you’re smaller than everyone else and your body is brittle, death is only a heartbeat away...because dragons don’t bond to “fragile” humans. They incinerate them. With fewer dragons willing to bond than cadets, most would kill Violet to better their own chances of success.

Dopo aver rinunciato a tutto con un brutale divorzio, alla casa di New York, agli amici e persino al suo orgoglio, la ventottenne Georgia Stanton deve ricominciare da capo. Tornata in Colorado, nella tenuta della defunta bisnonna, si ritrova faccia a faccia con Noah Harrison, autore bestseller di storie d'amore, arrogante tanto di persona quanto nelle interviste. E che lei sia dannata se il bello scrittore è convinto che sarà lui a finire l'ultimo romanzo di sua nonna.

Everyone expected Violet Sorrengail to die during her first year at Basgiath War College–Violet included. But Threshing was only the first impossible test meant to weed out the weak-willed, the unworthy, and the unlucky. Now the real training begins, and Violet’s already wondering how she’ll get through. It’s not just that it’s grueling and maliciously brutal, or even that it’s designed to stretch the riders’ capacity for pain beyond endurance. It’s the new vice commandant, who’s made it his personal mission to teach Violet exactly how powerless she is–unless she betrays the man she loves.

After nearly eighteen months at Basgiath War College, Violet Sorrengail knows there's no more time for lessons. No more time for uncertainty. Because the battle has truly begun, and with enemies closing in from outside their walls and within their ranks, it’s impossible to know who to trust. Now Violet must journey beyond the failing Aretian wards to seek allies from unfamiliar lands to stand with Navarre. The trip will test every bit of her wit, luck, and strength, but she will do anything to save what she loves—her dragons, her family, her home, and him.
