Shadowhart (Dragonhart, Book 2) Abbie Eaton 9780008710163

'A hell of a debut novel. Dragonhart is the kind of fantasy that had everything I need; enemies-to-lovers, a strong FMC seeking revenge, magic and DRAGONS'

'This is genuinely the first book I've read where I can safely say that anyone who liked Fourth Wing will love it!'

An ancient prophecy. An impossible choice. An inevitable war.

In the newly formed kingdom of Flambriar, Arla Reinhart is growing restless. Her body craves to train, like the assassin she once was. Thara, the dragon Arla is bonded with, fulfilling an ancient prophecy and making her a Dragonhart, urges her to follow her desires.

But Arla has made a promise to Hark Stappen, her priority is to protect the people of Flambriar and keep them safe from the King of Hadalyn.

When Arla accepts an invitation to visit another kingdom, she sets in motion the prophecy she knows so little about. She must learn to trust herself and Thara, following a path she believes is right. But a darkness beyond Arla's comprehension is stirring and she must make a decision that could shatter her heart. Will she betray the people she loves most?

'Captivating... had me hooked. The combination of dragons, magic, and adventure created an exciting and immersive world that was hard to put down'

'A must-read for fantasy lovers'

'[A] character-driven fantasy with enemies-to-lovers romance, complex heroines seeking vengeance, and richly developed worlds where lost magic and political intrigue intertwine'

'Fans of Fourth Wing and When the Moon Hatched, this fantasy debut is the perfect addition to your TBR'

'I am OBSESSED with this book! It had so many things that I love: Dragons, Enemies (sort of) to Lovers, Reluctant Allies, (sort of) Slow Burn and an interesting and engaging plotline'

'Our FMC is sassy and stabby and I love her. Our MMC Hark is mysterious and swoonworthy. The banter was on point'

'The world-building is rich, the plot twists are jaw-dropping, and did I mention the dragons? Fans of series like Throne of Glass and Fourth Wing will find themselves right at home in this exhilarating tale'

'Plenty of political intrigue, more than one found family, and a beautiful slow burn enemies to lovers romance'
