He was the answer to all her deepest desires, but their forbidden love would either bring their worlds tighter – or tear them both apart...
    
Searching for her missing brother, Grace Carlyle never dreamed she would discover a secret world populated by mythological monster – or find herself facing a sword-wielding being whose looks put mortal men to shame.
    
But there he was, Darius en Kragin, one of a race of shape-shifting warriors bound to guard the gates of Atlantis, and kill all travellers who attempted to stray.
    
Now Grace’s life is in his hands, and Darius has to choose between his centuries-old vow and the woman who has slipped beneath his defences and stolen the heart of Atlantis’s fiercest dragon.
