❤️‍🔥 DISCOVER THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLING ROMANTASY PHENOMENON AND CELTIC-INSPIRED WORLD OF DRAGONS AND SIZZLING ROMANCE ❤️‍🔥

*ALREADY OBSESSED? PRE-ORDER A QUEEN CROWNED IN FLAMES NOW*

Born to rule. Blessed by fire. Broken by desire.

Once a territory built on matriarchal rule, Tìr Teine has been without a female heir for centuries and an oppressive anti-magic teaching has infected the land - leading to the tragic decline of the dragons.

Gifted with fire magic from the Goddess Brigid, Aemyra has hidden in the shadows for years, waiting for the king to die so she can bond to his dragon, claim her birthright and protect her people.

But when her carefully laid plans are foiled, Aemyra is thrust into a deadly game of politics and plots. Her greatest enemy? Prince Fiorean - the dragon-riding, fire-wielding royal whose icy arrogance and raw power thwart her every step.

As chaos engulfs the court, Aemyra and Fiorean are forced to forge an uneasy alliance that ignites into something neither of them can control.

Behind enemy lines and slowly falling for the one man she cannot trust, Aemyra begins to uncover the true weight of the crown. How much is she willing to sacrifice to claim her throne?

Hazel McBride grew up in Scotland, gaining her BSc in Psychology at the University of Glasgow, before living in the Caribbean, Spain and France. She is now settled in the Netherlands with her Dutch husband and is fluent in four languages.

As a former zookeeper, Hazel loves writing about magical and fantastical creatures and as a bisexual author with anxiety, she focuses on writing queer characters and exploring topics such as mental illness within her work. Most of her work draws heavy inspiration from her Scottish heritage and Celtic folklore.

When she isn't writing, Hazel can be found eating chocolate and watching shows that fuel her daydreams about morally grey villains - at least until her incessantly energetic border collie, Whiskey, forces her to get off the couch.
