📖 I’m definitely used to coming to RL Caulder for why choose, but she rocks the MF fantasy game too! Edath is a new world full of dragons, dragon shifters, and humans — broken down into four kingdoms. In this story, we are based in the Northern kingdom of Andrathya where the undine dragons live. Their magical specialities are ice and water. While in the other kingdoms, the dragons and humans live together, in Andrathya a curse was placed on the dragon shifters creating a rift between them and the humans. In an attempt at peace, the human King offers up his human daughter, Sia, for an arranged marriage with the dragon King, Theo. They are both initially set on hating each other and only interesting in using each other to break the curse, but before long they start to feel chemistry, possessive urges, and more. Watching them battle each other, their own feelings, and everything else that comes their way was so much fun! They are both such hard headed characters that struggle to be vulnerable, but once they are, it’s magical! And OMG I need my own Kaida IMMEDIATELY!!! You have to read to meet him! The absolute cutest and coolest little dude!
