Sage Casey Ember-Brooks, who goes by Casey, is a fast-food worker and aspiring fantasy novelist whose ordinary life crumbles when mysterious strangers ask cryptic questions about her dragon series. Her recurring dreams of golden coins suddenly make terrifying sense when Marcus Chen—a businessman with eyes that flash gold—reveals that dragons are real, living hidden among humans for centuries. Casey's unnaturally accurate fantasy writing stems from awakening genetic memories. She's a rare "Convergence" bloodline capable of harmonising opposing elemental forces. The revelation comes at a critical time: a new cryptocurrency called DragonCoin, featuring symbols identical to her dreams, creates magical interference that weakens concealment spells protecting dragon society. At the Crossroads shopping complex where she works, disruptions cause dragons to flicker between human and true forms in full view of witnesses. Caught between Marcus (a traditionalist who wants to hide her with the Dragon Council) and the enigmatic Xaihuang (who advocates ending the masquerade entirely), Casey discovers an underground chamber housing ancient dragon artifacts. When she touches a magical coin, visions reveal three futures: chaotic revelation leading to war, continued concealment resulting in magical extinction, or a mysterious third path of integration. Casey realises DragonCoin wasn't created to expose dragons, but by another awakening hybrid like herself—someone in Seattle whose unconscious dragon heritage channels ancient power through modern technology. As magical concealment fails worldwide and dragons begin manifesting publicly, Casey must race across the country to find this unknown programmer before the interference between magic and technology tears reality apart. The story explores themes of identity, integration versus assimilation, and the collision between ancient power and digital-age innovation. With her awakening abilities growing stronger and the masquerade crumbling around her, Casey faces a choice that will determine her fate and the future relationship between the hidden magical world and human civilisation.

Laurens Leben wurde auf den Kopf gestellt, als ihr erwählter Gefährte von zehn Jahren sie für seine Schicksalsgefährtin verließ. Eine Gefährtin, die ihn einst für einen mächtigeren Alpha abgewiesen hatte. Mit ihrer Rückkehr in ihr Leben wurde Lauren alles genommen und sie blieb mit nichts zurück. Gebrochen und niedergeschlagen ging sie fort, unfähig den verzehrenden Schmerz des Verrats zu ertragen. Die Umstände zwangen sie zur Rückkehr, und sie fand einen unerwarteten Verbündeten in Alpha Sebastian. Ein Mann, der gleichermaßen gefürchtet wie verehrt wurde. Ein König ohne Thron, der sowohl über die Menschen- als auch die Wolfswelt herrschte. Er war außerdem der Erzfeind ihres ehemaligen Gefährten. Ihre Verbindung war ungewöhnlich. Er war zu kalt und sie entsprach nicht seinem Typ. Liebe stand nicht auf ihrer Agenda. Warum durchfuhr sie dann dieses Kribbeln, wenn er sie als seine bezeichnete? Und warum sah er sie an, als wäre sie seine Erlösung? Es stellte sich heraus, dass ihre Feinde ihre geringste Sorge war. Nicht wenn die wahre Gefahr im Feuer lag, das zwischen ihnen entfacht. Das Feuer, das sie in Liebe und Leidenschaft entflammen oder sie zerstören konnte. Hinweis: Dieses Buch ist eine Zwei-in-Eins-Ausgabe.
