A man cursed by a demon. A woman who’s memories are more than just her own. An enemy sworn to destroy all their dreams. A destiny that none of them expected. Cursed to live by day as a dragon and by night as a man, Gabriel believes he will forever be alone after the murder of his beloved Danielle. That is, until the night he meets Alayia and everything changes. Together, they must figure out the truth of the curse that Innok has placed on Gabriel as well as those from his visions. Their quest will bring them deep into the heart of the evil, but with her abilities and the spirit of the dragon within, they might just unlock the truth of the past and break the curse. If they can keep the demon from winning too fast.
