Reclusive monster hunter Meixin’s life is full of secrets.
The first: she doesn’t hunt monsters. She saves them, bringing them to her hidden isle where they can live in peace. The second: she is a monster, the last dragon in the world. Or so she thinks.
So when Faran the Green, a charming sorcerer, hires her to hunt a dragon for him, Meixin jumps at the chance to find her kind – even if it means pretending to hunt alongside him.
It’s only a temporary alliance. Meixin knows that humans aren’t to be trusted, even pretty ones who speak gently to flowers and do not mind her scars. But when their hunt comes to a head, she must choose a side – man or monster – even if the line between them is only as thin as water . . .
