Years ago, a rift between dimensions unleashed the drakoni — fierce dragon warriors — onto a devastated Earth. Humanity survives in fortified enclaves, armed with almost nothing effective against creatures that rule the sky. When Claudia is left as dragon bait by her community as punishment for scavenging outside the walls, the massive golden drakoni who finds her has no interest in killing — only in claiming her as his mate. Each of the ten books follows a different human woman paired with a drakoni male in the ruins of Fort Dallas.

Each book gives a different heroine center stage, but they share a template: resilient, funny, loyal women who navigate the terror of a post-apocalyptic world and the overwhelming possessiveness of a drakoni mate on their own terms. Claudia in book 1 sets the tone — funny, independent, and far tougher than the world gives her credit for.

Across ten books the series builds a rich cast of drakoni warriors and their human mates, culminating in Dark Fire — where Azar, the self-appointed tyrant of Fort Dallas, meets the one woman immune to his authority. The overarching threat of the Rift and the mystery of why the drakoni were pulled to Earth builds quietly beneath each romance, paying off in the final book with the Rift's closure and a new beginning for both species.
