Heritage

A hidden mage. A dragon bond forbidden by decree. A prophecy awakening too soon. Camomile Layton has lived her entire life believing magic is dangerous-and best left forgotten. In Valmira, knights without magic ride dragons to keep power under Caerthalen's control. Mages are bound, silenced, and kept at a distance. When Cam's dormant abilities awaken, they do more than reveal what she is. They draw the attention of a dragon-and a rebellion-who need her more than she understands. As secrets surface and the Veil begins to fracture, Cam discovers her bloodline is tied to something far older than war. A prophecy broken into pieces. A Hollow force rising beyond the world she thought she knew. But prophecy is not destiny. To protect those she loves-and survive those who hunt her-Cam must choose who she will become in a world that was never built for someone like her. Perfect for readers who love character-driven epic fantasy, dragon bonds, slow-burn trust, and found family.
