Live. Laugh. Carve your heart out while you wait for the girl of your dreams to grow up.

Melisandra has a witch for a mother and goodness knows who or where her father is. She will beg, borrow and steal for her place in honourable society. At sixteen, her dream is to inherit and revamp the shop of the local apothecary when the old bat shoves her out the door. The local inn is the only place that’ll hire her and only if she’ll lie about her age. At least some of the patrons are wealthy, but the things the server girls do to see that coin transfer to them… Mellie picks out her target – a money-splashing fool by the name of Oz – but life has other plans.

Tamerlin is a dragon prince travelling the neighbouring lands incognito. Dressed like one of his bodyguards, he is drawn to Melisandra. It’s not just her looks and the string in his heart tethering them, but her quiet cunning and observations powers that set his heart ablaze to claim her as his own. No matter how set she is on winning the affections of another man.

Will Mellie make the right choice? Will Tam forgive her for shattering his heart? And how do you protect yourself against decades of watching the love of your life make mistake after mistake?
