Nyssa Vale has spent her life believing she is the disappointing half of a mismatched pair of sisters. Her twin shines, her foster family treats Nyssa like an inconvenience, and the strange creature beneath her skin has never behaved the way everyone insists a serpent should. Blackthorn Academy is supposed to be her chance to start over. Instead, Nyssa learns almost immediately that the truth is far bigger: she is not a snake shifter at all. She is a dragon. Keeping that secret would be difficult under ordinary circumstances. It becomes nearly impossible when she is placed in a house with some of the most powerful young Fae on campus. Draven is charming and dangerous. Kael is guarded, sharp-edged, and carrying secrets of his own. Rowan, Silas, Caelan, and the rest of their circle turn Nyssa's quiet plan for an anonymous education into a maze of royal politics, attraction, loyalty, and hidden identities. At an academy where elite families can bend rules and gossip can destroy lives, trust becomes more valuable than magic. Nyssa must learn what her dragon means, who deserves the truth, and whether the powerful bonds forming around her are protection or another way to lose control of her future. The Dragonbound Serpent Queen is a dragon shifter academy romance of self-discovery, royal secrets, found family, dangerous attraction, and a heroine finally claiming the power everyone overlooked.
