When former city girl Liana Reyes trades skyscrapers for chickens in the sleepy little town of Harmony Glen, she expects peace, quiet, and maybe a little dirt under her nails. What she gets instead is a runaway flock, a mysterious dragon egg, and her gruff, enormous, and startlingly attractive neighbor: a lion-man war veteran who runs the local vet clinic and has the emotional range of a rock.
Roarke doesn’t need complications. He’s got enough to manage with injured chimeras, emotional scars from a galactic war, and now—thanks to Liana—a baby dragon that insists on living in a chicken coop. He tells himself he’s only helping because of the dragon. And the chickens. And maybe the way she bakes warm, sweet ube pandesal with cheese when she’s nervous.
She’s sunshine and chaos. He’s claws and caution.
But when feelings sneak in like stray animals, neither of them is prepared for what comes next.
