An enemies-to-lovers, cross-class, cosy romantasy, perfect for fans of Twin Crowns and The School For Good and Evil.

In Farren’s world, dragons are prized for their precious scales – giving the humans they bond with metal-crafting magic.

Farren’s family believe dragons are worth so much more, which is why they dedicate their lives to caring for them. It’s also the reason she hates people who exploit the incredible creatures. That includes her classmate James Murphy, an arrogant dragon racer whose silver-crafting family tops the social hierarchy but represent the worst of greed and dragon abuse – worse still, he's the biggest competition for the college scholarship Farren desperately needs.

When James unexpectantly gets a job her family's dragon sanctuary, it puts everything at risk. Farren isn't just the plain copper-crafter she seems. She's hiding a secret that could change not only her life, but society as a whole. And James has his own secret . . . a years-long crush on Farren. As the summer passes, hating James becomes harder than Farren thought, and suddenly Farren has a new secret to keep, the fact that she’s falling in love with James Murphy.
