The Fire Within: An Impossible Prequel

Long ago, the mighty phoenixes were a sight to behold. They lived in peace beside humans and other mythical beasts...until humans discovered their weaknesses and destroyed everything.

After hundreds of years of watching her people perish, Naomi is left alone and broken. It's not all bad, though. After all, a life of hiding that she's a firebird shifter is made easy when she's lost her ability to shift.

When a lone injured dragon, who just so happens to be her fated mate and the son of her sworn enemy, drops into Naomi's peaceful existence, all hell breaks loose.

Will her fight-or-flight instincts kick in?

Or will her inner fire take over and leave her nothing but a smoldering pile of ash?
