Beginning:
Letter from Lily YuFriday 56:
It had all started on a fairly normal day. Normal, that is, if your husband is a werewolf and the two of you are hanging out with your brother-in-law -- also a werewolf and maybe the deadliest man in the world -- and your best friends, who include a sorcerer, a Rhej, and a part-sidhe computer geek.
What did you tell her? Rule asked.
Night had fallen. A single mage light hovered up near the ceiling of the cell, courtesy of their jailers. A lot of people here had enough of a Gift to float a mage light or two. Lily and Cynna sat on one of the blankets, huddled up so close an observer could have been forgiven for thinking they were lovers. "I said I required proof of her intentions, and that returning my weapons and ammo would make fairly solid proof."
Cynna snorted. "Like that's gonna happen."
The battle against a vengeful goddess reaches a climactic point as Lily Yu must now face the ultimate challenge in a dangerous new realm—without her husband, Rule …
When a mission to rescue five children stolen by an Old One falls apart under the assault of a demon prince, Lily wakes up in a strange reality—and is immediately taken captive by the dragon spawn who rule there. Jumping worlds has fractured her party, and Cynna is her only companion.
Although the clock is ticking, time works differently, and Lily has miraculously gained a week. That means seven days to free herself, find Rule and the others, rescue the children, and make it home alive. All before the dragon spawn holding her hostage trade her to the Old One. It would almost be doable if this weren’t Lóng Jia—also known as Dragonhome: the birthplace of dragons.
