When a spirited young woman with a penchant for adventure finds herself locked away in a dragon's tower, she realizes that fate has a peculiar sense of humor when it comes to her romantic prospects in this laugh-out-loud fantasy rom-com, perfect for fans of Legends & Lattes and The Dragon's Bride.
All children are told fairytales. Some are epic adventures with high stakes and exciting twists but others are tales of pitiful princesses trapped in boring towers pining for their Prince Charmings to come and rescue them. But one young woman always hated those stories. Why didn't they get up and rescue themselves? Little did she know that her own fate would take a similarly ironic turn. Because now, here she is. Stuck. In a tower. Turns out, when a dragon holds you hostage, he doesn't just let you get up and leave.
Who knew?
And just when she thinks she sees hope on the horizon, that hope is smashed to bits by—you guessed it—another damn dragon.

As a child, Cherry didn't understand why princesses trapped in towers had to wait around to be rescued. After being taken by a dragon, she understands a bit more. Planning her escape, she is inadvertently saved by another dragon, Dante, who claims he is her soulmate. Addison's talents are showcased in this lively and hilarious fantasy-romance.

      Hijinks abound when a prickly dragon-shifter accidentally claims his fated mate without wooing her first. Fiery and a little reckless, Cherry Hotpepper has spent the last five years cooped up in an aging dragon-shifter's island tower. Her captor has never said a word to her, and she isn't entirely sure why he hasn't eaten her. Yet every escape attempt ends the same way: with someone forcefully returning her to the dragon's keep. So when another dragon-shifter shows up and offers to help her get home, Cherry leaps at the chance, but she's already drugged the newcomer with a powerful hallucinogen. Little does she know that Dante Remnac can barely keep his hands off her--and that was even before he was doped up. In the aftermath of a monumental war, Dante's few remaining friends have all found human women to love. Even so, he hasn't been actively looking for a bride; stumbling upon his fated mate while visiting his father's old friend Gideon was merely a happy accident. Still riding high on an ayahuasca trip that sees him chastised by a talking banana after his arms crawl away from him, Dante bites Cherry's neck, sharing his magic with her and jump-starting their honeymoon...before he's even learned her last name. Readers in search of character-driven stories will find much to love here, as Cherry, Dante, and a wide cast of secondary characters are all fully realized people. Unwilling to put her family in danger by telling her new husband where they live, Cherry waffles between wanting to escape and yearning for more of Dante's--literally--electrifying touch. Neither of them realizes her sister is married to his friend, leading to an abundance of miscommunication that never betrays the novel's overall coziness. Lemming's latest is a gleefully flirty romp through a fantasyland tinged with shades of Diana Wynne Jones and Heather Fawcett. A concentrated burst of monster-loving, enemies-to-lovers fun.
