Dragon Defender by Leela Ash

She is desperate for the truth…but will the answers she seeks be worth the price?

Two years on, Dakota Vance is still haunted by the memory of her dead sister. When a mysterious Shifter offers a chance to learn the terrible truth, it opens a door to a strange new world. But her thirst for vengeance comes crashing to a halt when she falls in love with a red-haired Dragon.
Danger circles the First Flight of Dragons. The evil Fangs of Apophis have, at last, discovered the location of the Wellspring. Dragon Michael Farrell prepares to defend the Wellspring with his life. But as the Flight gathers for war, he meets Dakota. Suddenly he is caught, trapped between a love he did not expect and a duty he cannot abandon. Worse, his beloved claims that one of the Flight is a murderer. Can his brother Dragon truly be stained with innocent blood?

As a dark net of treachery and deceit closes around them, the only thing they can depend on is their love. But when the Fangs unleash an ancient evil, will their passion be enough to save the Wellspring? Can love pierce the sorrow that shrouds Dakota’s heart, and reveal the difference between vengeance and justice?
