Rated 4.07 out of 5 stars, based on 53,309 reviews.

Dragon Bound by Thea Harrison introduces Pia Giovanni, a half-human, half-Wyr woman who has survived by staying unnoticed in a world of dragons, shapeshifters, and ancient magic. When blackmail forces her to steal a single coin from the hoard of Dragos Cuelebre, the most feared dragon of the Wyrkind, she triggers a violent pursuit that pulls her into supernatural politics and the long-standing tensions with the Dark Fae. Dragos’s fury turns to fascination once he captures her, and their uneasy alliance blends enemies-to-lovers romance with urban fantasy intrigue. The novel balances sensual, adult relationships with power struggles, dangerous magic, and a strong focus on consent and autonomy as Pia refuses to surrender her independence.
