The Dragon Stone
Lauren H. Salisbury

Jocelyn Dalbot has spent the last two years supporting her sister’s rule while longing to escape the suffocating confines of palace life. Desperate for a way to break the sleeping curse on their father, she sets out to find a magical dragon stone with the power to restore him to health.
Unfortunately, the stone has been lost to the ages, and only a few scribbled notes in the margins of an ancient text provide a clue to its whereabouts. She ventures south, where she meets Theo, an enigmatic stranger who appears whenever she is most in need and also seems to be searching for the stone.
With war brewing and hidden parties working against them, Jocelyn must decide where her heart lies before the dragon stone, and her chance at happiness, is lost forever.
The Dragon Stone is a fantasy romance inspired by The Hare and The Tortoise.
