He refused everyone. Until her. For three hundred years, the ancient dragon Vhoryn has rejected every prospective rider. He is a legend of stubborn defiance, a creature of immense power who simply says 'no.' Until the Trials bring forth a girl from nowhere—someone who wasn't even paying attention. Thrust into an unbreakable bond neither of them wanted, they must navigate a dangerous world of ancient sigils, hidden vaults, and a shadowy network that has outlasted centuries of scrutiny. As their connection deepens into something warm, profound, and entirely theirs, they quickly realize that being the exception to a three-hundred-year rule puts a massive target on their backs. "The Rider The Dragons Refused" is a gripping dark fantasy that explores the weight of destiny and the power of a bond that was never supposed to exist.
