description: Lord Jasen of Grumhul has a gambling problem. Or rather his father has the problem but since he's gambled away everything that was rightfully Jasen's it's become his problem too. With no money and no skills to earn a living his best bet for getting away from his father is to present himself for marriage at Court in the Draelands the kingdom at the center of the Allied Realms. Jasen's courtly manners aren't the most refined (to say the least) but he hopes he's still capable of attracting at least a minor lord.He isn't looking to cause a scandal but that's exactly what happens when he immediately attracts the attention of both a powerful dragon and King Rilvor himself. The King serves as the mystical link between the magic of the dragons and humankind; since the death of his wife two years before magic in the Allied Realms has suffered. He must take a spouse this year and the fight for his favor has gotten downright vicious.No one including Jasen himself thinks he's a proper match for the king. But the growing affection between them can't be denied. Jasen loves Rilvor but he's petrified about becoming lord consort to a king. Unfortunately the two can't be separated and Jasen must decide if true love is worth all the trouble.
