When Pax, the last dragon in all the kingdoms, wakes from his centuries-long slumber, he seeks a worthy mortal to gift three scales which will grant three wishes. Once the wishes are complete, he plans to move on and never return to the Gemstone Kingdoms. For now, he craves adventure-and a new partner in his bed.
He chooses Bertram, the recently crowned Emerald King.
It has been thirty years since the Gemstone Kingdoms entered a new golden age, but peace is proving fragile. With opponents of magic reappearing, Bertram is unsure what to do . . . except to wish that he knew what the future might hold if he never became king.
"Be careful what you wish for" rings even truer when gifted by a dragon.
Bertram and Pax embark on a journey through time, across kingdoms, and into their own hearts to learn what may be missing from their lives and what they might want in a different future together.
