Mayara has always dreamed of joining the Sky Academy to become a sentinel, defending her kingdom from the threat of dragons.

But when she fails the entry trial, she’s forced to accept an offer from the charming thief Alayel: he can get her into the Academy—if she helps him with an impossible task. 

He wants to steal dragon eggs from the enemy.

In the land of ruthless monsters, plans are bound to collapse. Accosted by a magic-yielding rider, Mayara almost dies, and yet she’s saved by none other than a dragon, igniting a strange connection and allowing her to return to the academy victorious.

Meanwhile, Alayel reveals his identity as the bastard prince—and also shows his true colors. Ambitious, deceitful, and manipulative, he’s everything she’s always vowed to avoid. But he’s also alluring, attentive, and caring. With each day, it gets harder to resist his charms.

And with each day, she realizes that the academy harbors troubling, dark secrets. 

But to expose the truth, she’ll have to give up everything she’s fought so hard to gain—and face the wrath of her kingdom.

Some bonds are forged in fire. Some are meant to burn it all down.

Under Restless Skies is an epic enemies-to-lovers romantasy featuring steamy moments,  a morally gray thief and prince, badass dragons, ruthless riders, a heroine finding her power, and an academy hiding dangerous secrets. It's book 1 in the duology The Tempest Dragon.
