Challenge of the Court
Blurb:
I'm supposed to be meeting with Emory's dragon Court and amazing them with my suave wit and shining intellect. Instead I'm on the trail of a kidnapper. Someone has stolen away a centaur teenager, Alfie, from a magical circus. The circus master has hired me and Gato to find out who took him - hopefully before Alfie swims with the fishes.
The problem is, no one in the circus is who they say they are. The Other Circus is a front for a magical underground, helping those that want to leave their magical lives far behind. They've spent years keeping their heads down and their mouths shut and it's going to take more than asking nicely to get this bunch to crack.
The clock is ticking, not just to find Alfie, but also for me to impress Emory's dragon Court. When I finally meet them, I'm going to have to pass through a series of consort challenges before they'll recognise me as Emory's intended mate. Oh, and they won't tell me what's a challenge, and what's not. Nothing is what it seems, but luckily I come with an inbuilt lie detector. I'm itching to prove to the standoffish dragon-shifters that I'm more than a pretty face but finding Alfie has to come first.
I'm juggling things as best I can, but all it will take is one wrong move to bring everything crashing down on my head ...

Über den Autor / die Autorin
Heather is an urban fantasy writer and mum. She was born and raised near Windsor, which gave her the misguided impression that she was close to royalty in some way. She is not, though she once she got a letter from the Queen's lady-in-waiting. Heather went to university in Liverpool, where she took up skydiving and met her future husband. When she's not running around after her children, she's plotting her next book and daydreaming about vampyrs, dragons and kick-ass heroines. Heather is a book lover who grew up reading Brian Jacques and Anne McCaffrey. She loves to travel and once spent a month in Thailand. She vows to return.
