Synopsis

"Dragons are not born with amber eyes, fire, or wings. Only Awen doesn't know this. He awoke on a deserted beach fully formed, thinking all dragons are born this way until he meets Grace, an adolescent who belongs to a community of dragons that are very different from him. The mystery deepens when through a series of mishaps, Grace is transformed into a fire breathing, flying, amber eyed dragon like Awen. After being ostracized, these two dragons embarked on a journey to find others like themselves and the how and why of their differences."--Publisher
