Never Again (Again)

NEVER AGAIN (AGAIN) For a year, Dame Alice has climbed the Redcrown every morning to slay the dragon. For a year, the dragon has let her try. Rakshaza, the Red Storm, is three thousand years old, impossibly powerful, and thoroughly bored. Alice is the kingdom’s chosen hero, armed with a legendary sword, twenty years of training, and absolutely no idea when to quit. Their daily duels have become a local institution, their insults a finely honed art, and neither would dream of breaking the routine. Then one night, everything goes horribly, wonderfully wrong. Now there are rules to follow, secrets to keep, and a town full of people who really ought to stop taking bets on their private lives. Alice has a kingdom’s expectations to contend with. Rakshaza has a reputation for terror to maintain. And neither of them has the slightest intention of admitting that the most dangerous thing on the mountain isn’t a dragon. It’s falling in love with one. Because slaying a dragon is simple. Falling into bed with her is complicated. And staying away afterwards? Well. Never again. Probably. — Description from novelcodex.orgFull novel: Never Again (Again) — read the rest free on N​o⁠v​e⁠l​C⁠o​d⁠e​x⁠.​o⁠r​g⁠
