Iron flame ( Book 2 in The Empyrean series )

Violet Sorrengail survived her first year at Basgiath War College—but survival was only the beginning. Now the real training starts. With enemies both outside the kingdom and within its walls, Violet must push past her physical limits, strengthen her bond with her dragons, and face truths that could unravel everything she thought she knew. As secrets about the war come to light, trust becomes dangerous—and love even more so. Xaden Riorson carries burdens of his own, and the tension between duty and desire threatens to ignite alongside the rebellion.
