No Escape as the Dragon King's Mate

A nurse is forced into a month-long mate bond with a ruthless Dragon King.

During a stormy Valentine's shift, nurse Lydia rescues a bleeding stranger and realizes he is Soren, the Dragon King who governs a concealed immortal world. He imposes a savage ultimatum: accept a thirty-day fated-mate contract or face immediate execution. Thrust into his lethal court, Lydia meets his tyranny with fierce resistance, yet every confrontation ignites an unwanted heat. As the deadline approaches, she must choose between reclaiming her freedom or surrendering to the ruler who holds her life in his claws.
