Bound by Fire and Fate: A Billionaire Dragon Romance That Sizzles

When the Groom Is a Dragon, and the Vows Are Anything but Voluntary

Arranged marriages usually come with strings. But in Dragon’s Forever by Candace Ayers, the strings are bound in fire, fate, and more than a little smoke. This isn’t just a steamy bite-sized romance — it’s a bold, addictive plunge into the Brides for Beasts universe, where dragon shifters walk among billionaires and duty battles desire with every breath.

Short doesn’t mean soft. This story is packed with emotional tension, primal instinct, and an unforgettable alpha who has more than a treasure to protect. And at the heart of it all? A marriage no one asked for — and a love no one expected.

One Wedding. No Choice. And a Dragon in a Suit.

When the heroine finds herself thrust into an arranged marriage with a dragon-shifter billionaire, it’s not about love. It’s about alliances, obligation, and an old-world tradition that refuses to die — even in a modern world.

But dragons? They don’t do quiet. They don’t do submissive. And they definitely don’t fall for their brides — not unless the bond is real.

The male lead is everything you want in a paranormal billionaire: powerful, commanding, and hiding secrets beneath that tailored exterior. He’s not a man easily swayed. But his new wife? She’s not here to be owned.

What begins as cold agreement quickly shifts into heated glances, unexpected vulnerability, and the kind of chemistry that threatens to turn a contract into something dangerous. Something eternal.

Tropes with Teeth and Emotion That Burns

Candace Ayers knows how to twist tropes in ways that feel both familiar and freshly addictive. Dragon’s Forever is a feast for fans of intense dynamics, subtle tenderness, and off-the-charts heat.

Tropes that ignite in this story:

• Arranged marriage, with emotional stakes that escalate fast
• Dragon shifter romance, but set in a sleek, modern billionaire world
• Enemies-to-lovers energy, laced with sharp dialogue and slow surrender
• Possessive alpha, but not in a way that overshadows the heroine’s growth
• The short, spicy format still lands emotional depth and satisfying arcs

The emotional core of this story isn’t just the bond forming between two reluctant strangers — it’s the way they break through each other’s walls. She teaches him that power isn’t control. He teaches her that vulnerability doesn’t equal weakness. Together, they ignite something ancient, something sacred.
