Talon by Julie Kagawa


Long ago, dragons were hunted to near extinction by the Order of St. George, the Dragon Slayer community. Now the dragons are getting stronger and more cunning, impersonating humans, and secretly increasing their population. Talon, the only dragon organization, plans to rule the world and enslave humans.

After decades of rigorous training in a hidden facility, Ember Hill, a young dragon, is finally allowed to mingle with humans. Ember is determined to enjoy this summer to the fullest before Talon takes his freedom back. And when a mysterious young man named Garret appears, Ember falls in love. Whereas the dragons should only love wealth and power, humans are only prey for them. While Ember struggles with his feelings, he doesn't realize that Garret has a secret that could put his life in danger.
