'Megan Bannen has created a world that you'll never want to leave and characters that will carve a spot into your heart. This series is playfully unique, delightfully steamy, utterly romantic, and overall unmissable!' β€” Ali Hazelwood

From the author of The Undertaking of Hart and Mercy, comes a delightful fantasy with a best friends-to-lovers rom com twist, imagine When Harry Met Sally, but with dragons!

The town of Eternity was shocked when widowed, middle-aged Twyla Banneker partnered up with her best friend, Frank Ellis, to join the Tanrian Marshals. Eight years later, her career remains a welcome change from the domestic grind of mum life.

Fortunately (or unfortunately), the job is a lot safer these days... and a lot less exciting. So when Twyla and Frank find a glitter-covered body near a dragon-sized footprint, they're ready to be back in action.

Soon, a handsome scientist arrives to assist with the investigation. To Twyla's delight and Frank's consternation, Dr. Quill Vanderlinden finds Twyla as fascinating as the newly discovered dragons.

As Twyla and Frank are drawn deeper into a nefarious plot with more twists than a Tanrian mineshaft, danger closes in on all sides. Will their easy friendship survive the adventure or is it about to ignite into something more?

'A truly outstanding romantic fantasy.' β€” India Holton, author of The Wisteria Society of Lady Scoundrels

'Megan Bannen remains the queen of swoons upon swoons upon swoons! The Undertaking of Hart and Mercy is a playful, quirky gem full of feels and guaranteed to deliver the perfect grumpy/sunshine fix!' β€” Sierra Simone

'Seamlessly blends fantasy, romance, and modern family dynamics, all while making you laugh until you (literally) cry... I love this book so much that I would bury bodies for Twyla and Frank so deep no one would ever find them.' β€” Lish McBride, author of Rough Around the Hedges

'Romantic, wildly creative, and utterly charming, The Undertaking of Hart and Mercy is a fantasy unlike any I've read before.' β€” Lana Harper, author of Payback's a Witch

'The Undertaking of Hart and Mercy broke my heart, put it back together, then tucked me into bed with a forehead kiss. Packed with earnest characters, wit, action, and reluctant yearning, this is easily my favourite fantasy romance of the year.' β€” Jen DeLuca, author of Well Met

'A uniquely charming mixture of whimsy and th.'
