Wingswept: The Dragon and the Dove
by Thérèse Judeana
Dragons in the mountains.
Dragons in the ice.
Dragons on the road.
Dragons are extinct – that’s what Alandis was taught. That history is rewritten when Alandis runs from the breaking of her heart, and by strange circumstance, is pitched into a legendary role of protection. In the midst of fighting her own dragons and shielding her people, Alandis doesn’t see the danger lurking in the shadows until it’s too late.

TESTIMONIALS
“This story soars higher than the dragons it depicts, taking readers on an emotional and action-filled journey that begins with a concept so universal in the human experience: running away from what hurts us. This latest novel by Therese Judeana does not disappoint!” – Chantal LaFortune, co-author with Grace Bourget of The Song of Elbereth
“Wingswept is a tale of finding worth and purpose even in the midst of despair and apparent failure: the value of life even when one longs to lose it, a story of the journey to grace and love.” – Grace Bourget, author of Ad Maré: Song of the Pleiades and Light of Faith: Poems and Plays
