Ignite - Rise of the Empress, #3

If you're only ever going to see yourself as a person who made a massive mistake, you'll never become anything beyond that. Since escaping royal life, Imperial Princess Redrinna has avoided anything that would force her back into the role of a princess. However, in order to continue protecting the friends she holds dear, she'll have to choose between staying hidden or facing her greatest fear head-on. Redrinna and her friends go on the hunt for another dragon but quickly discover it's missing.
While searching for clues, they discover three of the Dragon Gem's chosen-River, Thala, and Leonora-and the decrepit city of Póli, a place ruled by corrupt officials once responsible for conscripting children for war. While Redrinna refuses to be something she's not-a princess-she also can't turn her back on the people. However, if she's discovered by the officials, the fate that awaits her is worse than death: she'll fall into Osiris's hands for good. In order to save them and herself, Redrinna will have to find a courage and strength she's never had or she'll lose it all.
