TO BRING A HATCHLING HOME

Dragons are off-limits. It’s why all the wrong people want to get their hands on one.

Tamsyn Credge has spent her entire life on her family’s ranch learning two things: how to care for the animals in her charge, and how to put everyone else’s needs before her own. She’s never had reason to picture a life beyond the ranch—and she certainly never imagined a dragon would change that.

When a pair of thieves accidentally leave a stolen dragon egg behind on her family’s land, Tamsyn does the sensible, selfless thing: she turns the hatchling over to Milo Wibble, an expert on magical creatures, so she can return to the life expected of her.

There’s just one problem: the hatchling has already formed an imprint that can’t be broken.

According to Milo, the only way to save it is to get the dragon home to the safety of its own kind…a thousand miles south across the continent. And with the thieves still hunting for their prize and winter closing in, there’s no time to waste.

Tamsyn begrudgingly sets out on a dangerous road with Milo, a baby dragon, and a collection of ornery animal companions. But somewhere between unexpected adventures, crackling campfires, and Milo’s uncanny ability to see more in Tamsyn than she sees in herself, she begins to wonder:

What if the life everyone planned for her was never the life she was meant for?

For readers who love the whimsical adventures of The Hobbit and Brigands & Breadknives, To Bring a Hatchling Home is a cozy fantasy road adventure about unlikely companions, exciting encounters, and finding the courage to become who you’ve always wanted to be.
