Bernadette Blaumeer is a young woman living in the small, rainy town of Edmonton. Her days seem to blend together: working, reading, and getting nagged about why she isn't making any art anymore.

But one day, her younger sister Celia goes missing, and she has to travel to the “haunted” castle nearby and bring her back. But once they make it home, the occupant of the castle—a real, living dragon—reveals that he followed them, and that Celia has taken something from him. Bernadette agrees to take Celia’s punishment and travels with the dragon back to the castle. Though she's now imprisoned in the old castle, could she perhaps find happiness here...and maybe even romance?

* AssholeVictim: Edward. [[spoiler: He gets hit by lightning, falls down a tower, and is sent to the hospital…after he rallied the tower to raid the castle and kill a creature he was told was intelligent.]]
* BeastAndBeauty: Azrael the Third, a large, dark male dragon with a bad temper, and Bernadette, a human female with a slightly less bad temper.
* BerserkButton: Azrael’s is bringing up other dragons—specifically that he’s the only one in the castle.
* Bookworm: Azrael and Bernadette are both this.
* ColorCodedForYourConvenience: Dragons come [[spoiler: or came]] in a variety of colors. The color of their scales indicates what types of magic they specialize in.
* DarkIsNotEvil: Azrael the Third has dark green, almost black scales, and is proficient in shadow magic. He might seem like a cold-hearted jerk, but he’s also a decent healer, doesn’t like to see Bernadette in pain, and shares his library and his life with her.
* InterspeciesRomance: Develops between Azrael and Bernadette.
* HauntedCastle: The children in Edmonton believe the castle in the hills is this. There aren’t actually any ghosts—just a dragon who scares out visitors.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Azrael the Third is temperamental, and gets angry if Bernadette brings up certain topics or investigates things personal to him. But he never attacks her, saves her life even after she [[spoiler: entered his family tomb]], and heals her wounds.
* LastOfHisKind: Azrael isn’t sure whether or not he’s the last of the dragons. [[spoiler:At the end of the book, there’s a sign he might not be]]
* NotSoDifferent: Azrael and Bernadette find out they’re this. They can both be snarky, both love books, and [[spoiler: both know the pain of losing their parents.]]
* PromotionToParent: Alice, Bernadette’s older sister, takes on this role for Bernadette and Celia [[spoiler: after their parents die in a car crash.]]
* StepfordSnarker: Bernadette has shades of this. [[spoiler: After her parents die in a car crash]], she becomes numb and pained. One of her reactions to this is to become snarky about pretty much everything.
