I have a secret: I'm a half-human, half-dragon hybrid living in plain sight in the humans-only city of Yerba Buena. There are others like me, pretending to be fully human, in a world where dragons are exiled to reservations and face the death penalty if caught in a human settlement. On the eve of a dragon invasion, someone leaks footage of me shape-shifting into a dragon. We dragon hybrids were created to serve as covert operatives in a new dragon war against humans.

Bitter Lips, Sweet Heart is a unique collection of romantic poetry first assembled by a group of young male college students who got together to read poetry and drink tea every week, thinking themselves spurned romantics and talented poets.
