Book Club Read May: The Last Dragon King by Leia Stone

I can’t believe it’s already time to announce the book for next month! Remember to join the facebook group so we can all share our thoughts on this months book.

May is bringing dragons, destiny, and a dangerous secret to the Happily Ever After Book Club — and this one is perfect if you love fast-paced fantasy romance with high stakes and powerful magic.

For May 2026, we’ll be reading The Last Dragon King by Leia Stone.

Chosen by Magic. Bound by Fate.

The Dragon King is looking for a wife.

Across the kingdom, women of childbearing age are thrown into chaos as royal guards travel from village to village, collecting those powerful enough to produce an heir. There’s only one requirement: enough magic in her blood to continue the dragon line.

She knows she’s safe.

After all, she’s barely magical—only ten percent dragon lineage. Practically human. There’s no reason the magic sniffers should ever select her.

And yet… they do.

Summoned to Jade City and brought before the Dragon King himself, she believes her future is sealed—until her mother reveals a secret so dangerous it could get her executed. A truth that, if discovered, would make her not just unwanted… but a threat to the king himself.

Now she must survive a world of power, politics, and dragons while hiding who she really is—because the man she’s being offered to may be the very one who would kill her for the truth.

This is a bingeable, edge-of-your-seat read—perfect for May when you want something immersive, dramatic, and packed with magic and romance. Expect secrets, tension, and dragons in abundance.

As always, read at your own pace and share your thoughts, theories, and favourite moments in the group whenever you’re ready.
