The Gypsy and the Dragon of Eldoria
by Loret Camargo · May 1991
King Alejandro IX returns from three years in Asia a legend — the Dragon King. But the moment he sets foot in Eldoria, six pirate ships appear on the horizon. At their head is Zara the Wanderer, a fierce gypsy captain who defeats the king himself in a public duel… and steals his heart in the process.
Fifteen years earlier, they met as children on a sunlit beach where colorful fish danced in the waves and a small black pebble sealed a promise neither of them could forget. Now fate has brought them together again — one a battle-scarred king, the other a woman cursed since birth as the “twin of misfortune,” abandoned by her noble family and raised among pirates.
Together they sail the Aegean on the infamous Black Dragon, chasing an ancient gypsy map that could break Zara’s curse forever. But danger closes in from every side: a treacherous sister plotting to seize the throne, jealous pirates willing to sell her for gold, assassination attempts, and the weight of a kingdom that may never accept a gypsy queen.
In a sweeping tale of passion, adventure, and redemption, a king must choose between power and love, and a woman who has never been wanted must learn to believe she deserves to be chosen — twice.
Perfect for fans of enemies-to-lovers romance, pirate adventures, fated mates, and strong heroines who conquer both the sea and the heart of a dragon.
