Summary
from Goodreads:
Don't just fight the system…burn it.
Since
discovering she is a shape-shifting, fire-breathing dragon on her sixteenth
birthday (surprise!), Bryn McKenna’s world has been thrown into chaos. Being a
“crossbreed”—part Red dragon and part Blue—means Bryn will never fit in. Not
with dragon society. Not with the archaic and controlling Directorate. And
definitely not when she has striped hair and a not-so-popular affection for
rule-breaking…
But
sneaking around with her secret boyfriend, Zavien, gets a whole lot harder when
he’s betrothed to someone else. Someone who isn't a mixed
breed and totally forbidden. And for an added complication, it turns out Bryn’s
former archnemesis Jaxon Westgate isn’t quite the evil asshat
she thought. Now she’s caught between her desire to fit in and a need to set
things on fire. Literally.
Because
if Bryn can’t adapt to the status quo…well, then maybe it’s time for her
to change it.

Excerpt
Jaxon’s eyes went flat and hard. The lines of his face seemed to sharpen. He moved to stand toe to toe with the other Blue, who no longer seemed so sure of himself.
“If you cross me, I will do all within my power to make your life a living hell.” Frost shot from Jaxon’s lips with every word.
The other Blue’s gaze darted back and forth, checking to see if anyone planned on stepping in. All the other students in the vicinity seemed to find their shoes or the sky interesting. None returned the boy’s gaze. Shoulders slumped, the Blue kept his gaze down. “I apologize for my rude comment.”
“And?” Jaxon leaned in forcing the boy to retreat a step.
“And it will never happen again.” Apology complete, the young man bolted down the sidewalk, shifted, and took to the air.
Jaxon glanced around at the students who’d witnessed the incident. “Feel free to share this with your friends.”
The other students scattered like leaves in the wind. When his gaze landed on Bryn, she grinned at him. “I never thought I’d say these words, but I’m proud of you.”
He rolled his eyes. “Now my life is complete.”

Summary
from Goodreads:
If her love life is going down in flames, she might as well spark a
revolution.
Finding out on your sixteenth birthday you’re a shape-shifting dragon is tough to swallow. Being hauled off to an elite boarding school is enough to choke on.
Since Bryn is the only crossbreed at the Institute for Excellence, all eyes are on her, but it’s a particular black dragon, Zavien, who catches her attention.
Zavien is tired of the Council’s rules. Segregated clans, being told who to love, and close-minded leaders make freedom of choice almost impossible. The new girl with the striped hair is a breath of fresh air, and with Bryn’s help, they may be able to change the rules.
At the Institute, old grudges, new crushes, and death threats are all part of a normal day for Bryn. She’ll need to learn to control her dragon powers if she wants to make it through her first year at school. But even focusing on staying alive is difficult when you’re falling for someone you can't have.
