Why these tropes fit
An outcast heroine, hardened by a turbulent past and armored in emotional walls, finds those defenses breached by a dragon whose presence resurrects long-buried feelings. Set against an active rebellion and a fight for personal freedom, her guarded resistance gives way to a slow-burn connection, while the central tension of fate versus choice and the risk of repeating past mistakes drives the angst-laden romantic arc within an expansive urban-science fantasy world.
