This is what is on the cover:
Beautiful scholar Channon MacRea has spent years studying the legendary Dragon Tapestry, devoting days and nights to deciphering the impenetrable Old English symbolism. Then one evening the unnaturally handsome Sebastian appears. He claims to hold the key to solving the tapestry's mysteries. Bearing magnificently taut and tanned flesh marked by intriguing scars of battle, he also claims to be a dragon slayer trapped between two worlds. For Channon there's only one way to finally uncover the secrets of the intricate embroidery-by following the seductive stranger into a fantastic alternate world of magic, danger, and erotic adventure.

And this is the 96 pages in short:
For Sebastian the one night of passion turns bad as he finds Channon to be his true mate, and leaves him wit the dilemma of claming her or not, but either way putting her into deadly danger.

Book was good, had a lot of potential, which was not tapped into. It was VERY short.
