The Wyswoman from the West (The Prophesied Sorcerer Series) by T.M. Caruana

Blood Moon, black dragon and the hunt for energy that charges the magical core. Will Libi collect enough to break the sorcerer’s curse? In the forest, a young woman hunts for the rarest lizards known to the magic community. She must find one that is worth plenty of silver so she can feed both her Master and herself for over a week. Under the light of a blood moon she spots a black lizard, alike nothing she has ever seen before. Spending all night setting traps she finally catches it. Upon closer inspection she realises it isn’t a lizard at all, it has wings, claws and breathes out small puffs of fire. It’s a black dragon. On touching him, an instant connection runs through her, empowering every bit of her magical core. Fully charged, her Master recognises that the prophecy has begun. A prophecy he has long hoped was dead. He fears he has much to tell her and much to teach her as evil will come to haunt her. But the prophecy also tells of an irresistible love, which would be the only one able to bind the evil sorcerer’s powers by a kiss of deceit. “I know my purpose in life is to kill the sorcerer.”
