About this ebook

Long ago, the Cult of Humanity sacrificed the Dragon Queen, crippling the breeding process. But now Carolyn hears the voice of that long dead queen telling her that she holds the key to breaking the spell that will free all the female dragons.

FBI dragon Reed's disdain for humans can't mask the magnetic attraction he has for Carolyn, but when she tells him she's going to shift into a dragon he thinks she's crazy. A female hasn't been hatched, or shape shifted, in over a thousand years.

He's proven wrong after Carolyn shifts and is named the new Queen on the block. A never-ending line of suitors forms, but she only wants Reed. Too bad he doesn't want in on the competition. But when the Cult kidnaps Carolyn to sacrifice her in an effort to make the curse against the female dragons permanent, Reed must face his fears—and feelings, racing to save the woman he realizes he can't live without.

Ratings and reviews

This fast paced and smooth flowing plot keeps readers on the edge of their seat with action, suspense, drama, humor and romance. The author makes it easy for readers to picture each scene as its happening with well written events and details that inspire vivid images and the well orchestrated action scenes are believable and exciting. The strong compelling characters are charismatic, easily related to and grab the reader’s attention from the very beginning. The attraction between Reed and Carolyn radiates heat from every page and the sex scenes are hot and steamy and the drama in their relationship ensures that the reader never gets bored. The tale inspires lots of smiles and chuckles with some very snarky dialogue, some sad moments, quite a bit of anger, and a lot of spine tingling delicious anticipation. The author has created a fantastic world of captivating characters where dragons are the norm and humans live along side them. There are lots of refreshingly different elements and some surprising twists that keep the readers on their toes and I really have to say that I love how Carolyn got revenge on her brother at the end.
