About this eBook

Can a sassy, fiery dragon and a smokin'-hot dragon slayer have a happily ever after?

★★★★★ "Laugh out loud funny, sexy, highly imaginative, and grippingly suspenseful!" ~Jeanne S (Five-star Amazon Review) 

Theresa Nichols is so over being stuck in dragon form. Two centuries of being trapped indoors because society can't handle a dragon is two centuries too many…especially when it means she's about to miss out on her one chance for love. Desperation sends Theresa to make a deal with her reluctant bestie's boss, who happens to be the leader of hell. Totally worth risking your eternal soul to get your life back, right?

Except once Theresa goes human, everything falls apart. 

The dangerous badboy she's kinda falling for turns out to be an ex-dragon slayer, her ex-lover from a couple centuries ago is stalking her, and there's a team of active dragon slayers hunting her down. 

When private detective and reformed dragon slayer Zeke Siccardi realizes that he's inadvertently set two sets of assassins on Theresa's tail, he's determined to make it right, no matter how badly she wants him out of her life. 

There's no chance for a dragon and a dragon slayer to make a relationship work, right? But when the stakes involve murder, eternal love, and the fate of dragons everywhere, Theresa and Zeke can't afford not to team up.

But will their deadly attraction destroy them before they can save Theresa's life and Zeke's soul? It might…but it's so hot between them that it might almost be worth it.

Ratings and reviews

Theresa Nichols was losing lots of weight and, for a dragon who eats often, that couldn’t be good. Theresa was an interim Guardian of the Goblet of Eternal Youth (aka Mona), who was currently an espresso machine. Because Theresa was not permitted to leave her post, her math-geek assistant Guardian, Quincy LaValle, was being paid to bring her food – but didn’t remember that. In desperation, she had only one other option for distraction, Zeke Siccardi, her online love interest. He was online, but as she suggested describing her new lingerie to him, he said he thought they should meet in person! She repeated that she was in isolation with a terrible contagious disease, but he felt she was avoiding him. They’d had this talk before, but something was different this time. Zeke was her one contact with the outside world. As lonely as she was, she couldn’t bear to lose him, but he couldn’t have what she was unable to give him! So when he again insisted they meet, that he couldn’t do this anymore, she said the doctors had arrived and she signed off quickly rather than reply. Upset at the way things were going, T made her decision. She had to have food and, since she couldn’t leave Mona alone, she would take her with her! But carrying an espresso machine under one’s arm is not comfortable. She asked Mona to change into something more portable. It took an offer to take her on a flying tour of NYC’s skyline for Mona to shape-shift into an ankle bracelet. It was nice to know someone else was desperate to get out of here too! She went to Vic’s Pretzels, her favorite, and blew smoke into the vent to drive away the three humans. Then she could grab a stack of pretzels and escape unnoticed. But the scent of pretzels overwhelmed her in her starving state, and she laid on the floor breathing it in – until the pretzel chef came back in and spotted her! Now she would have to kill him, but who make her pretzels? She trapped him but he started to shoot her with a gun! When she gathered her fire to kill him, nothing came out! Now she remembered a distant memory about protecting one’s neck from injury or the fire ability could be impaired. Just as she was about to kill him with her strength, Mona turned back into an espresso machine and thumped to the floor. She had to protect Mona – she would not fail as a Guardian – so she turned from the chef and flew away. Unfortunately, she wasn’t going to be able to fly the whole way home as she instead crashed through the window of Becca Gibbs' tenth floor apartment as she dodged her fireballs. Theresa gives “having a bad day” new meaning! Is she going to get back to Quincy’s house eventually? Can Becca help her out? And what is she going to do about Zeke’s demand to meet her? And we haven't even gotten to the deal with Satan yet! This story line never slows down and keeps the reader either chuckling softly or laughing out loud, probably on the floor! Your ribs will most likely hurt, not from the fall but from raucous laughter; but reading this book will be the best choice you make that day! The characters are amazing and you are sure to find many new friends among the pages of this book. Seriously, don’t miss this series!

She’s spent the last two centuries trapped indoors and Theresa Nichols is so over being stuck in dragon form, especially since she’s about to miss out on her one chance for love. So makes she a deal with Satan and she’s finally human, only everything starts to fall apart…the man she’s falling for is an ex-dragon slayer, her ex-lover from a couple centuries ago is stalking her and there’s a team of active dragon slayers hunting her down. Not only is there no chance for a dragon and a dragon slayer to make a relationship work but there’s no way she can protect the Goblet of Eternal Youth. The second book in the ‘Immortally Cursed’ series is as bright, funny and vividly passionate as the first but it also puts new meaning to the song “Crazy Thing Called Love!” It’s crazy, its zany, its super feisty and so energetic that keeps readers holding on the edge of their seat from beginning to end. The chemistry between Theresa and Zeke is electrical which keeps the pages singing with sparks and passion but this relationship is hits the rocks from the very first ‘in the flesh’ meeting and only gets more feisty and explosive from there. The plot is fast paced and full of non-stop action, excitement and laughs that keeps readers in stitches even while they bite their nails in suspense of just what will happen next. A whole host of wonderfully different, uniquely charming characters ensures that the readers can really get involved in the story and with stunning twists, fun and quirky elements, vivid imagery, this story is a diabolical delight.

I laughed so hard reading this book. With Theresa's quirky dragon persona and Zeke's more stoic approach this story was packed full of action and laughter. Theresa is doing her best as Mona's guardian, but circumstances have her making some decisions that get her mixed up in some craziness. In comes Zeke trying to find missing persons for his clients and the two are simply explosive together. The whole cast is great and the dialogue is so funny. Of course, there are some hot sexy times. The entire story was just so amazingly entertaining! Awesome series!
