Blurb:Major Elin Mara has one rule she’s always obeyed: No mixing business with pleasure. Although difficult at times, she has stood by it. Until now. Tasked with a new job that appears to be another attempt to drive her out of the military, her first order of business is to bring the tall, ripped stranger who claims to be able to breathe fire up to speed. Without breaking her own rule. Gulp.
Awakened from the long sleep into which he fled to escape his past, Kallore quickly finds that his “teacher” is more than just that. She’s the woman he’s been searching for. Suddenly his attempt to run away seems more like fate driving him into her deliciously curvy body. Now if only he can convince her that he’s not just another soldier, but something more.
The more time they spend together, the harder it becomes for Elin to resist the dragon’s temptation. He’s scorching hot and determined to say and do everything right to gain her trust. But the past can’t stay away, and when it rears its ugly head, they both lose sight of their true purpose. Can they focus on each other and the reason for Kallore’s awakening, or will they get caught up in ancient wrongs, blinded to the danger coming straight at them?
For a VERY limited time this includes the bonus novel Furnace as well!
I am such a sucker for shifter books! I’m straight up hypnotized by them and I don’t want to be! I don’t know why I love them so much, maybe its the fact that they mate for life. There is security in knowing its out of your control. Maybe its the alpha-types that draw me in, I do love me a great alpha. I don’t know what it is, all I know is I can’t seem to get in to anything else right now.
This one stood out in that Kallore, our resident dragon shifter, really tries to get to know his mate before trying to screw her. A lot of these alpha shifter books go quickly with the sexy times and I get super tired of it. This one had a great emotional draw as well. Kallore was considerate in that he didn’t want to scare her by demanding she get with him right away, instead actually learning about her culture and wooing her in her own way. It was really quite sweet and indicative of him as a mate.
And this book had a great sub-plot as well. It was involved and well thought out. I can’t stand when a shifter book just runs with the romance and ‘forgets’ the sub-plot till the end. This one was relevant throughout this book. I would read more from this author in this world for sure. Which is good since I can’t get enough of these books apparently. LOL
