FLIGHT FROM MAYHAM BY YASMINE GALENORN

flight from mayhem cover
New York Times bestselling author Yasmine Galenorn presents the second Fly by Night novel, set in the realm of the Otherworld.

I’m Shimmer, a blue dragon shifter. Thanks to a mistake, I was exiled from the Dragon Reaches and sentenced to work for gorgeous, exasperating Alex Radcliffe, a vampire who owns the Fly by Night Magical Investigations Agency. Every time I turn around, somebody’s trying to kill us. But you know what they say: All’s fair in love and bounty hunting…

A serial killer is stalking the elderly Fae of Seattle, draining their bank accounts before brutally murdering them. When Chase Johnson asks for our help, Alex and I discover that the sociopath is also a shifter—able to change shape to match his victim’s deepest desires. Our friend and colleague Bette volunteers to act as bait, but the plan goes dangerously awry. Now, unless we find her first, she’s about to face her worst nightmare.

From the Paperback edition.

Flight from Mayhem (Fly by Night) is an awesome book! The characters and story line is very well-developed. When Shimmer and the others delve into a case where someone is killing older Fae and stealing their money. One of their own is put into danger. They will face something they have never seen before. They cannot believe everything they see, for the shifter can take on the life of anyone. Also, the house across the street has a mystery that they have to solve to help the ghost stuck there. I loved this book and series, and recommend it to everyone. I give FLIGHT FROM MAYHEM 5/5 STARS.

REVIEW- DRAGON SOUL BY KATIE MacALISTER

dragon soul- cover
NOTHING BURNS HOTTER . . .

Sophea Long knows that escorting her octogenarian client to Europe will be an adventure. Mrs. P has a habit of stealing anything shiny, and the former “hoochikoo dancer” is a lot faster than she looks. But Sophea hadn’t counted on Mrs. P leading her right into the arms of a smoldering, dark-haired stranger who kisses like a dream. If only he’d give up all this nonsense about Sophea being some kind of dragon…

THAN THE FIRE INSIDE

There’s a reason Rowan Dakar is known as the Dragon Breaker. The last thing he needs is to fall for a woman who literally sets him aflame every time they kiss. After all, he has a mission-one that will finally free him of dragonkin for good. He can’t afford to be distracted by the funniest, most desirable woman he’s ever set eyes on. But no prophecy in the world can ever stop true love . . .

Dragon Soul is filled with a lot of laughs that will have you rolling on the floor. The characters and story line are well-developed. When Rowan kills some Dragons by accident, The First Dragon punishes Rowan by enforcing the danegeld. He took four dragon lives, so he must replace those lives by a specific timeline. Which that time is fast approaching. He was sent to retrieve a ring from Mrs. P who stole it, and return it to its rightful owner. They must keep the ring out of Bael’s hands at all cost. Sophea is to get Mrs. P to the boat and then her job is through, at least that was what she thought. Now, she must accompany her on the boat, and apparently perform a series of trials to get to the underworld to help Mrs. P. The humor, and antics of Mrs. P will have you laughing. The chemistry between Rowan and Sophea is hot. I really like the writing of Katie MacAlister.  She is always a go to read for me. I loved this book and series, and I urge you to read it.  I give DRAGON SOUL 5/5 stars.

REVIEW – FEEL THE BURN BY G.A. AIKEN

feel the burn
I, Gaius Domitus, one-eyed rebel dragon king of the Provinces, know that better than most, since I have to fight off half my ungrateful family on a regular basis to keep law and order here in my lands. But I never expected to have to consort with a barbarian human woman.

Kachka is beautiful, if you like them fierce—and of course I do. But she keeps complaining about how spoiled and decadent I am, and how a feared Daughter of the Steppes has no time for foolish dragons. I think she likes my eye patch, though. It is quite dashing. With death always at our tails, we take our passion like we take our allies. As they say, love the barbarian you’re with…

FEEL THE BURN  is another laugh fest. I don’t know how she can keep the laughs coming in every book, but she does.  Kachka is the sister of Elina Shestakova. Kachka is bored, and when she has a chance to go after the Chramnesind Cult she takes it. She goes o her kin to recruit a few of her sisters to help her crush this Cult and rid them from the land. She ends up saving Gaius Domitus, The Iron Dragon. Her sisters are almost as bad as the Cadwaldr dragons. There is one of Kacka’s sisters that is always happy-go-lucky, and is always finding husbands for her daughters. It is really funny to see Kachka try to not kill Zoya because she is so happy. This book will have you laughing out loud. I recommend this book and series to everyone. I give FEEL THE BURN 5/5 STARS.

BOOK REVIEW – DRAGON ON TOP BY G.A. AIKEN

dragon on top
I am Glheanna the Decimator. I am a warrior. A soldier. I know no fear. No pain. No mercy. I do, however, know acute embarrassment! How could I not after getting dumped by a bastard dragon in front of my own troops? So I tuck tail and return to my cave, drowning my sorrows in ale—as is my family’s way. But instead of leaving me to my misery, I’ve been summoned to the Dragon Queen’s court.

As if my life wasn’t pathetic enough, Her Majesty now has me escorting the highborn Bram the Merciful through dangerous territories—not exactly the best use of my military training. And just so he can negotiate with enemy dragons instead of battling them? Honestly, what has my world come to? Then again…Bram is quite easy on the eyes. And the perfect distraction for what ails me. Perhaps I’m looking at all this the wrong way. Maybe there is a place for a little “mercy” in my life…

Previously published in Supernatural.

DRAGON ON TOP is a laugh-out-loud, great read. Bram is the quiet scholarly type in a family of boisterous dragons. He has loved Glheanna for a long time, but he didn’t think she would go for a dragon like him. Now the Queen has assigned Glhenna to go with Bram to negotiate a contract between the Lightning dragons. They are ambushed by a group that does not want this meeting to take place. Glhenna is mortally wounded and he has to get her help, and the only one he can think of is the Sea dragons. Now they are trapped in the sea,  while Glhenna heals and they get very close. They find out that they are meant to be together  and nothing will get in the way. This book will have you laughing like all the other books by G.A. Aiken. She always delivers a great read. I want to be part of the Cadwaladr clan, they are a lot like my family. I love my family, and I love this family. They always bring a smile to my face. DRAGON ON TOP is a great book and I recommend this book and series to everyone and I give it 5/5 stars.

REVIEW- DRAGON FALL BY KATIE MacALISTER

DRAGON FALLAVAILABLE- JULY 28, 2015


YOU FLIRT WITH FIRE…

For Aoife Dakar, seeing is believing-and she’s seen some extraordinary things. It’s too bad no one else believes that she witnessed a supernatural murder at an outdoor fair. Returning to the scene for proof, Aoife encounters a wise-cracking demon dog-and a gloriously naked man who can shift into a dragon and kiss like a god. Now thrust into a fantastical world that’s both exhilarating and terrifying, Aoife is about to learn just how hot a dragon’s fire burns.

WHEN YOU DATE A DRAGON

Kostya has no time for a human woman with endless questions, no matter how gorgeous or tempting she is. He must break the curse that has splintered the dragon clans before more of his kind die. But his powerful attraction to Aoife runs much deeper than the physical-and there may be more to her than even his sharp dragon eyes can see. To survive the coming battle for the fate of his race, he needs a mate of true heart and soul . . .

DRAGON FALL is a superb masterpiece! I love me some Katie MacAlister! I first started reading this series and the books that have branched off of it with the Aisling Grey novels. These dragons in this book and others are just yummy. Alpha male at their best. The story line and characters are well crafted. We first meet Aoife on a date at a goth fair. Her date gives her a ring and tells her that there are dragons out there and points a few out. Later he is killed and she ends up telling the authorities everything that her date told her about the dragons and that a man killed her date and the man just POOF disappeared. Now they think she is crazy and is sent to an Asylum for two years. Now she is back home and facing everything that happened two years ago. She goes back to the fair where it all started and nothing happens. On her way home she ends up hitting a dog and then taking him to the Vet to make sure he is alright. Now she is responsible for a dog. When she gets home the dog runs down to the beach where she finds a man has washed up on shore. He is one of the men that was pointed out to her two years ago as a dragon. Then the dog talks and she thinks that she has lost her mind again.  This book had me laughing so much. I recommend it for everyone and I give DRAGON FALL 5/5 STARS.
