Book Blurb

Jason Foreman spent the last several months dancing around the strange relationship he has with Dragon warrior Kraigan Snow. First he can't stand Kraigan, his threats or attitude, but then Jason loves nothing better than to tease the man and stay close. After Kraigan saves Jason's life, he's started to look at Kraigan in a whole new light, and the way Kraigan kissed him isn't helping his growing fantasies.

Kraigan wasn't sure when it happened, this feeling he has for the annoying human that built into lust, but now he wants Jason, desperately. When Jason finally gives in, Kraigan's feelings, the ones he'd buried so deeply he'd forgotten they existed, grow so quickly that he pushes Jason away.

But it's too late. He loves Jason, that bratty human with the smart mouth, and he might be too late to confess it to the man after Jason is attacked by a radical who wants humans and dragons to stay separate forever.

 

Book Review

Jason and Kraigan’s story has been “brewing” for a while, so I was relieved to see them finally get their due and a volume dedicated to their somewhat tumultuous relationship. They have battled it out in theory so far, and in this book the “fight” for each other’s affection gets physical. It’s very, very hot, and only the beginning of a whole different set of woes.  But there is even more to the two of them being able to figure out what’s what – the radical dragons who are against humans intermingling with them have by no means given up.

Jason is Adam’s best friend, and has been accompanying him since book one. He has a harder time adapting to living with the dragons – without a warrior mate to look after him he has to work like all the other humans. He has no filter between his brain and his mouth, so he ends up in enough trouble for two men on a regular basis. It’s a good thing he is liked so well… at last by humans. But when his and Kraigan’s lives are threatened and they have to depend on each other yet again, the true nature of their relationship (or at least its potential) becomes quite clear. I loved watching Jason and Kraigan dealing with the fallout of their volatile tempers!

Kraigan starts out completely disliking humans (back in book one). Over time, however, he seems to soften somewhat, and even though he doesn’t admit it initially, he begins to fall for one of them in particular – not that he is ready to admit it. When he goes to Adam for advice on wooing humans I had to laugh, yet thought it was very cute of Kraigan to “expose” himself like that. Jason is a handful, though, so even though Kraigan begins to succeed, he shies away again - until events force him to confront his true feelings once and for all. And what a showdown that ends up being!

If you like stories about men who begin on opposite sides of a confrontation only to learn they have far more in common than they’d ever thought, if you believe a warrior dragon and a human brat can figure out how to live together, and if you believe that love is stronger than stubborn resistance to emotions, then you will probably like this novella.
