About this book
“Sexy and outrageous humor” heat up this fun fantasy from t he New York Times bestselling author of the Scarred Earth Saga (Romantic Times).
I know what they see when they look at me. The charming, soft-spoken dragoness bred from the most powerful of royal bloodlines. A disguise stronger than any battle shield that allows me to keep all suitors at tail’s length. A technique that’s worked until him. Until Ragnar the Cunning, handsome barbarian warlord and warrior mage from the desolate Northlands. Unlike those who’ve come before him, he does not simply submit to my astounding charm and devastating smile. Instead, he dismisses me as vapid, useless and, to my great annoyance, rather stupid!
Yet I’ll allow no male to dismiss me. Soon he’ll learn my worth, my many skills, and the strength of my will. For this one challenges me enough to make me want to ruthlessly taunt him, tease him and, finally, when the trap is set, bring him to his knees.

When I pick up a G.A. Aiken or Shelly Laurenston book, I know a few things about it even before I start to read. It'll make me laugh and it'll provide a decent story while doing so. If the book is under Laurenston's name, it'll be crass, bawdy fun...with some dismemberment tossed in for kicks. If it's Aiken, outlandish and hysterical familial one-upmanship that takes sibling rivalry and family squabbles to a whole other universe...with some dismemberment tossed in for kicks. There's a whole...

Did I mention that I loved this series? I love that each book doesn't just focus on those mentioned in previous books but they also keep telling the story of those we already met. Ragnar and Keita are wonderful characters and their story is unique but familiar as the others. We all know Keita as the sister that is a little loose with her sexual favors, to say the least but we find that she is so much more and her character is so much more complex. Ragnar wants to believe she is just so...

3.5-4 stars This was a pretty good story. I was a bit leery of both MCs but they seemed to work well together and it all worked out nicely in the end. Keita is a dragoness and the youngest daughter of the dragon Queen. Keita isn't a fighter like most of her siblings and gives everyone the idea that she's shallow, flighty and sleeps with tons of men. The image Keita portrays is mostly true but there is more depth to her that she doesn't allow others to see. Ragnar is a Lightning dragon from the...

This story, like the others before it, has all the ingredients that makes reading so enjoyable to me -- humor, non-stop action, fun character dialogue, lovable characters, unexpected plot twists, romance, good sex scenes, and writing that just flows. I do agree that it is a good idea to have read the previous books since there is a large cast of characters. Also, for those that are not familiar with this series, the language is explicit. The main romance leads in this story are Ragnar the...

She is Keita the Red Dragon of Despair and Death. Fire breather and daughter to Queen Rhionnon of the Southern Draqons. She is a free spirit, fiercely independent, more than just a little promiscuous and proud of it. A stunning beauty and to the world and even her family frivolous and not worthy of a second thought but she is more much much more. He is Lord Ragnor the Cunning. Leader of the Purple Lightening dragons of the Olgisson Horde. He is a handsome, no nonsense, adept warrior, mage and...
