About DRAGON BURN:

In this scorching Dark Kings novella, New York Times bestselling author Donna Grant brings together a determined Dragon King used to getting what he wants and an Ice Queen who thaws for no one.

Marked by passion.

A promise made eons ago sends Sebastian to Italy on the hunt to find an enemy. His quarry proves difficult to locate, but there is someone who can point him in the right direction – a woman as frigid as the north. Using every seductive skill he’s acquired over his immortal life, his seduction begins. Until he discovers that the passion he stirs within her makes him burn for more…

Gianna Santini has one love in her life – work. A disastrous failed marriage was evidence enough to realize she was better off on her own. That is until a handsome Scot strolled into her life and literally swept her off her feet. She is unprepared for the blazing passion between them or the truth he exposes. But as her world begins to unravel, she realizes the only one she can depend on is the very one destroying everything – a Dragon King.

Stephanie’s 3 Star Review:

I received a copy of this book from the publisher for an honest review.

I’ve not read any book in this series before now.  I will tell you it’s probably a must to have done so though you can pretty much pick up on what’s happened in this novella and where it’s going from here.  Sebastian is a Dragon King sent to seduce Gianna for information about her boss.  She’s known in the community as the Ice Queen.  She rebukes any man’s invitation to get close or even just casual hello.

Sebastian is looking for key information that will help him help a couple of his friends and fellow Dragon Kings.  The weight of the responsibility falls on his shoulders from a promise previously made and he’s determined to see it through.  He just wasn’t counting on what Gianna would bring into his life, and what she would mean to him.

He knows her as the Ice Queen but she seems to thaw pretty easily when she’s around Sebastian.  They have easy conversation and the information he’s searching for he doesn’t think she can easily obtain it for him.  Which makes him feel much better about his attraction to Gianna.

So as I’m relaying all of this to you – I’m trying to avoid key points about this story.  Because they’re spoilers.  There’s a bit of action.  Some suspicion, and some treason – depending on how you look at it.  This was an interesting story to read.  I will want to learn more about these dragon’s and their world from reading this novella.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Excerpt:

“You’re really going through with it? With a mortal?” Sebastian asked in dismay.

Ulrik smiled and raised a mug of wine in salute. “Who am I to question love?”

Sebastian looked out over the vast rugged glen and the loch below from their perch atop a mountain on Dreagan. “What of children? None of the other humans have carried a bairn to term? Your line could die out.”

“Only the cosmos knows if I’ll be a father.” Ulrik shrugged and took a long drink. “I’m happy. That’s all I care about.”

Sebastian didn’t have the heart to mention that years from now, his friend might feel differently. He didn’t understand why Ulrik wasn’t considering every possibility, because once he was mated, that was it. He would be bound for eternity. Though, to be fair, a King didn’t go through with a ceremony if there were doubts, and it was obvious Ulrik wanted the human for his mate.

Ulrik released a sigh, his gold eyes bright. “One day you’ll find love, Bast. I hope I’m there to see it.”

“Finding love is the least of my worries.”

“Ah, that’s right.” Ulrik nodded, a frown forming. “So your brother is intent on marrying that young dragon?”

Sebastian drained his wine. “Aye, and that’s a sore subject. Let us move to happier things. Like your mating ceremony. I hear the feast is going to be one spoken about for ages.”

“It’ll be the first time so many mortals, Dragon Kings, and dragons will be in one place.”

“Are you worried at all?”

Ulrik laughed and placed his hand behind him, leaning back. “Why would I be? You sound like Con, always fretting about something or other. We’ve lived in peace for over two centuries now. My mating will be the first of many such alliances. Just wait and see.”

Their peace wasn’t exactly stable, but with Ulrik’s euphoric state of mind he likely wouldn’t recall the growing unrest of the humans or the continued displeasure of the dragons. It was something the Kings spoke about often. Only a few hours earlier Con had met with some mortals to ensure the peace continued.

As usual, Ulrik saw only the good in everything. No matter the trouble or difficulty, to Ulrik there was always a silver lining. It was one of the things Sebastian admired about his friend. And it was why Ulrik was so popular with dragons, Kings, and mortals alike.
