DRAGON FEVER Trailer:  


Dragon Fever - cover

A yearning that won’t be denied

Rachel Marek is a journalist with a plan. She intends to expose the truth about dragons to the world – and her target is within sight. Nothing matters but getting the truth, especially not the ruggedly handsome, roguishly thrilling Highlander who oozes danger and charm. And when she finds the truth that shatters her faith, she’ll have to trust her heart to the very man who can crush it…
A legend in the flesh
Suave, dashing Asher is more than just a man. He’s a Dragon King – a being who has roamed this planet since the beginning of time. With everything on the line, Asher must choose to trust an enemy in the form of an all too alluring woman whose tenacity and passion captivate him. Together, Asher and Rachel must fight for their lives – and their love – before an old enemy destroys them both…

Excerpt 



When his mouth claimed hers, his tongue slid along the seam of her lips. They parted for him, on their own accord, granting him access to do as he wished. His arms wrapped around her, holding her securely. With a sigh, she melted against him.

She tasted the whisky on his tongue. The exotic taste mixed with his kiss caused her blood to heat. Her hands splayed on his chest before moving upward to lock around his neck. With a groan that rumbled his chest, he deepened the kiss.

Then something strange happened. Warmth spread through her, settling low in her belly. At first she thought she was going to be sick, but the more he kissed her, the more the warmth grew––until it was a fire.

And did it rage.

It burned brightly, scalding her with its intensity. She couldn’t breathe, couldn’t think. And she didn’t care. All that mattered was that he continue kissing her, taking her further along this incredible journey.

Then that wasn’t enough. She wanted…no, she needed more. As if sensing her thoughts, he turned her so that her back was to the railing. His heat surrounded her. Every breath she drew into her lungs was filled with his scent of dark amber and mahogany. The longer they kissed, the more fiery and out of control their kisses became.

It was Asher who gradually pulled away. She struggled to find words, to tell him she didn’t want it to end. Her lids slid closed when his thumb ran over her bottom lip and he groaned.

She leaned into him, hoping he would kiss her again. This feeling…this sensation…was awful and amazing. She didn’t know whether to fight it or give in, but her body didn’t give her a choice.

Asher didn’t say a word as he laced his fingers with hers and turned toward the hotel. They walked in silence once more, becoming more in tune to him with every step she took. She could literally feel their souls intertwining and melding.

She should be scared, and she was. But she was also excited and aroused to the point that she wanted to crawl out of her skin. He’d done that to her. When no other had caused even a hint of desire, he had brought an inferno.


What I thought about Dragon Fever

I thought I'd start this review by saying dragons are "in" right now, but truthfully, when have they ever gone out of style?  There's a mystery about dragons that just can't be matched, so when this title was offered for review, I jumped on it.  I also like to try new authors with a novella before taking on a full length novel, and Donna Grant is a new author for me.

Rachel Marek is a reporter looking for more of a story after her informant gives her some details about where she might find the elusive dragon shifters.  She wants to expose them to the world and she has a plan to do it.  Turns out that when in human form, the dragon community happens to distill whiskey and there' a whisky convention happening in Paris.  

At the convention she tracks down the man she's been told is a dragon, and the big problem is that she's attracted to him in a way she hasn't felt before...and Asher is attracted to her in return.  Looks like there some dragon mating about to happen!

I really liked this story. It had romance, it had action and it had big scary fire breathing dragons. Oh, and a happy ending.  I liked this enough to try other titles in Donna Grant's dragon shifter series, so there you go!
