If she believed in destiny, she would believe they were meant for each other.
But that fire was put out long ago. . .
Living among the Dragon Kings, Cain has spent lifetimes learning to distrust both mortals and Fae. He is a warrior born—and every instinct demands that he fight to keep his own kind safe. But when a fringe member of the Dark Fae contacts the Kings with an urgent warning, Cain is torn for the first time. How can he trust this beautiful creature when resisting his primal attraction to her is battle enough?
Noreen is horrified by what her kind and the malevolent Others are planning for the Dragon Kings. Dark Fae or not, there are lines she will not cross—even if it means risking her life. But she never imagined that she would risk her heart until she meets Cain. She wants him with a soul-deep desire that frightens her…and endangers them both. Is saying goodbye to everything Noreen has ever known worth a love that will span time and realms?
What I thought about Flame
I'm a late-comer to this series, but I do love these Dark King stories. I can't say that I've read all the books in this series, but from a paranormal romance perspective, I find that I just love the Dark Kings and what they stand for and the women that find them irresistable. I was intrigued by Constantine many books ago. Each book does bring us closer to the showdown between the Fae and the Dragon Kings.
Noreen warns the Dragon Kings that something bad is coming their way and Cain is sent to investigate. He is at first skeptical that Noreen is going against her clan, but eventually comes to believe her and understand just what she is risking by warning the Dragon Kings.
There is some insta-love going on here, which is part of the charm of this paranormal series, even though Noreen and Cain start out on opposite sides. I really like these books more for the romantic aspects but I've found the external conflicts between the Dragon Kings and The Others intriguing and I've gotten more interested in that part of the story as this series is in its last few books and that part of the story comes to a conclusion.
Overall, another good read in this paranormal series. There's a good buildup to the conclusion happening in this story along with the romance between Noreen and Cain.
