The cousin of the High King, Lyndi Chandali has lived with
the constant threat of being pawned off as a political prize. A rare,
female-born dragon like Lyndi can’t truly mate—not in the way it counts. Which
is why she’s kept her distance from a certain sinfully delicious Beta. Instead,
she’s built a life for herself giving orphaned dragons in the Americas a home.
As Beta of his team of enforcers, Levi Rowtag is a fighter
first, last, and always. His job is to protect—his team, the shifters in his
territory, and the stubborn woman hell-bent on fighting with him at every turn.
He knows from the moment they first meet what she’ll never accept—they are
destined to be mated.
But with the kings at war, the enemy is now coming for
Lyndi. Worse, he’s coming for her orphans, too. He’ll have no choice but to
defy his king and go rogue if he has any hope of protecting them all…and
finally claiming his mate.

EXCERPT
Levi grunted as his dragon surged again. Still needing
distance, he stumbled inside the cavern he’d just drilled a hole into, seeking
calm in the cooler interior out of sight of the others.
After several minutes, he spotted the group through the
entrance, all shifted and now moving inside where he waited. The newcomer,
Drake, walked in front, blocking Levi’s view of the female causing him so much
trouble.
Then Drake, his face seeming to be formed in a permanent
scowl, red eyes glowing with flame, moved to the side, and Levi’s dick went as
hard as a steel broadsword as his gaze zeroed in on her.
Silky black hair, lithe body, and the face of an angel. Her
wide smile, highlighted by a deep dimple that gave her beauty an adorable edge,
hit him at the same time as her spring scent. Levi agreed with his dragon on
the spot.
Mine.
Lyndi turned her head away from Deep, who had escorted her
inside with her hand linked through his arm, and stilled at the sight of him.
No doubt his eyes were golden flames. The skin over his cheekbones tightened.
Hell, everything tightened. He opened his mouth to welcome her, but her smile
suddenly disappeared and she shot him a glare so full of spitting fury, he
stepped back.
“Just because I am female-born doesn’t mean you need to
treat me like a leper and fly away,” she snarled at him.
Levi froze, a riot of conflicting thoughts keeping him from
correcting her. He knew he’d just fucked up, and his dragon was riding him hard
to tell her she was wrong. That some misplaced sense of male dragon superiority
wasn’t why he’d run.
It was exactly the opposite, actually.
Lyndi walked away while he stood there, still stunned, and
he watched her go.
There was no easy answer here, and the lead weight in his
chest told him so. Given who she was related to and what she was, not to
mention her clear aversion to him already, he had no damn clue how fix any of
this, or if he should even try.
Official published review
Times are changing
What an absolutely fantastic story! I was so
worried that Lyndi would be left out in the cold when the dust settled, but the
author outdid herself with this tale of love and perseverance. I love how there
were so many pivotal changes for the Huracan dragons. Each one caused me to
hold my breath until the crisis was over while I anxiously continued reading to
see what the next turn of the page would bring. This book made me fall in love
with this group even more and I can’t wait to see what new dangerous and
exciting things the author brings their way next. They might have to hold a
continent together, but if they stay strong as a group I just know they will
all find the HEA that Levi and Lyndi have found. This book, and it’s wonderful
surprises, are a perfect example of why this author is one of my one-click
favorites, and I look forward to reading the next story she brings to life.
