Abra has been chosen to save her people from a curse. Much as she hates leaving her orphaned younger siblings, Abra can’t deny she relishes the chance to put her warrior skills to the test. But there’s a catch. To destroy the evil Sorceress who cast the spell, she needs more than cold steel. She needs strong magic. To get it, she must seduce Bahkran, guardian of all magical power. In Abra’s view, men’s brain cells never stray far above their belts. Even the wickedly frustrating hero type who’s been taunting Abra in her dreams. But sacrificing her innocence is nothing compared to the barren fate that awaits her people if she fails. Bahkran hasn’t been tempted to break his vow of celibacy for centuries. But if Abra is brave enough to face the Sorceress, it’s worth the effort to emerge from her dreams for a few minutes of amusement. Their first coupling will be extraordinary. He has Seen it. But he cannot know that playing with this human female will be like stepping on a scorpion. Or that she’ll make him burn with the kind of passion that melts the heart of his dragon… Goodreads Review: "Even though it is not in my usual genre I really liked it. You will read about shapeshifters and evil sorceresses. Good battling evil and spells. It was a fun read." Janie
