Fire DragonLost in his solitary life, dragon warrior Liam Holden avoids the woman he craves until she's assigned as his exclusive battle partner... In his dragon form, Liam was incredible with black scales that also showed a glimmer of red iridescence, an indication he was a fire dragon. He had rows of spiked silver horns jutting down the length of his tail and forming a double row along the upper part of his neck and the top of his head. He roared into the heavens once more and released a spray of fire that spread out toward Blue Lake almost sixty feet into the air. Any boats on the water were well away from the landing area. The nearby attendants backed up a few more yards. "What a man," Jane cooed. "He is that." Emma wouldn't deny it. She just hated that she'd been a notch on his bedpost. She hated even more that her desire for Liam hadn't dimmed even the smallest, freaking jot.Liam Holden regrets his one-nighter with dragon-rider Emma Brier. He thought the experience would rid him of the cravings he felt for the fledgling warrior. Instead, the minute she walks into a room, he forces himself to walk out because he still wants the woman bad. But a relationship with Emma is the last thing he needs, not when the evil Magi dragons are turning up the heat and threatening to take over their world. Emma Brier fell hard for Liam the night they ended up together. The twelve long months in-between hasn't dimmed her desire for the extraordinary dragon-shifter either. But eighteen years prior, Commander Holden, a first-tier dragon and famous for his exploits as a warrior, lost his wife to a devastating birth. Since then he's been about as open to a relationship as a heat-loving dragon wanting to fly through hail. Not gonna happen. Still, her heart skips a beat every time the man enters a room. Worse, how will she ever get over him now that she'll be partnering with him in battle?FIRE DRAGON is the first book of a dragon warrior series set in the wind-besieged world of Dusane.
