Up until about eight months ago, witch Saba Watanabe was
enslaved by the exiled black dragon Malcolm. When his exile
ended, Malcolm returned to his home in Dragonspace and
lifted his thrall from Saba. Once free, though she had mixed
feelings about Malcolm leaving and missed him, Saba vowed to
never be under the control of a dragon again and learned a
spell to resist a dragon's mark. When she's attacked by a
white dragon on a train, thanks to her spell, she's able to
resist him marking her and summons Malcolm for help.
Malcolm's spent the last eight months trying to forget his
little witch. Once he went back to Dragonspace, she should
have just become a memory but he could never banish thoughts
of her completely. When she summons him to help her fight
off the white dragon, Malcolm finds he has another chance to
be with his witch. To stay close, he asks Saba if she'll
help him find the white dragon and the witch powerful enough
to let him into the human world. Before he can heat things
up between the two of them, Malcolm runs into another
problem. Someone or something is draining him of his
strength and he needs Saba's help, but will his ex-slave be
there for him?
Allyson James sweeps you into the fast paced world of
dragons and witches in THE BLACK DRAGON. Though it starts
off with what seems like a bit of Stockholm's syndrome for
Saba, you quickly realize she's a woman who can hold her
own, even with a dragon who once enslaved her. No matter how
much I wanted to dislike Malcolm for using Saba in Ms.
James' previous novel, DRAGON HEAT, there's just something
irresistible about Malcolm. You can't help but fall for him.
With its fast paced story and action packed chapters, THE
BLACK DRAGON is sure to become a fan favorite for paranormal
lovers. Dragon or no dragon, I know I'm enthralled with this
writer's books.
Saba has finally managed to put the black dragon Malcolm
out of her mind and out of her life. But an assault by an
evil white dragon in human form on a bay area train forces
her to use the magic Dragon's Tears Malcolm left behind to
call him for help. Malcolm is still as tall and darkly
sensual as ever, and Saba fears falling for him again. But
Malcolm has returned to the human world for Saba's help--
his considerable powers are being drained and he needs
Saba's special witch magic to save him.
