Enjoyable and a fascinating take on dragons in 19th century
Englad -- hope there are more in the pipeline
For centuries theyβve lived in secret among northern
Englandβs green and misted hills. Creatures of
extraordinary beauty, power, and sensuality, they possess
the ability to shape-shift from human to dragon and back
again. Now their secretβand their survivalβis threatened by
a temptation that will break every boundary....
Dubbed the Smoke Thief, a daring jewel thief is confounding
the London police. His wealthy victims claim the master
burglar can walk through walls and vanish into thin air.
But Christoff, the charismatic Marquess of Langford, knows
the truth: the thief is no ordinary human but a βrunnerβ
whoβs fled Darkfrith without permission. As Alpha leader of
the draΒ΄kon, itβs Kitβs duty to capture the fugitive before
the secrets of the tribe are revealed to mortals. But not
even Kit suspects that the Smoke Thief could be a woman.
Clarissa Rue Hawthorne knew her dangerous exploits would
attract the attention of the draΒ΄kon. But she didnβt expect
Christoff himself to come to London, dangling the tribeβs
most valuable jewelβthe Langford Diamondβas bait. For as
long as she could remember, Rue had lived the life of a
halflingβhalf draΒ΄kon, half mortalβand an outcast in both
worlds. Sheβd always loved the handsome and willful Kit
from the only place it was safe: from afar. But now she was
no longer the shy, timid girl sheβd once been. She was the
first woman capable of making the Turn in four generations.
So why did she still feel the same dizzying sense of
vulnerability whenever he was near?
From the moment he saw her, Kit knew that the alluring and
powerful beauty was every bit his Alpha equal and destined
to be his bride. And by the harsh laws of the draΒ΄kon, Rue
knew that she was the property of the marquess. But they
will risk banishment and worse for a chance at something
greater. For now Rue is his
prisoner, the diamond has disappeared, and sheβs made the
kind of dangerous proposition a man like Kit cannot
resist....
In this bewitching novel, Shana AbΓ© transports us into a
world of exhilarating romance and magic.
