Karl's pilgrimage as an initiate for the Mattaen monks is
quickly coming to an end. On his 30th birthday, he will
gain access to the tombs that promise the extreme knowledge
that becoming a true monk offers. Karl's training over the
past decade, along with his roaming of the barren land, has
brought him to a village near the temple where he will take
his vows. The township is taking a young woman to an altar;
the rumor is she's chosen to become the virginal sacrifice
to the dragon. Karl feels the dragon legend is suspect,
until he offers himself as the sacrifice, and the shadow of
a dragon enters into his vision.
Elera, the daughter of Shane, is responding to a summons
from the people to slay the dragon before it takes the life
of one of the village virgins. Her skill as a warrior and
dragon slayer comes out tenfold as she works to save the
man fighting for his life with the dragon. Elera is
pleasantly surprised that the virgin is a male because it
will make her request for payment for assisting the removal
of the dragon much easier. She rarely shows herself to the
common citizens of the land below, but she is desperate to
save her own kind. Her ulterior motive consists of giving
the Breath of Fire to her chosen one.
BREATH OF FIRE is an exciting new tale of a world where
dragons are real and powerful, just like those who command
them. If you're looking for a great story with a unique
twist on fantasy, this is definitely a must-read.
When the dragon came to claim him, Karl knew his great
plan had gone horribly wrong. If he had known the creature
was real, he wouldn’t have scoffed at the villagers…and he
certainly wouldn’t have been so quick to let them chain
him to a rock. Mattaen Initiates trained as warriors, but
no man could defeat a dragon.
She had vanquished the beast and named her price: one
night with the virgin sacrifice she’d saved. He’d taken a
vow of chastity, but Karl still had a man’s needs—and
Elera’s sultry curves made him ache to taste his first
woman. With a scorching kiss she shattered his defenses…
and led him into a world of deception and seduction, where
he’d be forced to choose between the brotherhood that had
raised him and the woman whose courage set his heart on
fire.
