For millennia, the shape-shifting dragon warriors known as
the Pyr have lived peacefully as guardians of the
earth's treasures. But now the final reckoning between the
Pyr, who count humans among those treasures, and the
dreaded Slayers, who are determined to eradicate
both the humans and the Pyr, is set to start.
Magnus, the malevolent leader of the nasty Slayers,
is manipulating Delaney to help him defeat the Pyr.
Delaney was a Pyr until he was killed in battle.
Magnus took Delaney's body and forced him to drink the vile
Dragon's Blood Elixir, an awful concoction that raises the
dead and turns them into shadow dragons. However, Delaney
was not dead long enough for his soul to abandon his body,
and he didn't willingly drink of the Elixir, so he's not
totally corrupted. There's still enough good in Delaney
that he's fighting back. Hell-bent on destroying the main
source of the Elixir, as well as Magnus, Delaney finally
locates the Elixir's sanctuary in an underground area in
the Ohio countryside. Of course, Delaney expects to die
during his mission. What he doesn't expect is that he will
experience his "firestorm" before he reaches his final
destination.
Craving the company of humans one last time, Delaney stops
at a nearby roadhouse. The noisy bar with its music and
laughter eases his soul. Then wildfire courses through his
body and sparks fly when Ginger Sinclair taps him on the
shoulder. It seems apropos that he's being granted
his firestorm just when he's ready to end his life.
Ginger feels the heat between them and is more sexually
attracted to this man than anyone she's ever met. Inviting
Delaney back to her farm house for the night, the
inevitable occurs. However, their lovemaking does not
satisfy the firestorm, as it's supposed to -- the sparks
are still flying between them. Of course, the other
Pyr are alerted to the firestorm and descend on the
vicinity. They also know what Delaney has planned with the
Elixir and they want to be involved. They want to support
his endeavor, protect his mate -- and keep him alive, if at
all possible. Let the battle begin!
All the Pyr and their mates from the previous three
books in this exciting series are included in this final
confrontation with Magnus and his evil Dragon's Blood
Elixir. It's another stellar addition to this dynamic
paranormal saga with the promise of more to come when
Niall's story is released in August 2010.
The mysterious Dragon’s Blood Elixir gives immortality to
Magnus, the Pyr’s greatest enemy, and his minions.
The Pyr must destroy this source of power, and
outcast Delaney vows to complete the quest himself. Delaney
was exiled because of his dangerous impulses, and success
in eliminating the Elixir will either redeem him or end his
suffering.
But his plans don’t take into account his sudden firestorm —
or fiery Ginger Sinclair. The firestorm revitalizes
Delaney, restoring him to his old self. And when Ginger
learns about Delaney’s mission, she realizes she cannot
resist a strong man with a noble agenda.
