"The idea of a time-traveling warrior, who was once a dragon, courting a modern woman is steamy fun."

Romance Contemporary

After being kissed by a naked and furry pseudo-Neanderthal, Maddy has no intention of getting closer to the scorchingly disheveled William Killkenny. However, after being dared to do so by her recently married best friend, Eve Gregor, as well as constantly cornered by the patients at the home for the elderly where she is a nurse, Maddy can't help but give him a second (clothed) chance. Maddy's best friend likes William, her patients admire him for the respect he gives them and her warrior cousin understands him. Maddy is glad someone seems to understand what's going on: with extremely localized storms, vicious monster-wolves, dragon-sightings and reports of mermaids in the bay, a series of strange events keeps happening. What's odd is that all of these crazy things only started occurring after Eve's husband, Kenzie, arrived in the area. However, William's old-fashioned ideas about courting tend to distract Maddy from even the most unusual situations...until she realizes that William himself, a former dragon, is an unusual situation. The work is as funny and steamy as can be expected from Chapman; the idea of a time-traveling warrior who used to be a dragon "courting" a modern woman is well-executed!

SUMMARY

William Killkenny finally broke the curse place on him by a medieval witch by opening his heart in Moonlight Warrior. Now, the sexy, ninth-century Irish warrior finds himself facing a new challenge in the twenty-first century - wooing the beautiful, outspoken, and provocative Madeline Kimble. Maddy want nothing to do with the arrogant lout, but when William proves to be her knight in shining armor by helping with her rebellious teenage brother and nine-year-old daughter, Maddy has to reconsider. Something unsettles her, though, as William becomes involved in strange happenings in Midnight Bay. Can William prove he's not responsible and get Maddy to trust his love?
