Pye dragon warrior Rafferty Powell issued a death challenge
to Magnus Montmorency. While staking out Magnus' house, he
spots a female breaking in. Rafferty is curious about why
a human would be breaking into an evil madman's house.
Investigative reporter, Melissa Smith is after Magnus for
the death of a friend. She intends to find proof of his
dirty dealings in the house. Melissa gets her proof and
more when she witnesses the unusual sight of real dragons
battling it out. She uses her camera to capture the
fight. Rafferty wounds Magnus but he manages to get away
and now he must find the reporter and get those photos
before they become public. Too late, Melissa has posted
them on her blog and now everyone knows there are dragons
among them. On top of the Pye exposure, Rafferty must
contend with his firestorm; something he has waited
centuries for. A Pye's firestorm means they must mate, but
Rafferty tries to resist the fire brewing between him and
Melissa. Then there is the darkfire that is affecting all
of the dragons and no one knows if the darkfire will change
things for good or evil. Melissa never imagined she would
be in the middle of a tempestuous relationship or that she
would have to make some personal choices she may not be
ready for. With all that's going on between them, their
shared common goal is to destroy Magnus no matter what.
DARKFIRE KISS drew me in from the very first page. The
premise makes for an interesting read and the sensual
intensity between the lead characters could very easily
singe the pages but too many characters made
reading DARKFIRE KISS a little confusing. I had to
backtrack a few times to see if I had missed something.
This book is part of a series and every person from
previous books makes a brief appearance for about half a
page each. It interfered with my enjoyment of this story.
Rafferty Powell has exchanged challenge coins with his arch-
nemesis Magnus Montmorency, and their next battle will be
their last. But Rafferty never expected to meet a woman
whose desire for Magnus’ downfall matches his own — and
whose presence sparks Rafferty’s long-awaited firestorm.
Since facing her own mortality, investigative reporter
Melissa Smith has resolved to live without fear. She’s
determined to make the seemingly untouchable Magnus pay for
his role in ending her friend’s life – no matter the price
to herself.
When her quest entwines with Rafferty’s, Melissa finds
herself risking more than she ever thought possible.
Because the heat between them unleashes the darkfire — an
awesome force of Pyr legend, one that won’t be sated until
everything they know has been tested and remade.
