BORDER LAIR is the second in the vivid Dragon Knights
series, a different take
on dragonriders which resembles Anne McCaffrey's Pern books
but is definitely for adult readers. The story starts with
Lord Darian of Skithdron bedding a woman in a palace in
order to gain access to secrets. He decides that Lord
Venerai and his ruler King Lucan are both deranged and
evil.
Two kingdoms, Draconia and Skithdron, are at odds and while
the former boasts dragons as native beings, the latter has
venomous serpentine beasts called skiths. These usually
solitary creatures are being harnessed for use in warfare
by King Lucan. Adora, a healer woman, has just been
seriously wounded by skiths and saved by a dragon, and now
she is resting in the BORDER LAIR, or dragon home, while
her injuries heal. An older dragon knight called Jared,
bonded to a female dragon called Kelzy, is caring for her
and gradually falling for the brave woman. Prince Nico of
Draconia arrives and discerns that Adora is likely to be of
lost royal blood. She can 'hear' dragon speech and
magically heal others.
Belora, daughter of Adora, is also working as a healer, and
mated to two dragon knights - women being scarce, the men
have to share a partner. Warfare is now waged openly
between the kingdoms, the dragons flaming the skiths, which
spit back venom, while diamond-tipped crossbow bolts are
suddenly brought into use by the Skithdrons. Darius,
fearing that the evil magic he has witnessed is taking over
King Lucan, decides to defect in order to warn Draconia,
putting himself into grave peril. Meanwhile Adora is the
subject of a pleasant conspiracy by the dragon Kelzy, who
decides that the woman requires two dragon knight mates.
BORDER LAIR is part of a complex series but can be read as a
standalone, with sympathetic characters and well-imagined
warfare. It features threesomes in a loving relationship
between three life partners. Bianca D'Arc has written
several books in this and other fantasy series. I enjoyed
this exciting tale and will be looking out for more of her
work.
War has come to the Border Lair, but as enemies become
allies--and lovers, hope springs anew for the dragons and
their knights.
Second book in the Dragon Knights series.
A young widow, Adora raised her daughter by herself, but
her girl is married now. Can Adora find a love of her own
in the crowded Border Lair? Dare she even try?
Lord Darian Vordekrais is about to turn traitor, giving up
his title, his lands, and his home in order to warn the
dragons and knights of his treacherous king’s evil plan.
Will his life be forfeit or is there some way he can make
a new life in a foreign land?
Sir Jared lost his wife and child to treachery, but he
knows Lord Darian and trusts him. Both men admire the
lovely Adora, but Jared’s broken heart is frozen in solid
ice. Or is it?
As war comes to the border, the knights and dragons of the
Border Lair rise to the occasion. New allies rally to
their side. Love blossoms and grows even as evil invades
the land. The knights and dragons must stand fast against
the onslaught, the beautiful woman of royal blood bringing
them hope, healing and love.
Warning, this title contains the following: explicit sex,
ménage a trois.
