FIRE RISING
Donna Grant

Reviewed by Annetta Sweetko
Posted May 31, 2014

Fantasy

The Dragon Kings have battled for centuries to protect their dragon magic and keep the truth hidden from humans. When lovely Sammi Miller runs straight to them for protection, another dragon will succumb to the FIRE RISING to have that human as their own.

Pub owner and half sister to a Dragon's mate Jane, Sammi lives a simple life until her ex-lover brings the mob down on her world. With a bullet in her shoulder, and her pub destroyed she runs to the only family she has left.

In the mountain fortress of Dreagan Industries Sammi finds safety for awhile and something she never dreamed of. Since losing her mother she has closed off even the thoughts of love and ever after until she sees Tristan.

Tristan, the newest dragon, dropped from the sky in a snowstorm naked, holding a sword and with no memory of how he got there or why. The former warrior didn't even know he has a twin brother until recently. Adding Sammi to the confusion that is his life seems so wrong. Until the danger she is in becomes even more then her troubles become his as he takes sides and is determined to protect the woman who has stolen his heart.

FIRE RISING is a spell binding, intense book that will have you glued to your seat. Author Donna Grant takes us back to her Dragon Kings and shakes things up even more. Both Sammi and Tristan and scarred and scared which makes them the perfect couple ... if they can stop trying to hide what they feel long enough to express it. The enemies are getting more determined to destroy the Kings. I hope the next book comes out soon in this series because Ms. Grant left a number of things in the air ... you will have to read this one to know what I mean ... but suffice it to say the war with the Dark has finally begun in earnest and the one seeking revenge is about to cause hell to break loose. I cannot wait for the next edition of Ms. Grant's Dragon series.
