Kiss Of Fire A Dragonfire Novel by Deborah Cooke is book one in an exciting new paranormal series about a group of shape-shifting dragon warriors called the Pyr who consider themselves the guardians of the earth...

I'm going to come right out and admit it, one of the main reasons that I purchased this book was because of the cover. It's not very scientific reason, but in this case everything worked really well. The heroine Sara Keegan is a nice normal maybe even slightly boring young woman who inherits a new age bookstore when her aunt passes away. And that's when her nice boring world is turned upside down, first she's viciously attacked outside her store only to be saved by a fire-breathing dragon that turns into a hot and sexy man. The hero of the story Quinn Tyrrell is a very likable character, he's a protective alpha male who recognizes Sara as his chosen mate but at the same time his character is never over-bearing in the way that the alpha male character is sometimes portrayed...


If you enjoy stories about dragons, shifters, and hot alpha males then you're sure to love Kiss Of Fire...

For millennia, the shape-shifting dragon warriors known as the Pyr have commanded the four elements and guarded the earth's treasures. But now the final reckoning between the Pyr, who count humans among the earth's treasures, and the Slayers, who would eradicate both humans and the Pyr who protect them, is about to begin...

When Sara Keegan decides to settle down and run her quirky aunt's New Age bookstore, she's not looking for adventure. She doesn't believe in fate or the magic of the tarot-but when she's saved from a vicious attack by a man who has the ability to turn into a fire-breathing dragon, she questions whether she's losing her mind-or about to lose her heart...

Quinn Tyrrell has long been distrustful of his fellow Pyr and a self-reliant loner. So when he feels the firestorm that signals his destined mate, he's determined to protect and possess Sara, regardless of the cost to himself. Then Sara's true destiny is revealed-and Quinn realizes he must risk everything- even Sara's love-to fulfill their entwined fates...
