Stonefire Dragon - La série

In exchange for a vial of dragon’s blood to save her brother’s life, Melanie Hall offers herself up as a sacrifice to one of the British dragon-shifter clans. Being a sacrifice means signing a contract to live with the dragon-shifters for six months to try to conceive a child. Her assigned dragonman, however, is anything but easy. He’s tall, broody, and alpha to the core. There’s only one problem—he hates humans. Due to human dragon hunters killing his mother, Tristan MacLeod despises humans. Unfortunately, his clan is in desperate need of offspring to repopulate their numbers and it’s his turn to service a human female. Despite his plans to have sex with her and walk away, his inner dragon has other ideas. The curvy human female tempts his inner beast like no other.

Abandoned and humiliated, Melanie tries her best to maintain her composure as Bram explains the reason for Tristan leaving–something called a “mate claim frenzy”. In other words, the next time Tristan comes face to face with her, his inner dragon will take control and claim her for his own. Both Bram and Samira try to convince her to accept his attentions earlier than her contract specifies or risk putting not only herself, but also the members of their clan in danger. Tristan stays away from Melanie as long as possible, but to prevent his dragon from completely taking over, he returns to Stonefire’s lands the afternoon after the First Kiss ceremony. When he shows up naked on Melanie’s doorstep, his human-half maintains control long enough to garner her consent. Now it’s only a matter of time before Melanie conceives and fulfills her contract. But once she does, will Tristan overcome his hatred of humans and stay with her, or will he push her away?

Melanie’s future hinges on her meeting with Tristan’s sister, Arabella. The dragonwoman suffered at the hands of a group of dragon hunters a decade ago, and she hate humans even more than Tristan. Can Melanie find a way to break through the female dragon-shifter’s barriers? And even if she does, will it be enough to convince Tristan to give her a chance?

Melanie and Tristan look like they just might have a chance at a future together until Tristan receives a call about a run in with a group of dragon hunters. Will the hunters put distance back between them? Or, will Tristan finally get over his hatred and cherish the human sacrifice who has started to capture his heart? And, most importantly, will Melanie survive the birth of her half-dragon-shifter baby? This final installment answers all of those questions, and so much more…read to find out what happens!

On her first visit to Clan Stonefire, Department of Dragon Affairs inspector Evie Marshall has an ulterior motive—she needs to seduce its clan leader. If she can’t seduce him and become his mate, the dragon hunters will kill her. Of course, Evie doesn’t know the first thing about seducing a man, let alone a dragon-shifter, but with her life on the line, she’s going to have to become a fast learner or die trying. Bram Moore-Llewellyn has a track record of scaring off DDA inspectors, but when the latest inspector shows up wearing tight clothes and a sexy smile, his inner dragon takes notice. While battling his attraction to the human, he soon finds himself with an impossible choice: he can either break the law to mate the female and risk a backlash from both the dragon hunters and the British government, or he can turn her away and let her die at the hands of the hunters.

Evie Marshall discovers she has three days to convince Bram to trust her or he won’t take her as his mate. Unable to forget their steamy kiss, she’s determined to prove her usefulness not only for her safety, but also for another chance to kiss the sexy dragonman and become part of his clan. Bram’s dragon wants Evie, but refuses to say why. As Bram struggles with his inner beast, Evie reveals something about Caitriona Belmont’s death that puts him on alert. The threat to his clan is more than just the dragon hunters; there is a danger from within.

While Evie attempts to behave in the manner of a clan leader's mate during the special dinner in Finn's honor, news of another attack ruins the evening. Now Bram and Evie must work together to not only stop the dragon hunters from hurting anyone else, but to also control Bram's dragon. Without his leadership, the clan will be doomed. 18,600 words
