Dark Heat (Dark Kings, #0)

by Donna Grant

The Dark Kings are sworn to defend an ancient legacy of dragon magic. But their fiercest challenge lies in the modern world, where a woman's love conquers all. These are their stories.

Includes a bonus Dark Kings story: Passion's Claim!

Dark Heat gathers together these favorite stories of Donna Grant's Dark Kings.

Dark Craving

Fueled by ancient magic--and enflamed by human desire--the Dragon King known as Hal can transform himself at will into one of the legendary winged creatures he is sworn to protect. But one thing he can never do is fall in love...with a mortal woman.

Night's Awakening

The dark immortal warriors were never meant to experience human desire. But when Guy, a member of an ancient order of shape-shifting warriors, meets Elena--a mere mortal whose beauty and blind ambition shakes him to his core--all bets are off...

Dawn's Desire

For centuries, the Dragon Kings have hidden their shapeshifting powers from the world. But when a mortal enemy threatens to expose them, the warrior Banan must leave his secret lair in the Highlands to risk his life for the dragons within--and resist the temptations of human love.

Passion's Claim

Banan has been waiting for centuries for someone like Jane. Guy knew it was love at first sight with Elena. Can two Dragon Kings commit to two immortal women for eternity? Or does fate have something else in store?

[Cocktails and Books]

This is my first Donna Grant read and I am totally head over heels for the Dragon Kings! Not only are these Kings half-dragon/half-man, these delicious half-men are Scots! I was swooning every time one of the Dark Kings wielded that Scottish brogue and absolutely loved learning about these strong warriors and the females who’ve captured their hearts.

I enjoyed each story. The plot was entertaining and grabbed my full attention right from the start. When reading a novella, I’m always skeptical about the hero and heroine finding love together in such a short amount of time but I didn’t feel that way with these stories. The author did an excellent job of creating realistic love stories and I absolutely enjoyed them.

I invite everyone to read about these sexy Dragon Kings as they discover love while preparing for battle against an unknown enemy that threatens the peace the Dragon Kings have lived in for centuries.
