Dragon King (1001 Dark Nights)

by Donna Grant

This is going to be a short and sweet review - just like the story! I haven't read many Dragon based paranormal romances, but if this is what they are like then I am going to have to start digging in more! Grant does a great job making these mythical beasts seem real and approachable, while at the same time making them scary and intimidating.

Even though I am not a writer, I could almost instantly relate to Grace (minus the fear of storms, I LOVE them). She was quirky and independent, but trying to force things to happen when she should take a breath and RELAX. Enter Arian - while of course adding undue stress at the same time helps her to just let go and BE. I think we all could use a little bit of that in our lives.

Being a 1001 Dark nights novella, Dragon King has a fully fleshed out story in an existing world - the Dark Kings Series - but you don't need to be familiar with the series so far to dive right in. Of course we meet a few characters who I am sure we would know better had we read the series up until this point, but it certainly takes nothing away from the story. And you can believe that I will be playing catch up with this series with my next book budget!
