ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date April 9, 2024
She captured his dragonās attention and stole his fire.
With her final exams behind her, Ella Kincaid has one weekend to live carefree before entering the grueling world of corporate America to start her dream job. She never expected her one-night stand with Gideon to put her in an ethical dilemma on day one.
As a dragon shifter, all Gideon Hayes wants is his fire and to make jewelry. One incredibly stupid mistake cost him his flame. Whatās he supposed to do with a human mate, anyway?
Theyāre mates who shouldnāt be. If Ella canāt get Gideon out of her head, sheāll lose her career. Heāll be damned if a human negates his fire.
Can they deny what destiny has in store for them? Challenging fate may have worse consequences than they ever imagined.

REVIEW:Another new author for me š and a shifter book (one of my favourite reads) so Iām well happy š
Ella, has a strong personality who takes no messing from anyone. She values her work and has worked hard to get where she is now. It might be a family owned business, but didnāt do her any favours. She loves her job (the one thing that puzzled me thoughā¦ itās family run, but hardly any of her family wander through or are mentioned!)
Gideon is a dragon shifter. He has the reputation of being a bad boy, but it didnāt really come across that way (well I didnāt to me š¤·š»āāļø) He loves his job. He makeās jewellery for the family run business. (Now this is where it differs from Ella, we meet, and hear about his family all the time š¤)
I liked how the author (through Gideon) explains how the shifter community works. How they shift/meet other dragons and how they live in general, (they are governed by a dragon council) We got the information in a way that wasnāt just an information dump (you get some authors just unload too much too soon!)
Meeting leads to obvious chemistry between Ella and Gideon. One thing leads to anotherā¦. The bedroom scenes are spicy š„µ but there arenāt too many (lately all Iāve been reading is no plot and lots of $ex, it gets a little monotonous)
Did make me roll my eyes when they decided they werenāt going to be together, they wanted to continue their own lives separately. Itās good to have conflict, itās ok to make them realise they will be happier together. (Nothing worse than no drama) but both Gideon and Ella got a little whiny (that is me skipping a few pages)
I loved Felicity, Ella’s friend/roommate, sheās an absolute blast. Witty and totally out there, but we all need a friend like that. Some of the stuff she comes out with had me chuckling.
So when an opportunity arises that could end theyād bond, will they take it? or will they finally realise what they have really is special?
Storyline is fairly original and straightforward. Characters are well thought out.
Itās descriptive without wasting pages. A recommended read if you like your shifter stories. Iād love Felicity to get a story, that would a fun read.
