| Dragon Heat (Dragon Series, Book 1) by Berkley Don't annoy Dragons for you are good and tasty with ketchup!!!! | | I thoroughly enjoyed this book. Lisa is portrayed as a very witty and sweet person. Caleb is very endearing and a mixture of brawn and brains. I am so glad to read a book that puts a different spin on dragons and shows a difference amongst them too. Their are different sects of dragons that think differently and have different trades (work wise). I look forward to reading many more books in this series. | | Dragon Heat (Dragon Series, Book 1) by Berkley 5 Klovers - Courtesy of CK2S Kwips & Kritiques | Lisa Singleton inherited her late Grandmother's apartment along with everything in it - including the full-size dragon her Grandmother never warned her was living in the guest room! Caleb has been set as Lisa's protector by the witches who control him, a task he doesn't mind at all- especially when she talks to him and lets him have the remote for the TV.
OK, so it is a little unusual for a Golden Dragon, known as a powerful warrior, to enjoy life as a couch potato. But it is even more unusual to have a dragon living in your spare bedroom. Then again, things get even stranger when that dragon suddenly turns into a human hunk and settles himself comfortably and naked on the living room sofa!
When the infamous Black Dragon and an evil witch both target the innocent Lisa, Caleb will do anything to save the beautiful human woman he has come to love more than life itself.
Why, oh WHY did it take me so long to read this wonderful book that I have had languishing away on my book case for so long??? I bought Dragon Heat, the first story in Allyson James' Dragon Series, months ago. Unfortunately, I had not yet found time to move it up my too-large (no complaints, though) to-be-read pile. But it was certainly very near the top, since I have a particular penchant for any story that has dragons in it, whether they are the shape shifting variety or not.
Lucky for me, the sequel to this story came to CK2S Kwips and Kritiques for review, giving me the perfect excuse to move Dragon Heat to the top of that TBR pile! All I can say is, this series is now on my pre-order list! OK, that's not really all I can say about it; I'm way too long-winded for that.
One of the things I love best about this book is that, while it is not a comedy, Ms. James' infuses it with a good dose of natural humor throughout the story. As a person who finds humor in most real-life situations, I really appreciate that quality in the books I read. I mean, come on, the situation lends itself easily to laughter. A remote control wielding dragon living in a woman's guest-room? Plus, the juxtaposition of the comedy alongside the darker nature of the story as the villains attempt to destroy Lisa and Caleb keeps the story very entertaining.
The author delivers several twists to the plot, at least one of which I never suspected, but totally enjoyed when it happened. Having been bred on mystery novels growing up, I am pretty adept at figuring out the surprises in a story, so I always appreciate when an author manages to pull something over on me in a manner which is logical.
I really can't praise this story enough. For those of us who relish a romance with a great dose of fantasy, paranormal and suspense, Dragon Heat is a story not to be missed!

Dragon Heat (Dragon Series, Book 1)
The Black Dragon (Dragon Series, Book 2) | | Dragon Heat (Dragon Series, Book 1) by Berkley Dragon Heat - Hot | | Dragon Heat fast paced, funny romance where you quickly begin to identify with the characters and they are CHARACTERS - each with their own quirks that give them their own vitality. Sometimes it is the secondary characters who steal the show. Keep a eye out for Ming Ue as she often steals the show. | | Dragon Heat (Dragon Series, Book 1) by Berkley so far, boring | | Have read the first 1/2 of the book, found it boring. Will finish it sometime. Don't hold too much hope for it. | | Dragon Heat (Dragon Series, Book 1) by Berkley In love with dragons | | Lisa Singleton's dragon at first seemed strange, how was he going to get into her world, or was she going to be taken into his, when he arrived so very surprisingly as Caleb, and took care of the Black Dragon's pawn, I just knew it I was in for a great read, and happy few hours out of the real world. Allyson James has given me a book about dragons that have them as lover, fighter, protector and not the normal villain of the piece. I enjoyed the humor, as Caleb tried to understand the worlds ways, his need for a very large sword to fight the Black Dragon, and the shock of what his human love would do, not all what he would do with his arch enemy. I am not good at writing reviews, telling you what I like about a book on paper ah well, telling you when I can with my words well, hay, pick it up, get cozy, and tune into Allyson James's world for a little while, you'll be glad you did! P. S. This is a light read, not a heavy tomb, and if you don't like a love story with a twist, then forgetaboutit! | | Dragon Heat (Dragon Series, Book 1) by Berkley Product Description | | Lisa Singleton has an unusual roommate-a fifty-foot dragon named Caleb who has glittering scales and a bad attitude. Little does she know that Caleb is actually a powerful warrior sent to protect her from those out to steal her magic and destroy the world. Or that Caleb can take the human form of a sexy hunk. Now, if he doesn't stop distracting her with those gorgeous bedroom eyes, they may not have time to stop their enemies before all of existence is wiped out. At least Lisa and Caleb will have savored every last minute. |
