THROWBACK THRUSDAY--DRAKON'S TEAR

The Throwback Thursday book this week is DRAKON'S TEAR, the sixth book in the Blood of the Drakon series.

Drakon’s Tear

Blood of the Drakon, Book 6

 

Dying isn't an option. I've survived a kidnapping, and now I'm on the run from the Knights of the Dragon who want my gift. There's nothing a dragon loves more than treasure. I'm Abigail Owens, and I can sense gemstones. When I find myself drawn to a beautiful stone bracelet at a tiny shop in Moscow, I can't help but have it — even though I can sense it's power. But I didn't realize with this one decision I've just put myself in the middle of a war between the Knights and a Drakon.

 

I guess I'm just lucky like that.

 

The only person I trust even a little is Vasili Zima, which is weird since I’m not sure if he wants to kill me or protect me. I'm drawn to him in a way I hadn't thought possible, and he feels the same way, or he wouldn't be risking his life to help me. He's wanted by the bad guys just as much as I am, and staying with me, well, there's a hundred percent chance I'm about to get us both killed. But I will not be going down without a fight.

TEASER:

His heart pumped hard in his chest, and his lungs expanded with each breath he took. He met her gaze. “You are mine.”

He waited to see if she would object. He knew times had changed. Women were independent. And while he had no problem with that, even admired it, there was a part of him that was far more primitive.

She belonged to him, and he belonged to her.

“You are mine.” She gave his words back to him, and his dragon, which had been restless for centuries, practically purred. He wanted to be claimed by her. Wanted to belong to someone in this godforsaken world. Needed a reason other than the gaining of knowledge and wealth to occupy his days.

Abigail would give him purpose, a reason to carry on. But mostly, he wanted her love.

“I am,” he told her. He arched one brow and waited.

“I am,” she repeated.

He knew she truly didn’t understand what she was agreeing to, but he didn’t care. He hadn’t felt lonely until he’d met her. Hadn’t understood the depths of his emptiness until she was suddenly here, pouring into every crevice and canyon of his being.

“Abigail.” Such a perfect name for such a perfect creature.

TUESDAY TEASER--DRAKON UNCHAINED

The Tuesday Teaser this week comes from DRAKON UNCHAINED, the fifth book in the Blood of the Drakon series.

TEASER:

“If you know what Mr. Temple and his Knight friends are doing, why are you working for them?” It was a question she should have asked before she kissed him.

She sensed the change in him. Although he was still holding her, he seemed more distant. “I have my reasons,” he told her.

Frustrated, she drilled her finger against his chest and met a wall of solid muscle. “Not good enough. If I tell you my secrets, you have to share yours with me.” It was only fair, and it would help her believe he truly was on her side.

“How about you tell me how you know about the Knights of the Dragon first?” He wrapped his hand around hers and stopped her from poking him.

It didn’t matter if he knew. She was already in way over her head. If Luther was only using her, she was dead anyway. It was almost a relief to be able to tell someone else after all these years.

Drakon Unchained

Blood of the Drakon, Book 5

 

Victoria Marshall is living a lie. She works for a member of the Knights of the Dragon, a secret society that traps and uses dragons for their own gain. As a child, she made an unlikely friend—a drakon. He went missing, and she’s spent the past twenty years searching for him. The only thing distracting her from her mission is Luther Henderson, her boss’s new head of security.

 

Luther is also living a lie. One, if discovered, could lead to a fate worse than death. He’s attracted to Victoria, but can’t fully trust her, doesn’t know if she’s truly innocent or a true member of the Knights. It’s not only his life at stake, but those of the people he loves.

 

As they’re thrust deeper into the dangerous dealings of the Knights, they each have to share their secrets in order to survive.

THROWBACK THURSDAY--DRAKON'S PAST

Continuing with books from the Blood of the Drakon series, this week's Throwback Thursday pick is DRAKON'S PAST.

Drakon’s Past

Blood of the Drakon, Book 4

 

Constance Owens has a gift for finding unique items in the most unlikely places, which comes in handy since she buys and sells artifacts and antiques for a living. When she purchases a set of four dragon statues, she has no idea just how unique they are, or that finding them will thrust her into a world of secret societies, men who think nothing of kidnapping and murder to get what they want, and dragon shifters.

 

Nic hasn’t survived for four thousand years by letting his guard down, and he doesn’t trust anyone except his drakon brothers. The loneliness haunting him has been getting worse since all his brothers have found their mates. And when he finds the woman his drakon recognizes instantly as his fated mate, he doubts he’ll ever have what his brothers have, because it seems she’s involved with the secret society of hunters who have been hunting and capturing his kind for hundreds of years.

TEASER:

Nic wished this situation had ended differently. He wished he’d been able to rescue Constance’s sister. He wanted to be her hero.

Which was stupid. He was nobody’s hero. All he needed to do was get those statues from her. He could take them and walk away, let her deal with the fallout with Dent.

But that would make him no different from the Knights. He’d also never be able to look at himself in the mirror ever again. His dragon might revolt if he tried. The creature was as fascinated with Constance as the human part of him was. There was something about her that drew him on a deep, emotional level, that called to his very soul.

TEASER TUESDAY--DRAKON'S PLUNDER

This week I'm featuring DRAKON'S PLUNDER for Teaser Tuesday. This is the third book in the Blood of the Drakon series. Ezra is a water drakon, and he's determined to keep his treasure at any cost.

TEASER:

“Did you sleep with me to get information?” she demanded.

The stranger swore, but she didn’t care about the voice on the phone, only about Ezra. He shook his head. “I slept with you because I had to.” He reached out and stroked the side of her face. She didn’t flinch away, nor did she react. “I plucked you out of the sea,” he continued. “You’re mine now.”

And what the hell did he mean by that? “I’m not salvage.”

He loomed over her, closing the gap between them. “No, you’re not salvage. You’re treasure. My treasure.”

Drakon’s Plunder

Blood of the Drakon, Book 3

 

Life is not going well for archaeologist Sam Bellamy. She’s stuck in the middle of the ocean on a salvage boat with people who want her dead. It wasn’t her gift for being able to sense objects of power that got her here, rather her need to make a secret society called the Knights of the Dragon pay for killing her mentor. Sam doesn’t believe in dragons, but the Knights do, and if she can get one of the sacred artifacts they’re searching for away from them, she’ll consider it payback.

                     

Ezra Easton is content to run his marine salvage company and live alone on his private island. He may be a four-thousand-year-old water drakon, but he’s civilized enough to know just because he pulls an injured woman from the ocean, doesn’t mean he gets to keep her...

 

When she wakes up, she has a few tall tales to share, and it seems the Knights are after her. But this drakon won’t give up his treasure.

THROWBACK THURSDAY--DRAKON'S PREY

The Throwback Thursday book for this week is Drakon's Prey, book 2 in the Blood of the Drakon series.

Drakon’s Prey

Blood of the Drakon, Book 2

 

Valeriya Azarov turned her back on the family business to write and illustrate children’s books. But with a sister who leads the Knights of the Dragon, it’s impossible to get away from the secret society whose mission is to destroy and enslave dragons. When information falls into her hands along with the opportunity to save at least one of the ancient creatures, she can’t turn away any longer.

                                

When a woman moves into the cabin above Tarrant Cooper’s secret underground lair, he’s both suspicious and intrigued. He hasn’t lasted four thousand years being careless, so when he suspects her of being a part of the Knights, the plan is to kidnap her and find out how much the organization knows about him and his brothers.

 

He’s drawn to Valeriya, but trusting her could get him killed. Even if she’s a pawn in the war between drakons and Knights, giving her his heart would mean forever.

TEASER:

“What’s your name?” she suddenly demanded. She’d kissed him and didn’t even know his name.

He opened the refrigerator door and pulled out several packages.

“Hey.” She knew it was crazy to demand anything from this man, but she was past all caution. “I asked you a question.”

“And if I answer it, you’ll never be able to leave here.” The way he said it, with little inflection, stopped her in her tracks.

It was a variation of “If I tell you, I’ll have to kill you.” It was used in the movies all the time, but Valeriya didn’t think this man was joking.

Tuesday Teaser--Drakon's Promise

 Tuesday Teaser is from Drakon's Promise, the first book in my Blood of the Dragon series.

Drakon’s Promise

Blood of the Drakon, Book 1

 

Darius Varkas is a drakon. He's neither human nor dragon.

 

He's both.

 

He's also the target of an ancient order who want to capture all drakons for their blood. When fresh, a drakon's blood can cure any illness and prolong a human's life, and the Knights will stop at nothing to get it.

 

When librarian Sarah Anderson stumbles across a rare book belonging to the Knights of the Dragon, she's quickly thrust into a dangerous world of secrets and shifters and things she never would have believed possible. When the Knights realize Sarah has a secret of her own, she becomes just as much a target as Darius. Her scary dragon shifter just might be her best chance at survival.

TEASER:

Darius set the book carefully on the floor and began to unbutton his shirt. Sarah took another step back up the stairs but couldn’t tear her gaze away from the swatch of deeply tanned skin he exposed.

“What are you doing?” She winced at the husky sound of her voice.

“Showing you I’m not crazy,” he reminded her.

“Ah, yeah.” She momentarily lost her train of thought when he tossed his shirt aside and then bent to remove his shoes. “Not sure that’s working.” The man was stripping in front of her and she couldn’t take her eyes off him.
