He’ll do anything in his power to protect her.
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.

He’s wealthy, he’s dominant and he’s very, very sexy. Clearly Darius is a force to be reckoned with, and his secrets are kept well hidden. How can you tell people you are thousands of years old and that you truly are larger than life, more than a mere human, but part dragon, too? Darius is a drakon ...more
This book has me torn. N.J. Walters is one of my go-to authors so I expect a lot from her. The storyline was great, the characters compelling and interesting, and the antagonists fascinating. But I found myself getting frustrated and which led me to constantly setting the books aside. It took me thr ...more

I really liked the twist on the ...more
3.5 ~ Bring On the Drakons ~ Stars!
The set up to this new paranormal series was awesome. Although both Darius and Sarah were a little too serious and straight forward at times (and there is nothing wrong with that) I just felt that at times a good humorous moment would have gone a long way to ligh ...more
3.75 Stars
I admit I skimmed through most of the sex scenes because... bored. Otherwise, there was quite a bit of action and the world-building was pretty imaginative. ...more

Darius sometimes forgets himself, “ah, you might want to get something for yourself, too.” ****. He’d gotten so caught up in taking care of Sarah, he’d forgotten he was bare-*** naked." It's quite obvious that Darius and his brother are the meat and potato sort, “what about a salad?” Both men looked ...more

Wow! It's been a bit since I have read something fresh about Dragons. This is a new to me author, but I was completely blown away! I scooped up the next two books as well and read them back to back.
Darius is a Drakon--half human, half Dragon--and he and his brothers have been in hiding mos ...more
Trope heavy story with huge dragon H, he's old and an introvert. This leads to his biggest mistake, he's not tech savvy and it causes him to put heroine at risk. She's human but has a gift, and very frightened by her attraction to him. She's very real, I would have like to see more of her gift, and ...more

I really liked this book! For some reasons, I'm weak for dragon shifter's romance. I thought this book was a great mixture of suspense, action and romance.
