For
millennia, the shape-shifting dragon warriors known as the Pyr have
commanded the four elements and guarded the earth's treasures. But
now the final reckoning between the Pyr, who count humans among the
earth's treasures, and the Slayers, who would eradicate both humans
and the Pyr who protect them, is about to begin...
When Sara Keegan decides to settle down and run her quirky aunt's New Age bookstore, she's not looking for adventure. She doesn't believe in fate or the magic of the tarot-but when she's saved from a vicious attack by a man who has the ability to turn into a fire-breathing dragon, she questions whether she's losing her mind-or about to lose her heart...
Quinn Tyrrell has long been distrustful of his fellow Pyr and a self-reliant loner. So when he feels the firestorm that signals his destined mate, he's determined to protect and possess Sara, regardless of the cost to himself. Then Sara's true destiny is revealed-and Quinn realizes he must risk everything- even Sara's love-to fulfill their entwined fates...

act of passion can save the world...
Scientist
Alexandra Madison was on the verge of unveiling an invention that
would change the world. Then her partner was murdered, their lab was
burned, and their prototype was destroyed. While Alex is in the
hospital recovering from burns suffered in the fire, recurring
dragon-haunted nightmares threaten to land her in the psychiatric
ward, but she knows she has to escape to her lab to rebuild the Green
Machine.
Handsome,
daring, and impulsive, Donovan Shea is more than willing to do his
part in the Pyr/Slayer war.
Assigned to protect Alex, Donovan is shocked when her presence
ignites his firestorm. He has no desire for a destined mate, but
Alex's intelligence and determination inspire him to join the fight
to save her invention. With the Slayers closing
in, Donovan knows he would surrender his life for Alex...and lose his
heart to possess her.

One
foretold love deserves a second chance...

triumph over theSlayers,
even if it costs him his life. When an ancient relic that can turn
the tide of the battle reveals itself, Erik knows he has to retrieve

about Eileen's identity. Her presence reminds him of mistakes he's
determined not to repeat, and Erik is forced to make a choice: duty
or love.
Only
by unlocking the secrets of the past can Erik and Eileen fulfill the
final prophecy of the Pyr.
Can they face their deepest fears and claim their destined love in
time to defeat the Slayers?

Winter Kiss (Dragonfire #4)
A
kiss can melt the coldest heart...
The
mysterious Dragon's Blood Elixir gives immortality to Magnus,
the Pyr's
greatest enemy, and his minions. The Pyr must
destroy this source of power, and outcast Delaney vows to complete
the quest himself. Delaney was exiled because of his dangerous
impulses, and success in eliminating the Elixir will either redeem
him or end his suffering.
But
his plans don't take into account his sudden firestorm - or fiery
Ginger Sinclair. The firestorm revitalizes Delaney, restoring him to
his old self. And when Ginger learns about Delaney's mission, she
realizes she cannot resist a strong man with a noble agenda.
Whisper Kiss (Dragonfire #5)
One
man's mission ignites one woman's fire...

Blood Elixir - before they can wreak more havoc. Among them is his
dead twin brother, making Niall's mission not only dangerous but
personal.
Tattoo
artist Rox believes the world is a canvas to be made more beautiful.
An unconventional spirit who isn't afraid of anything, she doesn't

her doorstep. And as a woman who follows her heart in matters of
passion, she makes the perfect mate for a firestorm with Niall...

For
one woman, he will risk more than his life...
Rafferty
Powell has exchanged challenge coins with his arch-nemesis Magnus
Montmorency, and their next battle will be their last. But Rafferty
never expected to meet a woman whose desire for Magnus’ downfall
matches his own—and whose presence sparks Rafferty’s long-awaited
firestorm.
Since
facing her own mortality, investigative reporter Melissa Smith has
resolved to live without fear. She’s determined to make the
seemingly untouchable Magnus pay for his role in ending her friend’s
life – no matter the price to herself.
When
her quest entwines with Rafferty’s, Melissa finds herself risking
more than she ever thought possible. Because the heat between them
unleashes the darkfire—an awesome force of Pyrlegend,
one that won’t be sated until everything they know has been tested
and remade.
Flashfire (Dragonfire #7)
He's
lost all hope...until she changes everything.
Master
illusionist Lorenzo wants nothing to do with the Pyr.
His dragon nature is just another secret to hide and another detail
to juggle, like ensuring that each of his Las Vegas magic shows is a
true spectacle. Until he feels the burn of his firestorm and his
whole world shifts....
Cassie
Redmond is tired of photographing celebrities. She wants to pursue
her dream of serious photography—despite the lucrative offer for a
shot of a dragon shifter. Las Vegas is the last place she wants to
be, but Lorenzo arouses more than her curiosity when he shifts shape
as the finale of his show. Instead of forcing him to reveal his
secrets, Cassie gets swept away by this illusionist’s masterful
touch.
Lorenzo
wants to satisfy the firestorm and put it behind him. But Cassie is
hard to forget—and he can’t ignore the danger whenSlayers target
the mate Lorenzo didn’t believe he wanted...
