Saved By Her Dragon ( Dragon Guards #5) by Julia Mills


Description


There Are No Coincidences…
Devon’s heritage has given him a unique perspective into the world around him. His father was one of the fiercest Guardsmen in history and his mother is a very talented and highly respected Healer. At the age of his transformation he made the choice to follow in his father’s footsteps and become a Guardsman but in his heart he always carried the belief and wisdom of his mother’s clan. That knowledge and his complete trust in Destiny may be all that saves the One the Universe made for him.

The Universe Does Not Make Mistakes…
Orphaned as a child and raised by powerful Earth witches, Anya Sloane thought her life was pretty normal and relatively happy until the night she left the family farm and headed into town. Abducted and left for dead outside the hospital, she spent the better part of a month fighting her way out of a magically induced coma only to wake and find everything she’d ever knew was little more than smoke and mirrors.

Fate Will Not Be Denied…
Anya is the light of his soul and the only woman able to tame the beast within. Devon has the strength and knowledge she will need in the coming days. Together, they just may be the key to saving Dragon kin. All they have to do is defeat the traitor…but that means they have to find him first.

My Review 



I wondered about the quiet and calm natured Devon since the beginning and I loved his story. I was concerned that the one meant for him was in a coma and the traitor was the reason why.  Always it comes back to Andrew and the evil things he does. Again this book far exceeded my expectations and the action and adventure in it just keeps you so engrossed in it I couldn't put it down! I'm rating this one in at five hearts!

Early on she learned to use all she was given to achieve her goals and twenty-five years ago, turned her back on her birthright hoping that one day Destiny would bring her the love she was promised. Her belief that she will doing anything for that love is stretched to the breaking point when the One she waited for will not accept who she is and can only see what she is.

Since joining the Golden Fire Clan, he has been proud to watch all whom he calls brethren become fierce warriors, ever faithful to eradicating those that would destroy all they hold dear. His life has been dedicated to the training and guidance of the younger Guardsmen, one of his proudest accomplishments. One hundred and fifty-six years of life have given him immeasurable joy and now that three of his brethren have found and mated the One the Universe made for them, hope has been restored not only to the honorable Guardsman but also to dragon kin. Unfortunately, Royce is learning that Hope can be fickle and the Universe has a sick sense of humor, especially when they have made his Destiny in the form of a five-foot two-inch bundle of powerful Earth witch named Kyra St. Croix.

The Universe Does Not Make Mistakes…

Two souls…destined for a Great Love decreed by Fate. But Fate has Her hands full with this couple and if that wasn’t enough, the traitor has an army ready to destroy all they both hold dear. Can Royce forget the past and believe in the future? Can Kyra forgive a betrayal that cuts deep and believe Love will always find a way? Can they defeat an evil with no conscience, only the desire for vengeance? The Universe, the Goddess and Fate have their work cut out for them if Kyra is to know the love of her dragon.

My Review 

First off let me say this series has been a bumpy ride due to the traitor and all the trouble he causes. Secondly, Royce has been a strong and wonderful friend to all throughout this, so imagine my surprise to find him being not the caring and loving person he normally is but almost certainly damaged! My god, the poor dear had a tragic time of it when he was younger and it has stayed with him all these years and when he finds out his mate is a witch it's like a switch has been flipped! I was ready to smack him myself and tell him to pull his head out of his ass! Again in this book the traitor has them all running around and though we have a witch to help track him down you have to know this gs go wrong all the time and this was no different.  When Royce finally behaves like himself again I was so relieved for him. We find out a tiny bit more about Sydney and I'm still quivering in my boots to find out the whole story lol. Overall another excellent book I'm rating five stars!!

Haunted by her Dragon ( Dragon Guards #3) by Julia Mills


Description 


Life has never been easy for Dr. Samantha Malone especially since the day all those years ago that her family was taken in a tragic car accident. Now at almost twenty-nine years old and an aspiring surgeon, she is faced with putting her life back together once again after being kidnapped and left for dead. Had it not been for six feet two inches of walking muscle in ripped jeans and worn cowboy boots with crystal blue eyes and a cheeky grin that made her wonder what he was up to, she might never have seen the light of day. All these months later she knows he protects her from the shadows, never far but never seen. Why? What does he know that she does not?

There are no coincidences. 

He protects her, always unseen but never far, making sure the ones that dared to hurt her do not come back while he waits for the time when he can claim her as his own. Fear is not something the fierce Dragon Guardsman is used to feeling but it is something he has become accustomed to over the last seven months. Fear that he will not catch the traitor and his cohorts before they hurt those he cares most deeply for. Fear that he will not be able to protect the one the Universe made especially for him. Fear that he is not what Samantha needs but then…

The Universe does not make mistakes.

Lance has spent his long life cracking jokes and making fun of his brethren as each succumbed to the sappiness of everlasting love with the one that completes them like no other. Now the Universe is the one laughing and his fellow Guardsmen are the ones making jokes as the mating call of his kin and his dragon push him headlong towards the one that will bring light to his soul in this life and the next. He can no longer deny that he is meant to spend the rest of his many years with Sam but his obligation to eliminate any threats to her life must come first…right? For the Guardsman who has hot-dogged his way through one hundred and twelve years, one brown-eyed curly-headed doctor will make him rethink everything he ever knew.

Fate will not be denied.

My Review 

I was sooooo excited for this one because Lance has been one of my favorite characters since I started this series! I wondered who would be the one to tame that gorgeous jokester. Reading his story was fabulous! I fell even more for him while reading. I love Sydney and I'm curious as to her importance in the series. While we find out some it's not enough To soothe my curiosity lol. Sam is perfect for Lance and I loved their coming together. Again I'm rating this book in at five hearts and that is proof this has become one of my favorite series!

This is the third installment to Mal and Christina’s story. While everything has been leading up to this moment I still was excited while reading it! The characters play such an integral part to the books and they all engrave themselves in your heart. I love how things were answered and how it ended. The way Christina really started to come into her own was great But at times I wasn't sure she was going to come out on top. Overall a great read I'm rating it in at four hearts.

My Review 

Wow, wow, wow!!! I am so in love with this series and the characters!  In the first book we had a glimpse at the sadness inside Aidan and the reasons behind it, but this book being his story tells us more than before. Not only that but we get to hear his brothers point of views as well..no matter how twisted they may be. I love how the girls are getting nicknames, it shows how much they are respected by the guys.  The story is so amazing and full of adventure even more so than the first I believe.  I also am loving our introduction to the next installment at the end of each book. I am rating this one in at Five Hearts!!

Her Dragon To Slay ( Dragon Guards #1) by Julia Mills


Description 


Lots of sass and the patented cock of her eyebrow have gotten Kyndel through most anything life has thrown at her. But will her moxie help when her destiny falls at her feet on a long dark trip home from work? 


Over 100 years of honor and commitment to his ancient clan’s Guard have made Rayne the fearless leader all are proud to follow into battle. When the long foretold pull of his mate makes the calm, cool and collected Commander fall from the sky will he be able to save his mate from his enemies in time? 

The chemistry between this strong-willed curvy girl and fierce warrior makes all the difference in the world where nothing is as it seems. The existence of an ancient race of honor-clad, tradition-bound protectors might be hard to accept but now the dead are coming back to life and holding a knife to her neck. 

The Universe made her for him now it’s up to them to stay alive long enough to live happily ever after.

My Review 

Ok so I was introduced to Julia Mills when I saw an advertisement for her newest book in the Dragon Guard series on Facebook.  Before that I had never heard of the series much less her. Having said that I admit to loving all things dragon and immediately went to Amazon and looked for the first book in the series. While I was happy to buy it I was pleasantly surprised to see it was available on my Kindle Unlimited account, so I decided to check it out that way. What followed was an argument with my husband about putting it away and cooking dinner lol. I was so engrossed in the book I lost track of time and I didn't want to stop reading. Sooooo after winning said argument I finished the book whole he cooked lol. 

Oh my goodness what a beginning to this series people!! It has everything you could possibly want in a book! Sexy alpha men who turn into magnificent dragons who want to find their life mate and keep her safe, danger and crazy people who make life ineresting, family drama, sexy and steamy love scenes, and the most important true love. This was such a good book I immediately went on to the next book in the series and am inhaling it as fast as possible.  I wish I had found this series earlier, but the good news is now I can binge read it lol.  I'm rating this one in at Five Hearts!!!

Jaded by Shevaun DeLucia




New Adult
Date Published: April 10, 2015

 photo add-to-goodreads-button_zpsc7b3c634.png


 Maxine Daniels was made an offer that she couldn’t refuse. She couldn’t think of a better time—after breaking things off with her fiancé—to change cities and merge her company with Saunders Literary Agency. At thirty-three, she isn’t getting any younger, so it’s time to start fresh and leave her past behind.


What she doesn’t anticipate is the diversion that lies ahead. Kyle Saunders is a catastrophic tsunami that enters her life and consumes her world in just a matter of minutes. Everything about him is telling her no, but her heart and the heat between her legs is screaming yes. He was never a factor in her divine plan—nor was she in his.

Kyle is the cliché bachelor; he is a twenty-four-year-old charismatic chick magnet who refuses to settle down. He’s dead set on living the carefree single life—that is—until Max comes strolling in. Then all his ridiculous rules fall to the wayside. Who knew that just one hello could alter their lives forever?

 

EXCERPT

My mouth hangs open. It’s like time freezes, and all I can think is holy fuck! I’m speechless. Never in my life have I been speechless or caught off-guard to this magnitude. The woman in front of me is fucking hot! On fire! I slowly take her in, starting with her high red pumps, long legs, and tight red skirt reaching her knees, hugging one amazing ass and some unGodly shaped hips. Man, those hips though. I can already see my hands being at home on those hips. My eyes drift up to her tiny waist and voluptuous breasts. Yum. Her face is flawless: lips plush and eyes a beautiful iridescent blue, which completely contrasts against her darker complexion and the brown of her hair. Simple perfection.

I must be standing here like a doof, making an ass of myself, because she smiles with a tiny bit of amusement. She reaches her hand out to me. “Hello. You must be Kyle?”

I continue to stare, completely mesmerized. It takes me a moment to snap out of it. “Uh, yes, I’m Kyle. You must be Maxine.” I grab her hand, immediately feeling the softness of her skin. “It’s nice to meet you,” I say with a smile.

“It’s just Max,” she informs me.
