Dragon Knights, Book 5

Years ago, Drake left everything behind for a life in the shadows. While it broke his heart to leave his grieving dragon behind, serving his land as head of a network of spies suited him better. Far better than never quite measuring up to Mace, the "perfect" knight his father wished he could have been.

Mace has always done his duty. Drake, his childhood friend and rival, had been the charmer who effortlessly stole every woman who caught Mace's eye. Some things never change—not one day back in town, and Drake's already putting the moves on Krysta, the woman Mace has been courting.

The three of them take on the dangerous task of rescuing a kidnapped prince. Each day that passes on their perilous journey, Krysta sinks deeper into the complicated relationship between the two men and their meddling, matchmaking dragons. Mace is clearly the safer choice as a mate, yet Drake tantalizes her with that unpredictable gleam in his eye. When the three of them come together, any sense of torn loyalty burns away in their fiery passion.

The safety of the stolen prince hanging in the balance, Krysta accepts the challenge to unite two strong men -- and their dragons -- into a real family.

Warning: Features an intensely magical menage between two former rivals and a woman bold enough to take them on. Heated bickering and explosive love scenes may cause your senses to ignite.

Main Characters

  • Drake - a famous Jinn troubadour and spymaster, Drake returns to the land of his birth, the family he ran from, and the dragon he left behind.
  • Krysta - warrior woman of the Jinn, spymaster for her clan, Krysta is the goto girl when trouble arises.
  • Sir Mace - diligent and steadfast, Mace has little humor until Krysta enters his life. He admired Drake's carefree ways and natural talent when they were growing up, but he fears he doesn't stand a chance with Krysta if Drake wants her too.
  • Jenet - a young female dragon the stunning color of dawn, she pines for Drake. She will have no other for her knight partner as long as he lives.
  • Nellin - a young male dragon who is partner to the very serious Sir Mace. Nellin brings mischief to his knight and a sense of the ridiculous, but they are a mighty fighting team.

5 Hearts from The Romance Studio! Rosalyn Writer said: "Ms. D’Arc certainly did NOT disappoint. Every bit as exciting and alluring as the first tales, FireDrake continues building on the story that began with Maiden Flight...The plot is extremely detailed and well planned – each scene and bit of information falling into place like a uniquely crafted puzzle...it is very easy to lose oneself in the storyline. The main characters’ strengths and weaknesses are portrayed in beautifully written and often very emotional scenes...I would HIGHLY recommend this story to anyone who enjoys a delightful foray into the realm of dragons, knights, and fantasy. It is by far one of the best series this reader has ever had the pleasure of reading."
