chez_jaeJust finished reading Kiss of Fire by Deborah Cooke. This is the first book in her "Dragonfire" series.
The story was a paranormal romance, with the shifter element being dragons. Quinn Tyrell, known to the Pyr as the Smith, is destined to meet and mate with human Sara Keegan. Quinn has turned his back on his own kind, feeling they failed him when he needed them most.
As for Sara, she knows nothing of shifters, until she is attacked one evening by a Slayer and rescued by Quinn. Among dragonkind, the Pyr are the "good guys", tasked with guarding the Earth and the humans who inhabit it, whereas Slayers wish to destroy humankind.
Sara is the prophesied Seer, and the Slayers will do anything to prevent the union of Smith and Seer. Sara is drawn into the war between the factions of dragons, all while trying to come to terms with her growing regard for Quinn. For Quinn's part, he is reluctantly drawn back into the war, but he will do what he must to protect Sara.
I don't often read straight-up paranormal romance any more, but this book reminded me why I used to be enamored of the genre. It's a well-written story, filled with fascinating characters. The battle scenes were exciting, and the sex was hot.
:D
Four "stars"!
