To make her his, he must earn her trust

A Powerful Secret


Aria Sparks has always known she is different... her singing can heal the sick and wounded. She'd kept her magic hidden all her life, but when a coven of vampires snatches her for her potent blood, it only confirms she must keep her secret to herself.

A Dragon Warrior

Dax is convinced Aria is his mate, and he will stop at nothing to save her from the vampires' clutches. But winning her trust will require more patience than this burly warrior knows how to muster.

Secrets Exposed

When Dax discovers Aria's secret, his graceless ways could ruin everything. Can a gentle songstress trust the brash warrior with not only her magic but her heart? And when it all seems lost, can Aria find her inner strength and discover the true extent of her power?

Music Soothes The Soul.....

Dragon Guardian Dax has always been the strongest of the crew always first in a fight and the one to take on the brunt of it, he has never known how to be romantic just dragonish. He is also very sweet and easy going, but when he sees Aria being held captive by the vampires, that all goes out the window and his crew doesn't recognize the man. All he wants to do is go to the mansion kill all the vampires and rescue the human.. He will soon learn that he must curb his attitude if he is to earn the trust and love of his Dragon Soul.

Aria has a huge secret and she is not ready to share it with anyone, she never has, she was kidnapped by creatures she never knew existed and then she is rescued by others, how can she trust anyone? She does feel a pull towards her rescuer with his surfer looks, but he is too gruff for her taste... She has never felt she belonged anywhere, so she can relate to Dax, how must he feel after being asleep for a million years and waking up on a different planet? Aria soon discovers that her secret is way more than she ever imagined and she finally feels like she belongs. Not to mention the passion Dax makes her feel.

I’m having a bad day. Because Alien Dragon Shifters with super-duper space technology? Usually that kind of ridiculous over the top mashup is my cup of spiked tea. This time? Not so much.

I love the fact that Ms. Grove has given us a new series full of hot and steamy dragons, and the beautiful "human" women that seem to be able to bring them to their knees. In this episode, we encounter Aria, as she is kidnapped by the evil vampires. Even though she knew that magic existed in the world, she is still having a hard time believing that vampires exist. Her own magic is part of her normal, but deep down, she knows the world holds many unknowns, and apparently, vampires are one of them. Oh! Lets not forget the dragons who come to her rescue also! Seriously, she's starting to question her own sanity! But when the ruggedly good looking Dax comes to her rescue, who's she to question what is or isn't real? From being kidnapped and being held in extreme unfavorable conditions, to being rescued and held in wonderful conditions, she still feels like a prisoner. Will she ever be able to open herself up to Dax's love?
A beautiful love story full of action, pain, frustration, heat and love, you won't want to put it down once you start.
I received a copy of this book an am voluntarily giving my honest opinion.

This is Dax and Aria's story . Dax is with the rest of his crew as they learn that the vampires have taken another Dragon Soul to feed on . When he sees the hologram of Aria he knows in his heart and soul that she is his mate . Wanting to go right away to save her he is stopped so that a real plan can be enforced . Aria just left the nursing home where she loves working when strange men take her . While held in the tower after she learns that vampires are real she is informed that she will soon be fed upon . Aria has the gift of healing through song and she just knows that her end is near . Dax who is usually so laid back is staying fighting mad . All he wants is to mate with Aria but knows that he must learn romance and woo her but is unsure how . I love the way that he tries so hard to watch what he says , but when he sees her touching a rose and bringing it back to life and full bloom he makes a thoughtless comment to her that sends her angry and away from him . This is well written and strongly recommended to all .

A Wonderfully Fun Romance OVER 18 READING

Dax is the warrior dragon of their four man team. Just before their planet's sun died they left to find a new home. Finding Earth they seeded the plant with dragon souls in hopes that dragon souls (what they need for mates) would be born in the future human women. Then they went into stasis for a million years in their spaceship at the bottom of the ocean. They have awoken and found their old enemy the vampires have came here during the time they slept. In this book of their story Dax finds his mate a dragon soul with a powerful power all her own that she has never told anyone about. In a battle when vampires are attacking the dragon's home she will decide she is not taking it anymore. When she goes out to help she is even surprised at what her healing power can really do. This is the story of a dragon guardian (the warrior, Dax) who knows all about battle and taking on the worse of it so the rest of the four man team (fighters themselves) can do their other jobs and his dragon soul mate.

Dax felt the mate pull the minute he saw Aria on the screen. Alien Dragons come to earth long ago have awakened from stasis. They need to repopulate so they can protect the human from the enemy--Vampires. Only some of the women are able to mate with the dragons. They can only mate if they are fated and a biological match. Dax doesn't need the test. He knows.

For Aria, this is all new. Vampires? Dragons? And those dangerous Vamps want her over ordinary women. None of them even know of her power. She is attracted to Dax, yet afraid since he is a warrior and not your most romantic.

Is she his mate? Can he ease into a relationship? Will Aria give him a chance? With the Vampires added powers will they even have a chance to find out?

It's fun to watch Dax try to temper down his desire and woo the human.

Another series that interests the reader from the world the author has built to the sexy guys and strong women.

I am really enjoying this series thus far, dragons from another planet becoming guardians to keep both humans and the dragon Souls safe. Aria is a talented singer with a gift to heal she shares it with the elderly at a nursing home when she is kidnapped one night by a group of vampires and she discovers that the supernatural is real. Enter the guardians Dax is one of their strongest warriors but his mating instinct is brought low just getting a glimpse of Aria's photo then it triples when he actually scents her.

I liked how Ms. Grove brought these two together Aria just devoting her life to her elderly friends and her healing gift and Dax a bumbling dragon who was never trained on speaking from the heart. I think all the dragon shifter overs out there will fall in love with Dax just like Aria and I did.

I voluntarily read an advance copy and have not been compensated in any way for this opinion.

Brilliant

Loved this second book of the series. Dax has to save his mate even though he hasn’t met her yet his dragon knows she is it. Aria always knew she had magic and used it heal the old people in the nursing home she works at then one night on her way to her car she was kidnapped by the vampires her blood is special
to them as she is also a dragon soul. A fight happens the dragons rescuing Aria and the vampire fighting back. Aria is struggling to understand dragons and vampires exist but also feels cooped up and needs to be free. Dax. tries to make things better for Aria he has read and watched films to help him to know what women human like. The vampires come back to take Aria but she uses her song to give the dragons the magic and also able to kill them. Aria finds her place helping the dragons also in her heart she knows she is Dax mate and lets him claim. The threat from the vampires are still there but now she can help.

Please send me a dragon shifter....

I am loving these dragon shifter stories all interlinked but standalone... this one focuses on Dax and Aria a human with magical dragon powers...

The hero and heroine may change but the enemy remains the same: evil vampires with death and destruction on their minds...the premise is interesting and engaging and I am so besotted with all of these brother in arms as they seek save the world and find their true mates...

This is a fast paced, action packed paranormal novella with suspense and a whole lotta heat... I seriously need to get myself one of these guys....I received an advanced copy of this novella from the author.

Im just loving this series that Scarlett is bringing out. These dragons are large sexy and their women dragon soul mates just cant resist them. They certainly are made for each other.

Aria works at a nursing home with old people, she sings to them. But what people dont know is that, her gift of singing heals people. One night she is kidnapped by vampires, they want her blood because she is a special dragon soul.

Dax on seeing a picture of Aria knows instantly that she is his and his dragon is going mad with wanting to rescue her NOW. But before he meets his mate properly he must learn how to woe a lady.
Poor Aria is confused by all the dragons, vampires and then to be told she is mate to dax. Its up to Dax to help her through these times

A wonderful story so looking forward to the next in line

A good fun read but we now have a master vampire to contend with.
I would definitely recommend reading the first book Kian before this one so you have a better idea of what is happening.
Poor Dax, frustrated as all get out as Aria, who he believes to be his mate, has been taken by the vampires for them to feed from.
Aria has a powerful tool and weapon at her disposal, her voice. Definitely different.
A good fun story, as once they save Aria, Dax has to woo her as well as wait to be told by their computer if she is his mate. I love how a computer tells them if they are true mates, so funny and annoying at the same time.
Liked the ending and how they are learning new ways to strengthen and protect themselves from the nasty vamps.
This is my honest review of this book.

Dax and Aria

Aria has a secret power. She can heal people with her singing. She works as an orderly in a nursing home in order to help the elderly feel better. As she is leaving one night, she is kidnapped by vampires.
Cato placed listening and visual devices in the vampire mansion last time there were there. As soon as Dax saw Aria, he knew that they had to save her because she was his mate. They went to save her but Kian told Dax to wait for DNA testing to be sure that she is his mate.
They go through a lot as they fight the vampire and try to figure out their relationship. Aria is a little whiny in my opinion but she figures things out in the end.
I love the way the dragons finally figured out a way to get the upper hand on the vampires. Aiden's book is next.

I gave the series a second shot after I did not enjoy Everly or the editing in the first book. This book was a little better. I liked Aria more than Everly. Unlike Everly, she had a bit of a backbone. The editing still needs some serious work (Ex: "There's nothing talk about." And others similar.) Also, some parts just don't make sense. Vampires show up and the best dragon warrior decides to complain about his new mate being upset that she needs to stay in the house because they are protecting her from vampires.
I also think the author should read a bit about the atmosphere and how items only heat up upon fast re-entry due to friction, it's actually cold up there. I will probably not continue the series.

Thrilling!

Aria has a special ability, she can heal with her singing, and she enjoys her simple life helping people and animals to heal. But when dangerous vampires kidnap her for her Dragon Soul blood, her whole life will change. Saved by Dax, a sexy but crude dragon shifter, she must reevaluate her life. Dax is crazy about Aria, and believes her to be his true mate, but can he control his impulses and show her his gentle side? Will Aria build a life with Dax and his fellow alien dragon shifters, or will she choose to go back to her quiet life in the shadows. Will the vampires leave the dragons be, or will they bring danger to them all?

Book two in the hot as hell sexy alien dragon shifter series. You could read this out of order but you will enjoy the series if read in order. He’s usually the funny sweet dragon but once he saw her his dragon hasn’t stop clawing at him to take her. She is a sweet young woman who enjoys her job at the old folks home. She has a secret that may mean her end. The series is dragons protecting humans and certain special humans against vampires. They aren’t your vampires who just try to live, no they are the suck you dry type. So there is a lot of action, lots of romance and groveling by a certain dragon and a few heated scenes.

I'm absolutely loving this series. Even though I enjoyed this fast paced story, jammed pack with plenty of suspense, intrigue, and of course steamy romance. But I have to say that Aria was working my last nerve with all her complaining and indecisiveness. Poor Dax was trying his hardest to win her over but she was being so difficult. I'm just glad that she finally got a clue and they got the HEA they deserve. Overall a enjoyable and entertaining read looking forward to reading the next book in the series. I voluntarily read and review this ARC no monetary compensation was received the opinions I have expressed are my own.

Great series.

Action packed shifter romance mixed with a powerful struggle between ancient races. After their own planet was destroyed, a group of Alien Dragons have awoken, with the threat of Vampires taking over earth. The Dragon's aim is to protect the planet they've landed on.

Dax takes protecting very personal when he sees a video clip of a young woman being captured by the Vampires. There's an instant force pulling them together. Dax has a strange feeling this is Something he can't fight..

These books are just to die for.

The second, but can easily be read as a stand alone, book in the new dragon series, where we are once again are provided with a truly engaging read. Characters and plot lines jump off the page to transport you into a land of make believe where you wish you could travel.

The plot line is simple, but wow do they pack a punch.

Pull up your chair and while away a couple of hours falling in love with the latest hero and heroine; Dax and Aria.

Sexy Dragon warrior, Dax meets his mate when him and his fellow dragon warrior rescued a Dragon Soul human from Vampires. Aria can heal people with her singing voice but never thought dragons and vampires existed. With danger surrounding them, Dax is determined to keep Aria safe and to romance her. Aria just wants her life to go back to normal. Will love find a way? Can the vampires be defeated? Great combination of romance and danger. No cliffhanger and Hea.

Here in book two, our four alien dragon shifters have located another Dragon Soul kidnapped by the vampires. Aria is a human that has always known she was different. Her gift is the ability to heal with her songs. Dax sees an image of her imprisoned at the vampire compound and his dragon goes ape crazy. The dragons have learned more about humans from Everly (Kian’s mate) since they woke up. I love Aria’s determination to help fight the vampires her way. I think it brought the whole family together, stronger now there are options. I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this book.

Okay

This is the 2nd book from Dragon Warrior. I would like to say it is good but so drawn out that I've quit and come back to it several times. Dad sees his mate at the Vampires mansion and goes nuts to get her back. She is upset first about being kidnapped by vampires then being rescued by mystical dragons. So she whine half the book. Which annoys the crap out of me. Dad keeps tripping over his tongue and making things worse. You get my rating now. It's not a bad book just not my cup of tea. I'll try the next one and hopefully it is better.

Vampire, dragons and fates oh my

Aria was special and the vampires wanted her magic to be invincible against the dragons so that they could feed on the dragon soul mates and humans without being destroyed by the dragons but Dax who was Aria mate wasn't given in to their threats or lies to leave the humans alone if the vampires could have Aria. The dragons would defeat the vampires with the help of Aria healing powers that no one knew she had was possible to keep the vampires from taking over the world.

A Hot Song

A very sweet book about a young lady with a healing song who is rescued from vampires by her dragon shifting fated mate. Dax is the impetuous dragon, always up for a good time. But his warrior compact skills came n full force when his fated mate, Aria is in danger. There is action, great characters and a story arc that keeps the same cast of characters while adding a new one each time a mate is found. I enjoyed the first two books and look forward to Cato and Adrien finding their mates.
