Dragon Isle (Collection: Books 1-3)

This boxset contains the first three books in the series, My Lord and Dragon; The Dragon Fighter; and A Dragon’s Bite. Dragon Isle is a haven for dragon shifters, who want somewhere safe and less chaotic, to be with their own kind, to be left alone if that’s what they want, or even a place to find love. The first book sees a down on her luck woman called Lindsey, who has no job, owes tons of the money and lives in a crappy flat. Her former flatmate tells her of a job opportunity on Dragon Isle, but she would have to become a slave to one of these dragon men and do everything he wants for a whole year. In return she will be paid half a million dollars. Is it worth it, to demean herself in such a manner? She won’t just be his slave, but his sex slave and he is into BDSM, something she has no experience of. He is one of only dragons to live outside of the main village on the secretive island and had to seek permission for Lindsey to be with him. His name is Kade, and she needs to remember he is a dragon, not a man! He wants to be in the role of a Dom, with her completely is Submissive, for the year he has hired her for. She has done a bit of reading about it, having only lightly touched on this sort of thing whilst studying to be a counsellor. Now she has to give up everything and stop worrying about every little thing that used to cause her distress, and so finds this quite freeing in the end. She is treated as a pet, who must kneel by his side and be fed from his hands, to do everything he tells her, without hesitation, or she will be punished. She must call him Master and has to sleep on the floor. She has a lot to learn, but most of it will be about what she herself really wants from life and what she needs. Definitely on the steamy side, with lots of sex scenes!

The second book, the characters are clan leader Emerson and human Janae, who is covering for her brother Liam, when he gets injured and can’t continue working at the docks where he would ferry dragons across to Dragon Isle from the mainland, it being too dangerous for dragons to fly across the water in the daylight. Emerson has worked hard to become the clan leader of the Lostfallen clan, but has ignored the call to mate. Soon, others may force his hands to mate, due to his position. He knows he is lonely for someone to be at his side in the quiet moments, but doesn’t like to be with anyone dragon woman or human more than once. Janae is also on her own, having pushed herself to study hard and spend her time at work, after the death of her youngest brother Connor and both of her parents. Something she blames herself for, having refused to go to the shops for her mum, as her recent ex-boyfriend worked there. Liam went in the opposite direction, getting drunk and acting out, until an older man Willie, took him under his wing, and he sorted himself out. He has lived on the arbour side of the mainland, ferrying dragons and being discreet about their business for over a decade now and is well trusted by the dragon community. When Janae gets called to take her first customer across, shortly after she arrived at Liam’s, it turns out to be Emerson and he is quite taken with her. She is quite fiery and definitely not submissive in her replies to him, which are short and to the point, not giving out any other information, no matter what he asks. He arranges for her to bring him lunch to the island every day, simply to get to know her better. She isn’t happy about this but he enjoys a good fight and looks forward to his time with her. A young woman who has forgotten to live her life for herself, and a young clan leader with loads of responsibility for others and a playboy lifestyle, who is finally realising that something meaningful is missing in his life.

The third book has a young woman, Ashley, caught out in the wilds and seeking cover from the storm in what she thought was an abandoned mansion, whilst out exploring the wild parts of Dragon Isle. When she finds it very dusty and no one answers her call, she presumes the owner are away, or it is abandoned and makes her way upstairs to find somewhere warm to get out of her wet clothes for the night. She finds a bedroom and snuggles in, then gets a voice coming out of the darkness, asking what she thinks she is doing! Dragon Theodore lives there with his dead sister’s son Stuart, who he is now responsible for. He is a bit of a loner and is happy to mostly work from home and look after Stuart, who he now thinks of as his own. He doesn’t mix much with the others on Dragon Isle and his home is miles out in the wilds at the edge of the island. Ashley came to the island to study dragons, but really to run away from a sad past, having lost her husband and her unborn child. She has worked at the only restaurant in the town with Victoria and her dragon husband, for the past three years, but feels like she needs a change. When she finds young Stuart, who has woken up scared, she goes to comfort him and wraps him up in her arms. When Theo sees this, he asks her to be his son’s nanny the next morning, especially when he comes down to see him laughing as she makes them pancakes, as well. She finds him extremely attractive, but he realises she is hiding something and tries to go slowly with her, even if her friends allow the relationship to be pushed a little!

A set of three steamy stories with dragons falling in love with female humans and their unexpected coming together tales. The first tale is the most explicit as Kade hires Lindsey as his sex slave for a year, and is a strict Dom, having to train her up in her role as a Submissive. The next two books are a bit less extreme and more of people who have kept out of mainstream normal lifestyles in their communities, whether from a past event that has made them feel unable to move forward, or having been too busy with work and other pressures on their time, finally meeting together and having instant attraction. Not fair that all the dragons can tell this by smell, but that doesn’t mean these relationships would definitely work. Both parties had to come together and find a common need, to then move forward with life and love. An interesting island, with lots more people looking for their mates and love, whilst trying to keep their presence secret from most humans, and keeping relations between humans and dragons as civil as possible. Three tales down and another two more trilogies to follow. I don’t normally read erotica, but this was not overly erotic, steamy in parts yes, but still more to do with the types of characters these dragons are portrayed as. This is a fairly normal part of dragon life, both male and female, in these stories. I received an ARC copy of this boxset from BookSprout and I have freely given my own opinion of the books above.

Great set of three love stories of a dragon finding the human woman meant to be his.

At first I was turned off by this set because the first story had a strong BDSM theme with the woman being treated as his slave. He wasn’t really going out and hurting seriously or humiliating her but he had all control. This made me feel slightly uncomfortable. The other two stories had dominant dragons with their mate but most of the BDSM was not there. I liked the second and third books much better. I do enjoy the world of Dragon Isle and can’t wait to read other books.

This is the first of three book collections. This included My Lord Dragon, Dragon Fighter, and A Dragon’s Bite. Three stories and each is different not just a cookie cutter pattern for a story. The characters were well written and the stories were all good and kept my interest. This set of books is awesome. We have someone who needs money so becomes the slave for a dragon, the other we have a woman who becomes a nanny to a dragon child. We also have a little girl who is a trouble maker who meets a dragon. Great collection and each story is a quick read.

The Dragon Isle series begins….

This box set contains the first three book in the Dragon Isle series – My Lord and Dragon, The Dragon Fighter, and A Dragon’s Bite. I have already posted reviews for each book individually so I am not going to do that here. Instead I just wanted to share that these stories are each well written, fast-paced, interesting, has some drama/mystery and a nice amount of chemistry between the characters, who are likeable and nicely developed.

I received a copy of this book for my honest review. My opinions are all my own.

I received a complimentary review copy of the book and I am voluntarily leaving an honest review.
My Lord and Dragon:
Lindsey has some insecurities. She is second guessing herself and belittling herself. She has a lot to learn. A lot to forgive herself for. And a lot to look forward to in the future. A good story.
The Dragon Fighter:
This story is about two people who does not have joy in their lives. One is lonely, afraid to let people in and afraid to live. The other has fought all his life to be more. He finely has more now but he is lonely with no one to share it with. A very good story and a joy to read.
A Dragon’s Bite: OK! I have read most of these books and I know how different some of the Dragons can be. Theodore is not as bad as some of them. I think he is more tinder hearted. It is a good story. Ashley finely found a home.

This box set includes books 1-3 of the Dragon Isle series. This is a great series. I enjoyed reading books 1-3. Each is well written with great characters. The storyline throughout each book held your interest from beginning to end. A great series that I recommend reading.
