Dolyn Kemmerly has found his destined mates. Unfortunately, they are more human than dragonblood. While his inner beast longs for them, his male stubbornness insists there have to be mates more worthy of his royal bloodline.Due to Ashley O’Connor’s traumatic past, only the painful slap of a Dom’s toys can help her find release. A celibate sub, she’s never ached for a man’s tender touch—until a … touch—until a mysterious stranger follows her into her Master’s club.
When Ashley suddenly lifts one of her hard limits, Giovanni DiLoreto, her sex-therapist recommended Dom, is finally allowed to touch the flesh he’s been lusting to caress. Doing so, however, earns him a bloody nose by a hot-as-fuck stranger. Master Vanni has never touched a dick in pleasure, but the sudden desire to dominate the newcomer—while Ashley watches—consumes him.
Dolyn’s ancestors might accept Vanni for the heart of the dragon inside him, but it will take Dolyn’s complete submission to Vanni as his alpha to help Ashley heal and unlock the destiny awaiting them all.

This is a must read! It’s my first time reading this author and it shall not be the last. I obviously didn’t read the first book in this series and I was able to follow this storyline without any problems. This is an awesome plot and it has lots of very steamy scenes. The characters are so well thought out and written. The female, Ashley, has a lot of baggage from her past that she is working to overcome. Then there are two main male characters, both being alphas/doms. The author takes us through this story via all three points of view which is very helpful. Loved this book!

I really enjoyed this second “Blood Born” story!! It’s a very intriguing and spicy story! The story and plot are well written and developed. Absolutely love the characters. This is a menage story that just sucks you in and holds you captive!
This is the second book in the Blood Born series. It can still be read without reading Drawn by Dragonblood, but you may get a bit more out of the story by reading it first.
OMG! Get a mug of ice water and a fan before you start reading this story! It has a good story line, good characters and a little bit of twists along the way! What do you get when you have two Alpha males and a damaged female? A perfect mate group.
Dolyn is a pure blood dragon shifter, one of only two remaining. After a failed 50 year relationship, he is looking forward to finding his mates. The female mate of his former partner has the gift to be able to tell him about his fated mates. He always felt he was too Alpha to submit to his old partner. He knows who the female is, so he watches over, aka stalking, for a week before he shows himself to her. He is very racists against humans, they are too below him.
Ashley was raped when she was 16 and can’t stand to be touched, sometimes even by herself. She has been in therapy for almost 10 years, and for the past six months, she has been seeing a sex therapist to help her. She has been having a feeling that someone is watching her on the way to work and on the way home. On this Friday, as she is killing time until her monthly appointment with the sex therapist, she sees a guy across the street just staring at her. She had just been thinking that she would like to see whoever it is that has been watching her. She never got any bad feelings about it, only that she felt safe. She likes what she see, but she can’t see his eyes. During her therapy session with Master Valli, she breaks down some of her walls and wants to be touched by him for the first time. When Dolyn sees that, he punches Valli in the nose and wrestles with him away from Ashley.
Valli is a licenced psychologist who works with people with sexual issues. He owns and runs a club for people in the lifestyle too. He has been working with Ashley for six months and has only been allowed to touch her elbow because of her issues. Since he has met her, he can’t be with anyone else. After meeting Dolyn and listening to the hubbub that he spouts about all of them being mates, even though he is the only pure blood and they only have a tiny amount of dragon blood, they are still mates and he is the Alpha. Valli is a Dom, he doesn’t submit.
Doyln and Ashley get together, then he leaves her. Ashley and Valli get together and Doyln come back, then leaves again.
You really should read this, but don’t forget about the fan, you will need it!

Destined by Dragonblood immediately captivated me. This is a great read with amazing characters. This is the second book in the series and can be read as a standalone with only a few minor spoilers for book 1. I love the plot and character development along with the world building. The interactions between Dolyn, Ashley, and Vanni are dynamic and contain lots of steam. This is a great fast pace read that allows are a wonderful escape.

Oh My Word, This Book has absolutely taken me over. I devoured the book in one hour, it’s so good. Lynn Burke have become one of my favorite authors, she has the ability to get you hooked on her stories and I love her for that, this is the second book in the series and it’s getting better and hotter, this SERIES IS A MUST READ, it has everything, emotions, angst, heat. Now if they could change the ratings from 5 to 20 stars that would be AWESOME because this series definitely deserves that
Ashley’s story is traumatic. I am so glad she reached out to get help. Dolyn had issues with a capital “I”. If he doesn’t get past them, he could lose what fate chose for him. Vanni is a Dom/Alpha that both Ashley and Dolyn ache for, but can he accept his attraction for Dolyn and embrase the Alpha within him to keep the three together. Just when I thought book 1 was hotter than hot, book 2 is even more hot. On to the next!
I could not put it down. I didn’t think Lynn Burke could top the sensuality from the first book, but she did and in style! This book is about Dolyn, a dragonblood shifter, one of the two left in the world. He is arrogant and views human as an inferior race. Yet, his destined mates are none other than the tempting humans, Ashely and Vanni. Ashley is a distraught young lady and a rape survivor who is working on overcoming her traumas. Vanni is a Dom, and he aids Ashley during monthly sessions in dealing with her sexual fears/inhibitions. While Dolyn’s attraction to his mates is undeniable, he fights the pull he has towards them, specially Vanni. As it turns out not only is Dolyn struggling with the inferior race issue but also with his dominance. He believes as the superior race, he should be the one calling all the shots. But Vanni, a Dom through and through, is determined to make Dolyn submit. It is a fight between fated mates to deny what is obvious; a destiny set in motion beyond their control.
I absolutely love how Lynn Burke threw the formula right into the spinner and set us up with a twisted version of the Alpha, Beta, Female trio. The heat between Ashley and Dolyn was wonderfully developed, with lots of love and trust. The fire between the males was exquisitely drawn out, making a climatic bonding scene. I cannot wait to sink my teeth into the next book! Lynn Burke
Decent shifter book with three characters that are fated mates, but have to re-evaluate what they believe about themselves. Dolyn is a dragon shifter that believes he needs to be the alpha and is racist and unwilling to accept humans as his mates. Ashley suffered abuse when she was younger and needs to get past it. Finally, there is Vanni, who cannot understand his attaction to another male. The book does contain a lot of gratuitous sex, but the story itself is good.
