In Lure of the Dragon, Kai Llewellyn and his band of battle-hardened shapeshifters know the rules: Don’t trust a human, and never, ever fall in love with one. But Tessa is different. Her emerald eyes mirror the mysterious pendant she wears, and her flaming red hair makes Kai’s heart race. Is his inner dragon just greedy for a new kind of treasure, or is Tessa his destined mate?
In Rebel Dragon, Special Forces vet Connor Hoving’s whole future — and that of his brothers — depends on acing his new job as head of security at an exclusive seaside estate.

Natalie is absolutely, positively off-limits despite the smoldering desire they both feel.

What a great way to get an introduction into 3 wonderful series with this set. Lure of the Dragon starts off the yummy Kai, a wonderful woman on his doorstep, and a legacy. I loved this series because they were hot dragons, marshmallow men for their women, and a tight knit family group.
Rebel Dragon starts the next series off and is just as delectable. Connor is the leader of this group and it is a little more rag tagged and brotherhood. He can’t afford for any of them to screw up. And then there is fate. You can’t help but to be team Connor.
Fire Maidens of Paris starts the jaunt around the world. Forget Hawaii in the last two series, get packing and solve the mysteries of the shifters and the Fire Maidens starting with Paris. Natalie was so gentle and good natured. Tristan was chivalrous and ever present for her. I loved them both and couldn’t wait for the next city on the tour when the story ended.
This writer is one of my all time favorites and she will become one of yours too. Each good sized book is full of adventure,love, animals, shifters and strong women and of course their happy ever after mates. Guaranteed to leave a smile on your face.

Lure of the Dragon
More Than Meets the Eye
Great story. Miss Lowe’s new story of the Aloha Shifters I expect to be a hit with her readers. getting to know a group of shifters who were in the military together and seeing where life takes them at this point just never gets old.
In this book you’re introduced to Kai and Tessa. Kai being a dragon and a jacket of all trades. While Tessa is a personal chef who is being hunted by other dragons.
The story reads swiftly with nary a bump in the telling the characters are well-developed I’m not for sure what more you could ask for great job.
The Mating Bite and A Dragon’s Honeymoon just add more spice to the original story. Do forget to read these bonus additions.
Looking forward to the next book Lure of the Wolf.
Rebel Dragon
Second Nature
This book has more depth than any of the previous stories. I love it. The characters feel a little more complex with back stories I can’t wait to read about. The family dynamic is serious skewed which makes for a better story.
There is a misconception that takes the characters on a different path with it being more dangerous than previously thought by Jenna and Connor. These characters work so well together. Each has their own strength and weaknesses that are perceived differently by others and themselves. I love the fact that they grow and evolve throughout the story.
Can’t wait for the next book in this series.
Fire Maidens -Paris
Believe In us
The start of another series by one of my must read authors.
Coming to Paris has always been a dream for Natalie since she was younger but she imagine how she was going to get there.
Tristan has lived in many places but Paris has always been his favorite so once he strikes out from his parents it’s where chooses to reside.
The story has a slower build up that some readers may not care for but my recommendation is to power through it and you will get an intriguing and we’ll written affair.
I review books so that others can see that a book may be worth reading.
Book 1 is Lure of the Dragon
Tessa’s nightmare started one night when she was hired to to cook for a rich stranger who turned out to be an evil shifter bent on forcing her to be his mate. She was saved by Ella a women who lives next door to her. Ella sent her to a group of shifters in Maui for thier protection.
What she found out was there was a dangerous shifter world she never knew about and now she is in the middle of it.
OMG this was one fantastic storyline full of action and mystery. The characters are truly amazing and I honestly connected to them fast! This is also the first book in the series (don’t worry it’s a full story and not a chiffhanger) I can’t wait for the next book to come out. I am hooked.
Book 2
Is Rebel Dragon
OMG Anna lowe has a new series and if the rest are as good as this one wow!
Jenna is the sister of Jody who is mated to Cruz from the last series and they are both tiger shifters. But Jenna is a human and mermaid mix, she also has a stalker out to get her so she runs to Maui for help.
Connor and his team are ex special forces who want to make a new lifeature for themselves. He is also a dragon shifter who has come to work security at Koa Point the same place Jenna ran to for safety. Destiny is at work!
I LOVE this story! Great characters their so easy to connect to. Awesome action, drama, mystery, intrigue, suspense, twist, turns and soooooo much more. It’s amazing. I couldn’t put it down! The audio version is fantastic too kelsey Osborne makes the story spring to life it was so much fun to hear it.
Book 3
Fire maidens : Paris
Natlie Brewer had dreams of going to Paris so she did. Everything changed when a vampire attacked . Who knew those things were real well she didn’t. She didn’t even know she had a heritage in her bloodline that was attracting them to her.
Gargoyles, vampires, and dragons oh my!
Tristan Chevalier’s mission is to prove himself to the Guardians of Paris. Protect the city by watching the vampires and reporting on them but when he see natalie in trouble he can’t just sit watch and report. Plus his Dragon has other plans for the little human that he is on board with.
Love the action, drama, mystery, betrayal, spice, and so much more this story has going on in it. The characters are fantastic! The story really pulls you in fast and keeps you interested. I really enjoyed reading this one and can’t wait for the next story to come out about London and the next fire maiden.
Great set don’t miss it . I love the action and spice in all these books!

If you’ve never read an Anna Lowe book, this is a great place to start. I envy you the many hours of enjoyment ahead of you!
A Tantalizing Starter From Brilliant Series!!
Lure of the Dragon: **********************************************************
Be still my heart for this new Aloha Shifters series. We meet them all, but our main character is Kai who is a dragon shifter. Private Chef Tessa just found out there are such things as dragon shifters when one client reveals his true nature and promises to mate her. (Yikes!) Rescued by her neighbor who is also a shifter, Tessa flees to Maui asking for protection from the team at Koa Point.
Anna Lowe evokes more “feeling” in her stories than 99% of the authors I read. We immediately relate to each member of the team, feel Tessa’s confusion, and become totally engrossed in the story. It doesn’t hurt that I lived a few years in Hawaii as a kid and as she describes the tropical setting it brings back fond memories.
The story is full of twists, danger, attraction and quite the thrill ride!! It delights me to see there are plans for at least four more stories in this series!! I really need additional stars to award for this one.
Rebel Dragon: **********************************************************
Surfer Jenna has come to Maui to visit her sister and escape a stalker. At Koa Point she finds out the true nature of her sister and the guys on the security team around her. Thrown for a loop she walks along the ocean where she has always felt comfortable.
Conner Hoving is a dragon-shifter who with his team is moving next door to Koa Point at Koakea Plantation. With a father who was a myriad shifter meaning each offspring could be any animal – he was not raised in the protocol of the dragon realm. When these two meet, Conner’s dragon gets very interested and very protective.
Jenna is struggling with the fact her sister turns into an eight-foot tiger, the fact she has a little something extra herself and that vampires really exist.
A brilliant island adventure with dragons, tigers and bears….not to mention a feisty kitten and scintillating romance of the fated mate variety. Block off your calendar as you will not be able to put this one down!!
Fire Maidens: Paris **********************************************************
No Matter the Location; These Shifter Stories are amazing – Taking Europe by Storm!!
Tristan is a dragon-shifter Guardian working to keep the vampires of Paris in check. When they attack a human Natalie, Tristan is there to save her. His dragon is impressed. Natalie is not unaffected:
“It was ridiculous, reacting to a near-stranger that way. In three years of dating a guy named Dean in Philly, she’d never gotten as excited as she got around Mr. Tall, Dark, and distinctly Parisian.”
Can she be the “mythical” Fire Maiden who can help save Paris? Imagine not only finding paranormals exist, but you may be one….
Intricate story of honor, duty, jealousy, magic and love. A lovely cat Bijou (jewel) is an additional feature which adds to the depth and believability of this highly entertaining read.
It’s awesome that the first books of 3 great series are all together in this set! I’ve loved all of these series!
Here’s my reviews for each book!
Lure of the Dragon –
I love Anna Lowe’s books about wolves and I love dragon shifters, so I knew I’d probably love this one, and I was right! Another awesome book! Tessa is on the run from a shifter that was trying to kidnap her; this shifter business is all new to Tessa, so she isn’t quite sure what to make of it, so on the advice of a friend, she finds herself in Maui looking for some help from some other shifters, who are supposedly friendlier. Tessa is a tough chick! She’s having a lot of crazy thrown at her, and she is handling it very well. Among the various shifters she meets up with, there is Kai, and there is something about him that draws Tessa in, but she doesn’t know if she can trust him. Let me tell you, these two create some sparks! Some hot moments between these two! Kai and Tessa’s romance is also sweet, and I loved their connection. I loved that we get dual POV’s, and I loved all the dragon shifter traits! Love me some fire breathing, high flying, gold/jewel loving dragons! This book is a standalone, but it seems there is a connecting storyline that is going to be going on throughout the series, which I totally love! I’m really looking forward to getting the stories from the rest of the guys! I listened to the audiobook version of Lure of the Dragon, and the narrator did an excellent job! Loved this new series from Anna Lowe, and I’m super excited for more!!
Rebel Dragon –
This is a spin-off series from my favorite series by Anna Lowe so far, The Aloha Shifters. This story features characters from those books, so for me this series is like a continuation of that series. In Rebel Dragon, there are POV chapters from each of the 2 main characters, Connor and Jenna. I love getting POV from both main characters! It’s great to see each of their perspectives.
I enjoyed the action in Rebel Dragon, and I do like that magical items are involved in the storyline. I do wish that the storyline was more different than the previous Aloha series, but I still enjoy that type of storyline. This story moved a little slow for me, and I didn’t quite feel the connection with the characters that I had with most of Anna Lowe’s characters. I’m not loving the other characters yet, but I’m still looking forward to their books, and seeing them develop. Right now, it seems like they are all basic, but I know Anna Lowe will have some great stories for all the characters. I liked both Connor and Jenna, and they are sweet together, but I didn’t quite feel the depth of love most of the other mate pairings have felt. Connor and Jenna are more of a fun and light-hearted mate pairing, which isn’t a bad thing, I just love a bit more Alphaness. They do have some steam though! I was disappointed in Jenna with how much she overreacted with her sister’s husband, but I appreciated her standing up for herself other times. She’s a tough cookie. I always love dragon shifters! I’m on the fence about part mermaids, but it was still a fun scenario. Some under the sea adventures! Overall, I really enjoyed Rebel Dragon, and it was fun and entertaining! I’m interested to see where this series goes!
Fire Maidens: Paris
Exciting new series! Loved the premise with the whole fire maiden scenario and that the books in the series will take place in different European cities. Here’s hoping for cities in Ireland and Scotland! This one is in Paris, and it was fun to touch on some of Paris’ attractions. Natalie is surprised to learn that supernatural entities exist; vampires, shifters, etc., but she’s even more surprised to learn that she may have more to do with that world than she anticipated. She ends up meeting Tristan; a dragon shifter, who helps protect and support Natalie. Unfortunately, old fashioned ideals get in the way of their connection. Also, an unfortunate, stuck-up supernatural gets in the way as well. The vampires aren’t exactly making things easy for Natalie as well, so she’s dealing with a whole lot. I love the whole mate connection, and Tristan and Natalie are really sweet together. I do wish Natalie felt a bit more for Tristan or that what she feeling came across better, but overall, they have good chemistry and definitely some heat between them. Entertaining adventure for Natalie and Tristan! I’m really excited to read the next book!
LURE OF THE DRAGON-This is a fabulous story of the Aloha Shifters and it is very exciting, suspenseful and romantic Tessa Byrne is on the run from a man who can turn his hands into claws and sharp fangs comes from his mouth and he says she is to be his mate all she wanted to do would be to cook for her clients she is a private Chef but what she didn’t do was check out this client and ended up being locked in his closet because he was interrupted in attacking her she has a friend who was a fox shifter who came and helped her get away Ella sent her to Hawaii to her friends for her safety. She is standing outside the gate at Koa Point when a man pulls up and ask if she needs help she was unsure but she felt safe with him his name was Kai and when they arrived at what looked like a meeting place with open sides she was scared when she saw the guys standing inside when she and Kai came in. This is the beginning of their story. Great Book, I hope the other books in the series are just as good.
REBEL DRAGON-This is another great series.The beginning is awesome with Jenna running away from a stalker and Connor running to a new beginning as security for KoaKea the property next to Koa pointe. Jenna was everything he wanted and he wanted to make sure she was safe from whomever was making her frightened. But she would not tell him on the plane and when they landed she met her sister, they were both surprise to find that they were living so close together. Jenna she and Connor felt something special for each other her father always told her that it happened at first sight. They could not keep their hands off each other. Jenna’s sister Jody is about to blow her sisters mind since she is not aware that their are other species in the world good and bad. Connor and Jenna keep us on the edge of the seat since this romantic suspense is well worth the read.
FIRE MAIDENS: PARIS-Natalie moves to Paris becasuse she has always wanted to move their and she thought she would be coming with her fiance’. But when she sees this big fine man come in to the soup kitchen she helps out at drives her crazy because she feels that he should be hers but they never speak just look at each other, then one day a man comes in and he keeps looking at her making her nervous and Tristan comes in she didn’t know his name unti she heard someone call his name out. He is drawn to her and when he realizes their is a vampire in the kitchen he then helps Natalie get away and almost dies in the process. Tristan is a guardian for the city of Paris and his boss has told him not to engage the shifters that they are protecting the humans from but he had no choice he would not let the vampires steal Natalie. This is a fabulous story line and the characters are very intriguing
I Purchased this book. I am providing an honest review.
This is an awesome box set! This provides the first book in 3 different amazing series!
Lure of the Dragon is the beginning of the Aloha Shifters: Jewels of the Heart series. In an effort to escape a really bad situation, Tessa ends up with Kai and his group of shifters. The fun thing about all the characters in this group is that they’re different shifters, they’re not all dragons. Kai’s brother Silas (also a dragon) seems to be the leader of this group. Tessa is being chased by another dragon (the one she escaped from) and Kai’s there to help her. From the moment Kai met Tessa, his dragon was saying she was their mate. Unfortunately, Kai knew that Tessa was human and a dragon’s bite is too much for a human as evidenced by his mom. This is a great read to watch how Kai battles not only the dragons to save Tessa but also to watch their love unfold.
Rebel Dragon – Aloha Shifters: Pearls of Desire is a new series and Rebel Dragon is the first book in the series.
This group is located in Hawaii and has joined the group of shifters that were written about in the Lure of the Dragon, Aloha Shifters: Jewels of the Heart series. Connor and his brothers have come to Hawaii to start over. He feels like it’s one of his last chances to prove himself even though he was special forces. While flying to Maui, he meets Jenna, a shy and frightened woman on his flight. Jenna is on her way to meet her sister and escape from what she things may be a crazed vampire stalker. She’s hoping to get away but keeps watching over her shoulder fearing she’ll never be safe. Connor promises to protect her and she falls asleep on the flight. By the time, the plane lands, they feel a strange connection but part ways with no way of contacting each other. As luck would have it Jenna is sisters with Jody who is mated to Cruz (who’s part of the shifters already set up on Maui and the group that Connor is going to join).
They meet the next day and the pull keeps getting stronger. But Jenna’s not telling everyone the truth about her stalker and Connor is trying not to mess up this new job and wants to prove himself as the alpha and take over this new group of shifters. This begins the fun part of the book where you get to see Jenna and Connor and their coming together. Such a great read and an epic battle! Can’t wait to read more about this new clan, especially Cynthia and Dell.
Fire Maidens: Paris – This is book one in the Billionaires and Bodyguard Series. This is series is set throughout Europe with each country looking for a “fire Maiden” who will reside in their country and bring calm to their country. Although each time, the fire maiden doesn’t even realize that she’s a shifter.
Enter Natalie, a human who has left her country to see Paris, but she keeps having two very different dreams involving shifters (vampires and dragons). That’s where dragonshifter, Tristan comes in. Natalie doesn’t want to believe the tales that Tristan is telling her but she’s grateful for him saving her. Can she trust him? This is a great start to another wonderful series by Anne Lowe!
Wow! Dragon Passions is the perfect name for this collection of Hot Dragon Shifter stories, Anna Lowe does it again with these. A must read for anyone who loves dragons, romance, and hot shifters!
What a great set of stories! Each have amazing characters and storylines. They’re told as only this author can. Get your copy and curl up in your favorite place and enjoy!
I just love Anna’s writing style. I was totally drawn into this world and the mythology is so intriguing. A beautiful setting and characters that worm their way into your heart have made these books fun thrill ride reads.
In Lure of the Dragon these characters draw you in, Tessa is successful, comfortable in her own skin. She has a plan for her life, but she also has secrets in her past even she doesn’t know. Kai and his fellow veterans have baggage from their service and growing up. They’re hanging together, in a very cool place, supporting each other. Until Tessa comes crashing into their lives with an evil dragon after her, one they know oh so well. This story moves so fast it’s over before you want it to be, but it’s a fun ride.
Sometimes it takes a Rebel to get the job done. In Rebel Dragon Jenna is strong and carefree even when she’s afraid of the stalker texting her. Connor didn’t have the best upbringing, though his single mom tried. Then he went a little wild in his service days. Now he’s buckling down and getting serious. Maybe too cautious? This fast paced tale has action, suspense, and some surprises I didn’t see coming, along with a sexy fated romance.
Fire Maidens Paris is a fated mate story on steroids sweeping me away to Paris and a new “world” that is so intriguing that I felt an immediate emotional connection with these characters. Natalie is just a normal American girl taking charge of her life and fulfilling a dream of living in Paris. Tristan is a war veteran coming back to civilian life as a protector for the mysterious Guardians. When they meet it is destiny and it is magic. But the overarching plot of the Fire Maidens also draws you in and it is hopeful even if they have to fight to protect humanity. Loved this action packed, suspenseful romance.
Each story is the first of three different series. Interesting, entertaining and full of action, adventure, suspense and romance.
Lure of the Dragon
For Tessa Byrne working as a private chef had become something dangerous. Almost killed and now chased by a dragon was a nightmare. Following her friend advise, she went after the men that could help her but, was she ready for more shapeshifters, trust them and the truth? Kai Llewellyn and his friends-associates had endured rough times. When he first met Tessa his dragon recognized her but, was Kai willing to accept the truth? He had to be ready to face former enemies and protect Tessa with his life. Different shifters with different traits and personalities, together and loyal to the utmost, were there to help Tessa discover the mystery behind her hunt. This first story presents the four Aloha shifters in the setting of Hawaii with what seems to be intriguing past. Interesting, entertaining with romance, hot sex, personality clashes, strong emotions, the villains always lurking in the dark and ready to attack, violence and brotherhood. Liked the detailed description, the mystery about the stones and the intriguing characters that stimulate my imagination.
Rebel Dragon
A nobody out of place, unworthy dragon, that’s how Connor Hoving had been feeling all his life. If only he had a chance to prove himself in the shifter world and rise to a position he deserved. Could Destiny and Fate join their forces to look after Connor and bring him what he needed most? Jenna was afraid, watching around all the time, but what was the threat she was hiding from? Meeting Connor seemed to be an answer to her needs, in more than one way. Intriguing and suspenseful story with characters full of mystery. Liked the adventure, the magic, the shifters, the romance and the well-crafted plot development that kept me enjoying the characters different dramas. Good beginning to the new series with an interesting mythological character that I liked and kept my attention to the details.
Fire Maidens Paris
Natalie discovered that her dreams had some truth behind. Coveted by dragons, vampires and gargoyles, she was an important piece in a game of power. Dragon shifter Tristan had not had a fair hand in his life but when he met Natalie he was struggling with his feelings and what was his duty. Natalie wasn’t sure she had enough power to make a difference but what she really knew was that Tristan was the one for her. Liked Natalie’s strong, brave, smart and decided character. She knew how to play hard and in her own terms. As a secondary character Liam was intriguing. Suspense, action, violence, betrayal, funny pet, romance and passion. Interesting and entertaining this first book of a series that promises a lot of action and intrigue.
This is a really good opportunity to get three juicy steamy stories of hot, hunky dragons who melt your panties off(if you’re wearing any) or soaked. I’ve read all three and let me tell ya I could not get enough of them. I don’t even think I could tell you if I have a favorite because they all made me swoon. This is a a little insight of what I thought of the books:
LURE OF THE DRAGON
Tessa never knew the world of shifters existed until she thrown into by Damien Morgan. A real estate mongrel who not only wanted her as his personal chef but his breeding dragon baby momma…lol…his mate..see Tessa had a special sumthin sumthin a few woman had that dragons needed to keep breeding dragons. Tessa was a personal chef who one day hoped to write her own cookbooks, have a loving family and definitely not be bossed around. So when she was thrown into this new world by Damien she was scared and she didnt know who she could really trust. Her chance came when she was given the second chance by and Ella a fox shifter who helped her escaped and to her to go Koa Point Estate. “You have to trust them. No one else can protect you from that monster.”
So there she stood in Maui in front of the Estate. contemplating whether to go to a hotel or trust these other shifters with her life or go to a hotel. Then a car comes up to the gate and a man steps out of a car and hubba hubba he is gorgeous. He ask if I’m coming or going. We stare. Or maybe I’m just staring. I adk him his name then he ask me mine for some reason I just blurt it outand thrn tell him why I’m here. He rushes me in the car.
Ella had briefed me on the five elite forces. So it was no wonder. I just had to figured out who was whom. Silas was the leader scary, dragron. But the one behind her, he would protect me. No one touches her. I felt hmmmm..what’s the word I’m looking for..I get to you when I find it…any who, Boone was funny, he was definitely the wolf. Hunter, damn! he was the bear. Cruz , he was stand-offish he was the tiger. Oh snap! That means, Kai was the other DRAGRON. But it was something about him that drew me to him. I was scared but not afraid, I was warm, but still felt cold like I was missing something from him.I couldn’t place what it was at that moment. Until it was gone. I was gone.
Of course, I got stuck cooking dinner. Which I didn’t mind doing. Gave me a chance to show them my culinary skills. Kai and I had some alone time at a Farmer’s market. I’m gonna miss this. Tessa thought. Kai loved the way she was in her element. This is his mate. He will claim her his dagron said regardless what the part of Kai though. There’s something different about her. And something about her pendant around her neck. We will talk to her after dinner. After they walked back to the guest cottage. She went to bed and he went for a fly just to encounter three scouts saying they wanted his treasure. They wanted Tessa. Kai fought them off and killed two. Kai made it back to in enough time to colapse in front of Tessa in dragron form telling her to go get Silas. Would their be HEA? DRAGON BABIES, get the book?
REBEL DRAGON
Jenna had to come into the world of shifters quickly especially when she thought she was neutralized by a vampire. She needed to get away and feel safe and what better than your very own Dragon guardian by your side. Connor knew he needed to take his new job seriously for his family’s said but it was something about the girl in the seat next to him on the plane that stirred up his beast. This was a rollercoaster of affair but you had to read it to believe it and believe me it’s a heart stopper. I loved every minute of it. To be sitting on your sister’s couch and she then into this tiger and then told everyone on this estate is a shifter and your mind wonders. I can’t explain the book without telling the story I can only tell you please get this book. CANNOT wait for Tim’s book. Did I mention she was time enough for a sea Dragon and she whooped that tail….
FIRE MAIDEN’S:PARIS
Modern day telling of Claudine d’Islay and Breselan.
Natalie came to Paris not become a damsel in distress or a royal princess. She had always dreamt of being amongst the parisians and doing community service. She thrives off of helping people, volunteering in soup kitchens served that purpose and gave her a sense of belonging.
Tristan worked for the Guardian of Paris. He was to track down rogue vampires. His latest one, Olivier, crept up at the soup kitchen he frequented because of a certain young lady.
Natalie felt deep in her soul and always listen to her instincts, so when she seen the man whom staired at her weirdly she wanted nothing to do with him but considering it was her job to serve the people she did what was tasked. After delivering him his tea he knicked her and her and licked his finger of the droplets of blood from his finger. TASTY!!! YUM!!! Tristan told hold of Nat’s hand and ran for her safety. She was safe for now or was she? It was 4 vamps against her and a stranger. A mighty fine stranger. One who saved me. I should not be lusting after. But damn, a girl can dream can’t she. When he gave her the way out to save her and he held off the vamps and then suddenly poof, it was one less. She did not understand what happen.
Nat feels guilty for leaving the brave man whom finds out his name is Tristan in alley goes back to help. She finds him on the ground but alive. He convince her to take him to his place and then the next day he takes her to the Guardians for help. She doesn’t really feel safe with no one but Tristan at this point. Did I forget to mention his place is a penthouse and has this questionable cat name Bijou? You will see what I mean. I almost forgot Olivier said,”you think blood like that comes along everyday? Royal blood?” See the royal twist I threw in there?
Without going into the book because it’s so much. But sooo good. Just know that the characters in this book are insightful, some backstabber, self-sacrificing, dedicated, funny and loyal. This is one of the best suspenseful, mysterious story I’ve read in a long time. Not to mention best love story and when in France, let’s do what the French do, nibble on some banquette. What did you think I was gonna say something else? Get your minds out the gutter. Well, this half the story so you need to get the book.
In the beginning I mentioned this is the modern day tale of Claudine d’Islay and Breselan. I didn’t tell you the story. I need you to read and look in chapter 12. A beautiful story. I really feel like telling you the whole story but I need the author to get her credit. Anna has a way to capture you and keeps you there until the end wanting more.
See what I mean? They are like wow! And I didn’t tell you the entire the plots.
The first three books in three thrilling series by a great author.
You can never go wrong with this author and though I have all of her books I love having box sets for easy rereading.
LURE OF THE DRAGON BOOK ONE IN JEWELS OF THE HEART
A wonderful new entertaining series from one of my favourite authors.
This book introduces us to the beautiful islands of Hawaii, where five Special Forces Veteran shifters with mysterious pasts, who have bonded through the trials of combat have settled.
I loved the sound of Koa Point, the estate where they all live, how beautifully it is described. Having been to the islands recently it bought back beautiful memories, especially the farmers market.
I really enjoyed the jewel stone and legends aspect too, cannot wait to see how this all plays out.
Tessa was a strong character and apart from one silly, excusable mistake, was quite believable and entertaining with her actions.
We didn’t really get to know much about Kai and I hope we do learn more of him as this series continues whilst his brothers of the heart find their mates and much needed HEA’s. I did love his dragons character and how he kept snipping at Kai about Tessa being their mate.
Loved the little tie in with Twin Moon Ranch as well through Ella.
Who will be next, will Silas and Moira reunite and solve past hurts or will it be Grouchy Cruz, Wolfie Boone or rock solid Hunter. From the little teaser we are given Boone is the next to have his life changed for the better. I cannot wait.
REBEL DRAGON BOOK ONE IN PERALS OF DESIRE
Wonderful to be staying in Maui with a new set of shifters.
A great spin-off series following on from the wonderful Jewels of the Heart. This time we have the Pearls of Desire which have a sad history attached to them but that help out those with true love in their hearts.
Really liked how Ms Lowe brings the wonderful island of Maui straight into your senses. I can see, smell and feel the lushness of this beautiful island whilst reading.
To really get the best of this book I would suggest reading LURE OF THE TIGER first to get more knowledge about Jenna and her special blood.
In this new series we get some seriously tough alpha men, Connor, his brothers Tim (a bear shifter) and Chance (a wolf shifter) and their brother of the heart Dell (a lion shifter). If you want to know how three brothers are all different shifters you will have to read this story.
In this first story, our Alpha leader Connor is a dragon who is scared of water and is perfect for our mermaid blooded Jenna. He has not always been a good little soldier following orders blindly, unfortunately his brothers tended to follow him so any trouble found them too.
Working for Koa Point means a fresh start, a good steady job and a chance to make something of their lives. Living on Koakea Planation means a chance to set down roots. Connor cannot do anything to mess this up. Meeting and falling for Jenna on the plane to Maui could be one big mess up.
These men are also former special forces soldiers known to the men of Koa Point, who need a place to settle down and call home. The fact they will also be getting the one woman in the whole world who will complete and compliment them is an added component in making this a great series. Thrown into this mix living at Koakea Plantation is a mystery widowed woman, Cynthia, (a dragon shifter) and her adorable little boy Joey.
Jenna is fleeing to Koa Point and her sister Jody. The chance of working for Teddy Akoa making surf boards in one not to be missed but getting away from her stalker is what prompted this quick change of direction in her life.
Meeting the tough silent Connor on the plane and feeling safe in his presence gives Jenna the chance to sleep for the first time in weeks. Finding out he is living on the plantation next door to Koa Point gives them the chance to spend time together.
Love how this story flows and the surprise with Jenna’s stalker was good.
Cannot wait to read Cynthia’s story as well as the rest of the boys.
FIRE MAIDENS – PARIS
A nice new series from Ms Lowe that takes us to Paris where there is trouble brewing.
We will get other major European cities in this series needing and finding their Fire Maidens.
I loved the tie in off everything needing balance between the shifter and human worlds. Discord in the shifter world causes discord in the human world. To keep things balanced Fire Maidens are needed in the major European cities but unfortunately there have been none for hundreds of years.
Until Natalie, an American who has dreamed of Paris since she was a child. Finally deciding to live her dream instead of waiting, Natalie finds herself living and working in her dream city.
Not going to hash out the storyline as it is quite busy, so read and know what is happening for yourself
Natalie has a heart of gold and though she can be hot headed at times, she is a great Fire Maiden.
Tristan is the quintessential quiet, broody and strong alpha hero dragon shifter. He really doesn’t say much, his dragon is more verbose than he is.
The little mention of current events with the fire at the Notre Dame was really good and the whole story was so descriptive I felt like I was there.
I sometimes felt there was too much internal dialogue but overall this did not detract from my reading pleasure.
The next book is Liam and is based in London which I am looking forward too.
Lure of the Dragon
Wow! Just when you thought you’ve read the best of Anna Lowe, she comes out with yet another winner, that just might trump anything else out there! Tessa is on the run. She is running for her life, literally, from a beast she had no idea up until yesterday, even existed. And the things he said to her…make her shudder and want to be as far away from him as possible. What she thought would be a job as a personal chef to Morgan, a top notch real estate mongul, turned out to be her worst nightmare. With the help of her neighbor, Ella, a bit of insight about shifters in general, directions of where to go, along with descriptions of those who can help protect her, she’s made a beeline for Hawaii, and what she hopes, safety. The moment Kai scents a female at the gate, he knows she’s his mate, or at least his dragon knows. If only his human side would realize that. And when the rest of the band of “merry men” give him a hard time for having brought a “human” into their ranks, and his animal side takes offence, his human side starts to believe. Now all he has to do is make them understand….and convince his mate that she’s made for him.
With unknown enemies, and some known but unwanted ones, this book is packed full of intrigue, action, hot and steamy dragon sex, and a whole lot of questions, some of which are answered and others that I’m sure we will soon discover the answers to. Ms. Lowe has once again delivered beyond any expectations, a wonderful beginning to what I can only hope will be another awesome series. I also love the fact that there are ties to the Twin Moon Pack, because honestly, I don’t think I could ever get enough of them or those who surround them. Definitely looking forward to the next episode
Rebel Dragon
Oh my! I’m so in love with this spin-off from the Aloha Shifters-Jewels of the Heart, series. Once again, Anna Lowe has captured our hearts with her witty and complex characters, and their constant battle, seeking a life full of love and devoid of evil. In this, the first of the new series, we are introduced to a new “gang”, a mixed breed family thanks to some awesome family genes, who need new starts in life, and a greater need to prove themselves worthy of the status of “shifter”.
When Connor and his myriad of brothers gather together for a new lease on life outside of the special ops structure, they know they have lots to prove, but will they be able to settle down enough to stay out of trouble, or will trouble come find them as usual? Jenna is running for her life! After a freak photo caption of her in a local newspaper, she’s captured the unwanted attention of a stalker. The only question is whether or not he is human or of the paranormal type. Having recently discovered the origins of a second nature, she’s paranoid to go anywhere. It seems that he’s tracking her closely, leaving her petrified and unable to function. When a perfect opportunity comes up for her to join her sister Jody in Koa Point, Maui, she jumps at it, hoping that somehow, she will be able to loose her stalker. When Connor sits in the seat next to her on the plane, it would appear that destiny was once again showing her strength, because never has Jenna felt as safe as she did with Connor sitting there beside her, and Connor’s inner dragon is certain that Jenna’s their mate. Will they follow the route Destiny has set out for them, or will the odd twist and turn take them on a journey neither will ever forget?
An absolute wonder to read, this story will have you falling in love all over again.
Fire Maidens – Paris
It feels like forever since I’ve been able to read a new book from this unbelievably talented author, but the long, anticipated wait was definitely worth it! Wow! A new series, and what a way to start it off! You will absolutely fall in love with these characters, and the settings. Tristan and Natalie are made for each other, and the trouble that finds them as they find their way to each other only adds to the mystery. Never a dull moment, this tale will have your heart beating a bit faster, and swelling with the love. An absolute gem! So many new characters to meet and follow, I predict a new series that you definitely won’t want to miss. I know I don’t.
