Scorched (Rulers of the Sky Book 1)

SUMMARY
Marcus is a Drakkon as ancient as the stars, stronger than a mountain, and the last of his kind. Men now rule the earth. The time of the Drakkon is over thanks to the legendary Phoenix Amber and the Council of Elders who use its power to transform Drakkon into humans. When the Council discovers he may be hiding a treasure worth more than any dragon horde, they will stop at nothing to have it and transform him against his will. 

Being human is worse than anything Marcus could have imagined. His brilliant cerulean scales are gone, replaced with paltry skin he is sure could not even stop a bird if one flew into him. But worse than imprisonment in a male body are the awakenings of unfamiliar human desires that are nothing like the animal urges that were so easily satisfied as a Drakkon— emotions like loneliness that make him seek out companionship with a woman who, unfortunately for him, happens to be a sweetly-scented virgin. 

Samantha Montgomery isn’t about to go to bed with a man who believes he used to be a reptile, especially one whose smoldering smiles make her think of being consumed alive by fire, and loving it. A romance writer and product of the New York State foster care system, Sam just wants some normalcy in her life. She’ll never get it with Marcus. Should it matter that his wickedly passionate touch tempts her to yield all, even if all he wants is her virtue? He is everything she doesn’t want in a man. Fear of commitment is one thing, not loving anyone or anything for ten centuries is another. But he won’t leave her castle. He’s arrogant, proud, and a bit delusional as to his abilities, but despite all his infuriating ways, including reading her mind and ceaselessly trying to convince her that the knights she writes about were useless beings clad in metal, he works his way into her life by fixing what’s broken; from the stone wall outside her battle-beaten castle to the wall around her heart. 

When Marcus discovers the treasure that prompted his transformation, he must make a choice. Give up his human heart and save the Drakkon race, or surrender his heart to love and remain a man forever. 

REVIEW
Drakkons Rule!

Yeah I am so happy I get to end 2016 with a wonderful book! I have been so disappointed the last month and have even resorted in re-reading my books! But....I found this little gem and I couldn't be happier!

Marcus is so outstanding! He is all man/drakkon! His innocence about being human, yet arrogant at the same time warms your heart. His character seems so genuine. He is also sexy as hell! I love how he reads romantic stories to try and learn how to win Sam!

Sam is a great heroine. She has all the strength of the hero and didn't make me want to kill her! She stands her ground and knows how to put her man into his place.

The story has a great plot it has lots of tuns and twists. All the characters have depth and wonderful storylines. It is set up to be a great series and I want to visit that world again!

Great great read!
