Kiss of Fire (Dragonfire Series #1)

Not Bad

From the last comment this book was given I had to think about wasting money on this book. But then another comment said that it gets better through out the series so I bought the book expecting the worst. In fact it wasn't at all to bad. The romance scenes weren't that....well described as other books may have it but I liked the book because of all the action that happened and I also liked the playfulness of the book. It's a fast pacing book and i enjoied the scenes with the dragons and the different points of views it had....even though it was a little hard to tell when it did change views but you could figure it out. It was a good book but if you dont like it the series gets better.

Disappointing...

The idea for Dragon shape-shifters is what originally caught my interest, but sadly it didn't live up to my expectations. The writing was so poor that I could more easily believe that dragons are real than some of the dialog that was going on. Furthermore, if a romance isn't going to be written well, the least it could have is some great...ahem...erotic scenes, but it lacked there too. Overall, if you want a great paranormal romance read, try "Full Moon Rising" by Keri Arthur and "Blue Moon" by Lori Handeland - they were much better!

The first Dragonfire romantic fantasy is a wonderful tale

Were-dragon Quinn Tyrrell prefers to be by himself forging incredible objects rather than be part of the pack of shapeshifting dragons. He simply does not trust his Pyr peers. When he finds his human soulmate is Sara Keegan, he is euphoric until he realizes they are the key players in a prophecy that could leave them dead. ----------- Quinn in his dragon persona saves Sara from a killer although she wonders who drugged her as dragons are not real. To her surprise she is attracted to Quinn and grateful that he came to her rescue. However she does not believe his revalatione that she is his life mate even if their touch results in sparks and will birth the next dragon-smith with him. When Slayers attack them, the former accountant confronts Quinn demanding he explain the bottom line to her. He informs her that besides mating, they are the firestorm if they live long enough to survive, they need the Pyr, but he distrusts his peers.-------- The first Dragonfire romantic fantasy is a wonderful tale due to the lead female whose orderly world of numbers no longer exists Sara¿s mental adjustment to all she learns makes the paranormal elements including specie dragon-shifter seem genuine. The story line is fast-paced and filed with action as Quinn knows he can no longer be the lone ranger of dragons and Sarah wonders how she went from debits and credits to fighting Slayers and falling in love with a dragon. KISS OF FIRE is an excellent thriller with more to come.------ Harriet Klausner

a very good read

This book was very good, I loved the dragons and i cant wait to read the other books in this series.

question?

how old is sara?

Good first instalment

I really like this series, you should check it out.

Neutral

I love dragons! And when I found a paranormal romance that included them I had to get it! However, it was not as good as I had hoped. It seemed to lack something, and was on the verge of being just plain boring. :(

OK First Book in the Series

This is about the Pyr, a group of dragons that tries to protect humans and themselves from the Slayers, turn dragons that want to rid the planet of Pyr and humans. The final battle is on it's way and the first of three eclipses which are going to foretell firestorms, mating urges for the Pyr, and help turn the tides of the battle for the best. This time the firestorm has chosen Quinn, the smith. The only problem with that his is has been on his own for years and no one knows where he is at or what side he is on.

Sara is an ex accountant that just lost her parents and close aunt. She decided it was time to settle in one place and chose to take care of the bookstore her aunt left to her. Once she meets Quinn after an attempted mugging/murder, she is drawn to him. This meeting and the prophecy of the joining of the Smith and Seer keep pushing the two together.

But the Slayers have their own advantage. They have kidnapped a key player to the story to be one step ahead of the Pyr. They also have Ambrose, the slayer that first raised Quinn when he was young but was not as fatherly as he appeared.

There is great potential to this story. But you can tell it is the first book in that series because the story line is still rough. Quinn does get old with the tarnished hero thing, it was a bit extreme for me. But I will admit that I read the third book first and wanted to catch up with everything before hand. Definitely stick with it, the series get a lot better.

A MUST READ!!!

I thought to my self when i picked up "KISS OF FIRE" dragon shape shifter's in a romance novel thats a fun idea.And i read it in a day and a half (i have kids) I just couldn't put it down.I'm soo... glad i have two more books to read,the characters are so much fun and thrilling and don't get me started on the romance "yummy". You must buy all three,Kiss of fire, Kiss of fury and Kiss of fate. Once you start you can't stop.Deborah Cooke is a great author!

Amazing!!!

This book was able to keep my attention from the very begining all the way to the very end. I loved the relationship between Sara and Quinn, it shows that destiny doesnt determine everything we do,it just points us in the right direction. I would definetley reccommend this book to anyone.

Great read!

Action throughout. Holds your attention.

Great Start to the Series!!!

When logic-minded accountant, Sara Keegan, inherits her aunt¿s new age bookstore, Sara leaves her steady job and constant travel behind, hoping to settle down into a more conventional life. To put down roots. But what transpires after meeting sexy, mysterious Quinn is anything but ordinary. There¿s no room for logic as Sara opens her mind and heart to the magic of the man and his extraordinary legacy, as well as to her own psychic abilities..... Quinn Tyrrell is the Smith who forges exquisite objects from metal and fire. He also happens to be one of the Pyr, an ancient species of shape-shifting dragon warriors who command the four elements and stand guard over earth¿s treasures, which includes humans. When Quinn senses that his prophesied firestorm has arrived, he seeks out Sara Keegan, his destined human mate, in order to beget an heir and ensure that his line of Smiths continues. When Sara and Quinn touch for the first time, sparks fly, literally, and their passion ignites. Unfortunately, they¿re also fighting for their lives..... Quinn and Sara find themselves at the center of a vicious battle between the good Pyr and a murderous group of dragons called the Slayers, who aside from wanting to keep Quinn and Sara ¿ the Smith and the Seer -- from realizing their firestorm, want to eradicate humans from the planet. Quinn, a self-proclaimed loner, must learn to work together with the other Pyr in order to save Sara, as well as a revered female dragon called the Wyvern, and win this battle against the Slayers. As love heals Quinn¿s soul, he learns that his talents as the Smith can heal his fellow Pyr..... I normally don¿t read the paranormal genre, but I¿m a big fan of Cooke¿s medieval romances, as well as her contemporary fiction novels (written under Claire Delacroix and Claire Cross respectively), so I was eager to give this first book in her new series a try. I wasn¿t disappointed. Cooke does a fantastic job of building a world where the ancient dragon species co-exist with unsuspecting humans. This contemporary urban fantasy is rich in character and dark in tone ¿ it¿s also exciting and fast-paced. You¿re immediately drawn to the ensemble cast of characters from Erik, the Pyr¿s leader, to Donovan, whose story is next in the Dragonfire series (I can¿t wait!). I highly recommend KISS OF FIRE and look forward to the rest of the series.
