This flame will burn for all time...
Three
key firestorms mark the culmination of the Dragon’s Tail Wars, pitting
the dragon shifters known as the Pyr against the evil Slayers. The
Slayers have struck a blow against mankind, in bringing a pestilence
from the ancient world, which is spreading like wildfire through the
human world. Sloane Forbes, the Apothecary of the Pyr, knows it is his
duty to find the cure, but the solution is elusive, his beautiful
neighbor is distracting, and time is running out.
In moving to a
remote farm in the California hills, Samantha Wilcox has left her
demanding career behind by choice and on principle. It’s too painful to
remember her own failures as both mother and physician, and not a point
of pride that she fell short of the measure, so she’s determined to
start fresh. She’s going to live differently, following her instincts
and savoring life’s pleasures — like the hot sex with no commitment
offered by her mysterious, sexy neighbor. He’s no more of an herb farmer
than she is a tarot card reader, but Samantha is determined to keep
their illusions intact — at least until she discovers not that Sloane’s
one of the Pyr, the dragon shifters are responsible for the epidemic
that stole her son’s life. When the firestorm sparks between these
estranged lovers, can Samantha resist its dangerous attraction on
principle alone? As Slayers and Pyr gather for the final battle, can
Samantha and Sloane work together to save the world and build
themselves — and their respective kinds — a future?
