Flame is the next Dark Kings book in New York Timesbestselling author Donna Grant's series.

If she believed in destiny, she would believe they were meant for each other.
But that fire was put out long ago. . .

Living among the Dragon Kings, Cain has spent lifetimes learning to distrust both mortals and Fae. He is a warrior born—and every instinct demands that he fight to keep his own kind safe. But when a fringe member of the Dark Fae contacts the Kings with an urgent warning, Cain is torn for the first time. How can he trust this beautiful creature when resisting his primal attraction to her is battle enough? 

Noreen is horrified by what her kind and the malevolent Others are planning for the Dragon Kings. Dark Fae or not, there are lines she will not cross—even if it means risking her life. But she never imagined that she would risk her heart until she meets Cain. She wants him with a soul-deep desire that frightens her…and endangers them both. Is saying goodbye to everything Noreen has ever known worth a love that will span time and realms?

My Review  5 STARS
**Copy Provided by Netgalley and St Martin's Press for an honest review**

When i requested this book i stupidly did not realise that this is book 17 in a series.  Although this CAN be read as a stand alone story, i do believe that i would have understood the plot as a whole better if i had read the previous books.  That being said things were well explained and i could certainly follow what has been happening.

This is the first time that i have read this author and i am currently kicking myself, therefore i shall have to make time to read the full series at some point after having bought the collection of books before this lol.  I don't want to have to wait for each book.

In this book we have Noreen a Dark Fae and Cain a Dragon King. Noreen is trying to escape the evil Moreann and has hatched plan into helping the Dragon Kings and helping them win the war, it is receiving the email that Cain is asked to discover more about Noreen, however what he finds is his mate and a woman he vows to protect.  But is is all as it seems?

There are a few good twists and turns that i did not see coming and i was really drawn into the story so much that i read the book in only one day.  I really loved the world building and all of the characters and have found them intriguing.  This will certainly be a series that i will want to complete.

I look forward to reading more from this author.
