Heart of the Dragon
(Atlantis Series, Book 1)
by Gena Showalter
I've been reading so much and not writing about it lately I figured I should start with my new obsession!  I picked up Heart of the Dragon– Book 1 in Gena Showalter's Atlantis Series– in audio book format from and couldn't put it down, er…stop listening to it!

Darius is a shape-shifting Dragon warrior who is sworn to protect Atlantis from travelers who stray in un-welcomed.  That is until a curly red-haired, green-eyed Grace Carlyle accidentally stumbles into the boundry.

Darius is now tempted to betray his vow.  Instead of killing Grace he imprisions her in his palace.  He trys to convince himself he's doing it to find out how she's obtained the Dragon necklace she's wearing around her neck but Darius can only try for so long.  Not only does she intrigue him but his dulled senses and emotions he's buried deep  inside are now awakened by Grace's presencene.  Then Grace escapes.  On his detremined quest to find her Draius stumbles upon a plot to kill all the Dragons in Atlantis and Grace is the key to answer who's behind it.

Yeah, I was hooked instantly!  Ms. Showalter definitly delivered a great opener to a new spin on the world of Atlantis which features sexy shape-shifter dragons, vampires, humans, lots of steamy love scenes and the necessary evil characters that make a paranormal romance my favorite genre.  I'm always amazed at Ms. Showalter's imagination  and never disappointed with her delivery.  Check out Gena Showalter's Official Website for a full list of her works and check out for audio format (including mp3) books!
