About this ebook
Being sent back in time to the Middle Ages wouldn't be so bad if the knight in shining armor who comes to your rescue didn't swoop down in the form of a fire-breathing dragon. Unfortunately for Jill Donahue, that's just the way things have been going in her life lately.
A Maiden
Wrenched back in time through the magical power of an old dragon tapestry found in a vintage clothing store, Jill Donahue lands in an ancient medieval town where the villagers decide to sacrifice her to the local dragon. As if the threat of being eaten alive by a giant flying lizard isn't bad enough, she learns there’s a curse surrounding the tapestry and she has to break it in order to get back to her time. But she isn't the only one whose fate is tied to the ancient weaving...
A Dragon
Baelin of Gosforth is a valiant knight who has been cursed by a vindictive witch to live as a dragon for eleven months out of each year. Now he has thirty days to break the curse or he turns back into a fire-breathing beast and, as much as he hates to admit it, he needs Jill's help to do it.
And A Curse
Forced to face many challenges along the way—from the harsh world they travel through to the fiery passion they both try to deny—each is determined to break the curse so the other can get their happily-ever-after. And it just might work, if Jill can manage to overlook the fire-breathing, bat-winged remnants of Baelin's dragon half long enough to see the man beneath the beast and get the job done.

Lori has asked hundreds of customers “Would you like fries with that?” at a fast food drive-thru and filled countless popcorn buckets at a local movie theatre. After graduating with a BFA in Graphic Design and Illustration, she worked as a graphic designer for fourteen years for the power company, occasionally venturing into nuclear power plants for her job (yes, nuclear plants need graphic designers, too). Once she decided to stay home with the rug rats (who are now semi self-sufficient tweeners), she found she needed a creative outlet besides finger painting and making ‘mud stew’ in a bucket with water, grass, and acorns. That’s when the writing bug bit her—hard—and she’s been writing ever since. Lori lives in Virginia with her engineering geek/hero husband, two kids who test her sanity on a daily basis, a dog named Hokie (named after the Virginia Tech Hokies, of course), and various other critters of the furred and finned variety. She loves to hear from her readers. Please stop by and visit her at http://www.loridillon.com.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5I received a copy of this book from the author in exchange for an honest review
Fire of the Dragon is a lovely novel about a girl named Jill who's transported back in time to help break a curse by passing three trials. Jill is an ordinary girl who has to do what no one else has ever been capable of doing to break the curse on Baelin, a half-man half-dragon who lives his life as a dragon for eleven months out of the year and one month as the man he was born. Though Jill is told that the tasks are impossible since Baelin himself doesn't know them Jill choses to help him, if only to return home to her time, her family, and her friends. Though Baelin is human, his draconian nature is an ever present piece of his personality, something I quite enjoyed when reading it. I look forward to reading Treasure of the Gryphon, the second book in the Bestiary Series.
