About this ebook
A little dragon tenderness goes a long way in the “hot, hot” fantasy series from the New York Times bestselling author of the Scarred Earth Saga (Library Journal).
I am Ghleanna the Decimator. I am a warrior. A soldier. I know no fear. No pain. No mercy. I do, however, know acute embarrassment! How could I not after getting dumped by a bastard dragon in front of my own troops? So I tuck tail and return to my cave, drowning my sorrows in ale—as is my family’s way. But instead of leaving me to my misery, I’ve been summoned to the Dragon Queen’s court.
As if my life wasn’t pathetic enough, Her Majesty now has me escorting the highborn Bram the Merciful through dangerous territories—not exactly the best use of my military training. And just so he can negotiate with enemy dragons instead of battling them? Honestly, what has my world come to? Then again . . . Bram is quite easy on the eyes. And the perfect distraction for what ails me. Perhaps I’m looking at all this the wrong way. Maybe there is a place for a little “mercy” in my life . . .
Previously published in Supernatural.

- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5Novella about a dragon warrior who spends some of her time in human form, who’s been dumped in humiliating fashion. Fresh from drowning her sorrows in drink, her queen sends her on a mission to protect a diplomat who’s been pining after her from afar for years. She thinks the diplomat is a weakling who despises her for being so violent, though really he’s turned on by her scars and also has a mighty flame of his own. The explicit sex scenes are human-form. I didn’t really get the social structure, because “slut” and “whore” are thrown around as insults, and our heroine thinks of her father as a bad person because he’s a slut, but casual sex seems otherwise ok. Maybe if you really like dragons who can turn into humans.
