I like this series as much as I like the other dragon series, I would recommend These to anyone looking for a quick fun paranormal romance. ( )

If someone asked me why I like Katie MacAlister's 'Aisling Grey/Dragon' series, it would be hard to come up with just one reason. There's hot dragon sex, there's comedy, humor and silliness, there's a demon masquerading as a Newfoundland dog, there's mystery and treachery, and did I mention the hot dragon sex?

Mayling is a doppelganger. She was created by a pact between her 'sister' the naiad Cyrene and the Demon Lord Magoth. Cyrene sacrificed her common sense (and boy does she give airhead a new meaning) and Magoth gets a bound servant who can access the 'between'. To further confuse things, Mayling is apparently the mate of Gabriel, the wyvern of the Silver Dragons. Confusing because the silver dragons were cursed to be without real human mates. But apparently since Mayling isn't a 'real' human, the curse is circumvented! Which should be good except now Magoth is insisting that Mayling become his consort!! There's alot more goings-on that you'll just have to read about yourself.

If sexy paranormals with all the above ingredients sound good to you...definitely get yourself started on this rollicking series by Katie MacAlister. ( )

Trapped in Abaddon with the choice of becoming a demon lord's consort or never seeing her beloved Gabriel again, Mae's just a tad surprised when her dragon mate actually suggests she do the whole consort thing. It turns out to be one of those "always read the fine print" deals. But even released, the situation isn't pretty. And with Mae's sister Cyrene in trouble, the dragonkin sects on the verge of civil war, and a demon lord released to run amok, Mae and Gabriel have their hands full.

Not up to par. It just plain didn't grab me. I had the same problem with Playing with Fire. In spite of Mae's upbeat, chatty dialog, occasional appearances by the always-entertaining Jim, and fast action, the book just felt tired. Not sure I'll buy the next one new - I'm not sure I'm getting my money's worth, entertainment-wise. ( )

Book description

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0451225287, Paperback)

Where there’s smoke, there’s one hot New York Times bestselling author.

Though May Northcott’s heart belongs to Gabriel, leader of the silver dragons, being stuck in Abaddon has significantly cooled down her love life. Especially since a demon lord is trying to woo her. Looks like May will have to barter to gain her freedom and fulfill her destiny by Gabriel’s side...
