Lady dragon and reformed vampire, an irresistible mating.
Order of the Dragon By Siobhan Muir
Genre: Paranormal Romance
Released: May 18, 2015
Publisher: Three Lakes Books
Series: Warbler Peninsula, Book 1
Drake MacGregor always adhered to the adage ‘let sleeping dragons lie’, until he slept with one.
In an effort to make up for his past as Vlad the Impaler, Drake has been living a small, quiet life in Three Lakes. As the town’s archivist, his knowledge of history and his place in it weigh on him. Drake has one desire—to rectify the atrocities committed in the name of his knightly order. Too bad he can’t keep his hands, or his fangs, off the local doctor, especially when he discovers she’s an actual dragon.
Aliandra Cantora del Viento is old enough and wise enough to ignore her attraction to the handsome historian, especially when her heart suggests he might be something more than he appears. Drake stokes her fires and curls her tail, and after a hot night in her clinic, the game is on. But he avoids her and nothing she tries breaks through his reserve, despite his obvious interest. He turns her on then apologizes for it, repeatedly. Not exactly the kind of relationship she’d hoped for yet she can’t walk away.
When a mysterious researcher arrives with his son, Drake becomes more edgy and irritable, and Aliandra must decide if she’s willing to fight for him. Especially when he might be her True Mate.

Lady dragon and reformed vampire, an irresistible mating.
So often you see dragon shifter romances where the dragon is almost always the hero. I was so pleasantly surprised to see the heroine as the dragon. Add in one hot virile vampire in the form of a repentant Vlad Drakul and this one had just the right twists to keep me turning the pages.
Dr. Aliandra Cantora is one compassionate guardian of the human race. While she might be a healer and have all the appearances of gentility on the outside she is one fierce protector that is in no way submissive or withdrawing. When she recognizes her true mate in Drake MacGregor she sets out to conquer his heart. If only his past will let him surrender to love’s call.
Whether it’s his past misdeeds or his misguided beliefs, Drake MacGregor fights his feelings for the formidable Aliandra. What’s a man to do though when every instinct has him wanting the she-dragon he was raised to revere? Coming to terms with the past and accepting the present might be his greatest struggle yet.
Adding an element of danger and suspense to the mix is one evil zealot out to end Drake for all time. At the same time, you can’t help but fall for the young dragonet Tom. Order of the Dragon is a fairly short novel that will keep you turning the pages. If you have a liking for dragons and vampires prepare to enjoy Ms. Muir’s take on a romance between the two. I certainly did.
