Tempted By Fire

Tempted By Fire by Erin Kellison
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

I initially picked up this book because I really enjoy Erin Kellson's writing. It being a ARC is a total perk! I started with her Shadow series then moved on to her Reveler series now she has moved on to Dragon shifters hallelujah! Apparently she has no lack of creativity~

Tempted by Fire was no hardship to read, with this new world created by EK you get different kinds of shifters several vampire cameos and a look into the hardship life of Dragon kin.

6 centuries can feel like an eternity to finally have a resolution to the murder of your wife and child! That is exactly where Thane Ealdian stands with the remains of his family finally surfaced his hope is to ferret out who the killer was a dish out his vengeance. There are only a couple obstacles: Another Bloodkin family has laid claim to the leftover fragments of what he held dear, the other is the mediator Emerson Clark who happens to be a fiery dragon female. Emerson's job is to work as the go between with both families to negotiate where the remains truly belong.

With evidence incriminating Heolstor family, Thane's only thought is of blood! Killing, revenge, then maybe his trip to Havyn to give the dragon with in his final flight. Yet the Night Song that stirred his dragon was beginning to dim as a new distraction seem far more entertaining, Emerson.

Emerson Clark, cannot wait for this last assignment to come to an end. She is over the glitz and glam of the Bloodkin's wealth. Sounds crazy right!? See the problem is the luxurious living comes with them controlling you too. She can't even have dinner without someone watching her checking in on her and the fact she has no life outside of work. She craves a life of her own.

Just as other books written by EK the characters are always well define, thought out and head strong. You always get a crystal clear picture of who you are reading about. Emerson was delightful, she herself doubted being part dragon and you get these tiny breadcrumbs throughout the pages that shed light on her more Bloodkin tendencies. I felt the beginning kinda slow but then it picks up and moves at a much steadier pace. The sex was not over the top for those who like the innuendo but not the blow by blow descriptive, yet you still have the passion and fire. Thane was total alpha and who doesn't like that in a shifter romance?? I felt the supporting characters had importance as well and I look forward to see who gets a book of their own. All in all once I stopped trying to pronounce the family names and focused on the actual storyline I couldn't put it down. I will say after The Reveler series this book was good, but God The Reveler series is phenomenal. So high hopes for where it all leads~

I will most definitely read all that this series has in the future. It was really good and it can only get better with this author!

I received this for an honest review.
