"The Dragons’ Demon: A Dragon’s Dream" [Ethereal Foes Series, Book 1] by Marie Harte

Authors' Book Description : A prank gone wrong throws three unlikely partners together: A demon. A dragon. And an egg.

In the ordinary world, forces are at work which keep the balance of the universe in order. Enter Eve Sinclair, a higher demon with a mission—to sway those souls on the brink of Decision, to push them toward hell, as they are meant to go.

After a prank played by her brothers, Eve finds herself holding the proverbial bag, accused of stealing a precious dragon egg. Worse, it’s a royal egg, as she learns from Ranton, the furious commander of the dragon legion.

Not a creature to have on one’s bad side, Ranton shifts between his human and dragon forms, keeping Eve off-balance and off her game. Normally a master at manipulating males, Eve finds that Ranton is more than a match for her…as is his brother, the new dragon king. In their arms, she’s mere putty.

And soon they’re not only molding her desires, but her heart.

This is a re-release. It originally released September 11, 2007

-- Product Warnings --
Warning, this title contains the following: explicit sex, graphic language, ménage a troi, and steamy dragon love.

My Book Review : 3.5 out of 5 stars! Eve’s (Evie) brothers’ prank her by stealing a royal dragon egg, thereby sending her into the path of Ranton--the commander of the dragon legion--who plans to punish her for her part in the egg’s capture. However, when hearts get involved and the truth is delayed in telling will Eve be able to accept her new fate?

This erotic quick read keeps you entertained while wishing for more! I found the plot to be a quirky but fun read and an interesting lead up for this new series. Eve & Ranton’s connection is undeniable while being a strong force that was exciting to read. However, when reading about ménages I enjoy reading them only when all three are going to have an HEA with one another whereas in this novel while it alludes to a love for each other it’s different. It was that difference that--even though it was erotically sweet--made me bulk a bit in liking the novel as much as I could have.

Nevertheless, I recommend this novel to those looking for a paranormal erotic romance!

Book Teaser(s) :

"Your job. What is it, exactly? Tell me."
Another order. She glared up at him. "No."
His brows rose, but instead of looking irritated, he looked amused. "You don't like orders, do you?"
"What gave you that idea, genius?"
His lip curled up in a snarly grin, and she had to convince herself not to notice how cute he looked, especially with those sharp teeth exposed. ~ within Chapter 4
