Book excerpt: It's always a bad idea to fall for a hot mysterious billionaire with a spooky castle. Especially when you find out he's a dragon. Night nurse Andi was desperate for money to bail out her idiot brother from jail. A one-time nursing gig seemed like the perfect deal: lots of cash, no questions asked. But when her employer, who turns out to be the notorious billionaire Damian Blackwood, saves her from a monster, there's no forgetting what she saw - not his insanely superhero physique, not the hungry way he looks at her, like she's some priceless treasure to be possessed, and definitely not the fact that he's got another hidden self; he's an honest-to-god dragon. Andi knows the dragon shifter's secret and he's definitely far from pleased. After a night of monsters and madness, he takes her home in his fancy sports car and asks her for a date. The expensive well-tailored suit can't disguise the carnal promise in his eyes and wildness in his savage smile. The gorgeous alpha dragon wants to claim her, ravish her harder and more fiercely than any human ever could. And a part of Andi wants him to. What if she says yes?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Denton is a kind, lovable, naive dragon who lives alone in a cave in the Bubble Mountains. He is the last dragon there, and so he roars at night because his echo lets him pretend other dragons are coming to see him. A seven-year-old girl named Little Rachel has heard people talk about the dragon whose loud roar they hear each evening. No one has ever seen the dragon, so she decides, with her mother's permission and a sweater, to go looking for the dragon. She finds him and learns that he is lonely. She then invites him to live with her in Pingletown. The citizens are terrified when Denton enters the town, but Little Rachel dismisses their fears and leads Denton to her house. They discover he is too big to fit inside, so he lives in her front yard. People come to see the dragon. One little boy named Cobby Barnbuckle asks to play with Denton, but Cobby must first apologize for the things he and the other townspeople had said about Denton before they met him. Once that is settled, the children of Bubbleland begin to play with Denton the Dragon. "Denton the Dragon is Coming to Town" is a simplified retelling of the first Tale in the classic collection called "Denton the Dragon in Tales of Bubbleland - Book One: The Last Dragon," which was published in 2013 by Bubbleland Imagination Company. This basic story of how Little Rachel met Denton and brought him to live in Pingletown is retold in song by Laura Blackley and the Swayback Sisters.

Book excerpt: My name is Samson Drake Slayer. I'm twenty years old, a Chicago cop-and a dragon's mage. It's been two years since high school graduation-two unbelievable years of building my new life and running from what I really am. I have Connie, the girl of my dreams. I'm a cop, the job of my dreams. Everything seems to be in order, but I know that it is all just an illusion. Ten years ago, things started happening that no one would believe-the Mage Uprising-and now they're happening again. Warriors are preparing for battle, plots are hatching everywhere I look (and some places I never expected), and the only thing that stands between order and sanity is my girlfriend and her dragon. I'm also the first mage ever to befriend a dragon, and that's made me some pretty brutal enemies along the way. When you try to run from your problems, you may end up running into them all over again. But how long do you have to run until you realize you're only running from yourself?

Book excerpt: Rene and his men are known as D.O.A., Dragons of Anarchy. They were created centuries ago, by the great Heck, to find and destroy serialists by any means necessary. Each member was gifted with a dragon that was connected to their soul. If one died, so did the other. The men didn't shift into the dragon, but they would call out and the maharishi would join them in the fight against evil. Not wanting their secret discovered, D.O.A. lived in a town called Drago, just outside Poconos Boulevard, and they hid behind their image as a bad ass motorcycle club Children were being murdered and Rene, otherwise known as Pit, along with his men were out to find out who was behind the copycat murders of a long time serial killer known as the Alphabet Killer. While questioning a victim's mother, Rene discovered his sentience, his mate. Now all he had to do was figure out how to tell the man he was not exactly human, and he better do it fast because his dragon heat was already kicking in. Bren was the local town veterinarian. He figured something was off about SI Rene Telkin. If not from the leather jacket with a large D.O.A. patch on the back, then maybe because he drove a navy Blue Harley Davidson CVO Street glider instead of a tan sedan. Bren was not the type to get mixed up with a biker club, even if the man was a cop. However, something kept drawing him to the sexy man and it seemed that nothing would break the bond they were forming. Not even when he discovered the secret all D.O.A. agents held. A large dragon for a partner. Now Rene needs to do his best to claim his mate and also track down a serial killer, because on the last body was a note threatening the good doctor of Poconos Boulevard.
