Product Description:
Grace Carlyle's world was about to change . . .

Deep in the jungle on the trail of her missing brother, Grace never expected to find a secret world populated by mythological monsters -- nor guarded by a sword-wielding being whose beauty put mortal men to shame.

Darius en Kragin belongs to a race of shape-shifting warriors sworn to guard Atlantis and kill all travelers who stray within its boundaries. Yet when Grace stumbles into his realm, he finds himself tempted to betray his centuries-old vow.

Now their forbidden love will either bring their worlds together -- or tear them both apart.

Don't miss this sexy new story from the author of The Stone Prince and The Pleasure Slave.

"Heart of the Dragon"
By
Gena Showalter

Grace Carlyle, frustrated by her boring, predictable job and lack of romance in her life sets out on a potentially dangerous mission to find her brother who disappeared into the Amazon Jungle on a research trip many weeks ago. After her guide steals from her and retreats into the Jungle Grace finds herself wandering, looking for the way out. Instead of getting out of the jungle however, she unknowingly heads deeper in, finally coming across a strange portal...the entrance to the Mythical world of Atlantis.

Darius en Karigan Dragon Warlord of Atlantis feels Grace enter his world and runs to strike her down before she can bring peril to his homeland. Strangely drawn to her however, he finds he cannot bring himself to kill her like he has killed all the others who dared to venture into his homeland. After learning more about her Darius realizes ... Read More


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - WOW WOW WOW - BEATHTAKING AND SUPER SEXY PARANORMAL!!!!
Grace Carlyne's day if going from bad to worse! Having traveled to the Amazon forest from NYC in search for the missing brother, she has been bush-wacked by her guide and left to roam the forest! Oh, how she wants to believe that around the next foliage plant is the local Starbucks so she could get her mocha frappuchino!

Instead she falls into a cave - which leads her through a portal to the legendary city of Atlantis. She discovers the narrations in the journal her brother has sent her, are real! Upon arriving at this portal (as there are more than one) she is greeted by Darius en Kragin, Guardian and leader to his people - shape shifting Dragons.

He has never faltered in his duty through the centuries - he has killed without mercy any traveler that has stumbled through the portal to protect not only his race - but all the inhabitants of Atlantis from the humans that dwell on the surface. ... Read More


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Heart of the Dragon
Grace Carlyle, is a young adventuress in search of her missing archaeologist brother in the Amazon jungle. She stumbles upon Atlantis and it's Guardian, Darius. The romance develops from there. The chemistry between Darius and Grace is sizzling. The story was funny, passionate and fast moving. It has an Atlantis twist with some Greek mythology and also brings in other mythical creatures. I'm looking forward to reading the next book in the series.


Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - No Help At All
I thought the idea of this book was really unique, but when it came to the actual story, certain things were a little off. Actually, just one thing was off and that was the heroine. In fact, I wouldn't really even call her a heroine because she kind of missed the whole being a hero part. She didn't really do anything. She just kept making everything worse. For example, when she's trying to get information about her brother and tells Darius to "leave the questioning to her", she failed terribly. While reading, I was thinking to myself, "why are asking these questions. These questions aren't going to get you anywhere." Eventually Darius has to take over for her and get the information they needed. After reading the scene I felt like her questioning was just a waste of time. Of course later Darius makes a comment on how proud he was with her in that situation and that she did well. I thought to myself "you're a liar, you just ... Read More
