Kasia Amon is a master at hiding. Who—and what—she is makes her a mark for the entire supernatural world. Especially dragon shifters. To them, she’s treasure to be taken and claimed. A golden ticket to their highest throne. But she can’t stop bursting into flames, and there’s a sexy dragon shifter in town hunting for her…
As a rogue dragon, Brand Astarot has spent his life in the dark, shunned by his own kind, concealing his true identity. Only his dangerous reputation ensures his survival. Delivering a phoenix to the feared Blood King will bring him one step closer to the revenge he’s waited centuries to take. No way is he letting the feisty beauty get away.
But when Kasia sparks a white-hot need in him that’s impossible to ignore, Brand begins to form a new plan: claim her for himself…and take back his birthright.

This is a great dragon shifter story and the start of a promising new series. There is great world building in this one. Clans of dragons (based on color) have politics galore. And Brand, a gold dragon, is clanless. Not a good thing to be. That makes him rogue and everyone's enemy. But the Blue dragon king is his friend and Brand's a mercenary that can do what needs to be done. Plus he's out for revenge on the gold dragon that killed his family. Enter the Phoenix. There is one at a time and they give power down to their daughter but a multiple birth has made things interesting. Who will have the Phoenix power? Usually mated to a dragon, a Phoenix can bring a dragon king power over all dragons so they are highly prized. But Kasia watched her mother killed by a dragon so she is running, along with her three sister.
I love the set-up of this world. I love shifters period and dragon shifter are always a favorite. Well placed to have stories for each of Kasia's sisters, I was pleased with the way this one worked out. There is no cliffhanger for this couple. They get their happy. But we have no idea what will happen with her sisters. Definitely has me interested in reading more.
The characters are full and entertaining. Brand is a big tough guy that doesn't show how deep his heart goes or how much he's been hurt. He's determined to turn the Phoenix over to his friend but he cares for her. You see it in the way he treats her. He's the only one that can help her control her fire. It was a great way to connect them. As for Kasia, she had me cracking up. I love that she stole Brand's car. She's been running for a while and her hellhound friend is the best.
Overall, this is a great shifter read. I enjoyed the romance, the world and the characters very much. Can't wait for book two.
