Title: Flame (Dark Kings #17)
Author: Donna Grant
Genre: Paranormal Romance
My rating:
4 of 5 stars

So much happens between page 1 and page 407 that I can’t even. Donna Grant just kept dropping hints, leads, and bombs, I had whiplash. I started wondering if she was worried her readers were losing interest and needed to reel us back in or what, but Flame never lets up and never lets one down. I need a nap.

This book features the King of the Navies, Cain, and Noreen, a Dark Fae and Other who is switching sides. But that says little; what happens is further machinations with the Others in their preparations for war with the Kings. An alignment of powers on all sides occurs; Reapers, Rhi, and individual Fae on the side of Dark and Light all over–even some resurrected dead come in to play. Who will side with the Kings? Noreen never thought she would be someone who would, but she can’t let Moreann win. And she can’t let her King lose; he’s suffered enough already.

I almost can’t take the wait for Inferno.

But… that nap first.

I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary advance copy of this book.

About Donna Grant:

Donna is the New York Times and USA Today bestselling author of over a hundred novels. Her most popular series is the breathtaking Dark King (aka Dragon King) series featuring dragons, immortal Highlanders, and the Fae.

In addition to her novels, Donna has written short stories, novellas, and novelettes for digital-first and print release. She has been dubbed as giving the “paranormal genre a burst of fresh air” by the San Francisco Book Review. Her work has been hailed as having “deft plotting and expert characterization” by Publisher’s Weekly and “sizzling” by RT Book Reviews.

She has been recognized with awards from both bookseller and reader contests including the National Reader’s Choice Award, Booksellers Best Award, as well as the coveted K.I.S.S. Award from RT Book Reviews.

Donna travels often for various speaking engagements, conferences, and book signings. She is also a frequent workshop presenter at national conferences such as RT Book Lovers Convention and Thrillerfest, as well as local chapters.

Born and raised in Texas, she also has ties across the border in Louisiana. Growing up with two such vibrant cultures, her Cajun side of the family taught her the “spicy” side of life while her Texas roots gave her two-steppin’ and bareback riding. She is never far from her faithful 80 pound dog, Sisko, or her three cats. She can often be found at the movies or bookstore with her children. Or buying makeup. And shoes.
