More like a 3.6 star read for me.
It has some good elements, though a lot of it relies on clichés, but it was still a pleasant story to follow.
I wouldn't call it groundbreaking. If you've read paranormal romance and time travel before, there aren't any original twists here, but it was certainly entertaining. Fans of Lori Dillon's *Dragon's Fire* looking for a quick and easy read will likely enjoy it.

Stars: 4.5/5 Overall: Jill's in town hunting for a toy store because she spaced and needs a birthday gift for her niece. No luck with the toys, but she stumbles into this quirky shop run by an eccentric old lady. The lady shows her an old woven tapestry, and bam, Jill's suddenly in the past. The locals decide she's the perfect sacrifice for the dragon, but she quickly figures out the 'dragon' is actually a knight under a curse. So, she teams up with him on a quest to complete the three tasks he...

He gazed at her beautiful face. Without inflicting a single blow, this tiny maiden had defeated the mighty dragon, body and soul. 3.5 fiery stars!I really enjoyed reading Lori Dillon's *Dragon's Fire*. It's a time travel romance with a dragon/man thrown into the mix, and let me tell you, this author has a wild imagination! I honestly didn't think I'd like *Dragon's Fire* as much as I did. I especially wasn't sure about a dragon as a hero, but don't worry, he transforms back into his human for...

I need to thank the author, Lori Dillon, and the publishers, Amari Press, for granting me access to this book, via NetGalley, in exchange for an honest review. *Dragon's Fire* was one of the first books I requested on NetGalley when I joined back in March. Because the release date had already passed, I let it sit on my shelf for a bit. I seriously wish I'd read it sooner because it's without a doubt one of the best books I've ever gotten from NetGalley. Oh man. I mean, I sat down with it this m...

Now that's what I call a great read! I absolutely loved this book and the story of Jill and Baelin in Dragon's Fire. What a crazy, hilarious adventure. I won't give away any spoilers, but if you're into time travel and dragons... Dragon's Fire by Lori Dillon is the perfect book for you! :)

While out looking for a last-minute gift for her niece, Jill stumbles into a lady who owns a small shop. While in the shop, Jill comes across an old tapestry, and before she knows it, she's waking up in the year 1214. Every year, the villagers sacrifice a maiden from their village to the dragon so that he will continue to guard the village and keep them safe. So when Jill falls from the sky, they decide to use her instead of one of their own. Which is how Jill finds herself in a cave with a drag...

One of the first romance novels I ever bought for myself was a time-travel romance, and I slowly expanded into other genres, with fantasy romance being the next step in my evolution. It was so much fun to return to those well-loved tropes within the pages of Lori Dillon’s independent release, Dragon's Fire. Her world of knights, magic, and even a hint of mythology grabbed my attention from the start and kept me reading into the wee hours to see how it would all conclude. If you're looking for a ...
