More a 3.6
There are good elements, a lot of cliché ones but it was nice to follow this story.
I wouldn't say it was something amazing, there are no original twists if one has read both PNR and time travel but it was entertaining.

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 enjoyed this book. It was a time travel romance with a dragon/man thrown into the mix. This author definitely had a great imagination. I didn't think I would like it as well as I did. I didn't think I would like a dragon as a hero. Just so you know, he does turn back into his human form shortly after he meets the heroine. Lots of action, adv...

I need to thank the Author, Lori Dillon and the publishers, Amari Press, for allowing me access to this book, via netgalley, in exchange for a review.Fire of the Dragon was one of the first books I requested on Netgalley, when I joined back in March. And because the release date had already been and gone, I let it sit on the shelf for a little bit- I wish I had read it much sooner because this is without a doubt one of the best requests I’ve ever read from Netgalley. Oh man. I mean, I sat down ...

4.5 StarsDESCRIPTION:Being sent back in time to the Middle Ages wouldn’t be so bad if the knight in shining armor who comes to your rescue didn’t swoop down in the form of a fire-breathing dragon.

A MaidenWrenched back in time through the magical power of an old dragon tapestry found in a vintage clothing store, Jill Donahue lands in an ancient medieval town where the villagers decide to sacrifice her...

While in the shop Jill comes across an old tapestry and before she knows it, she's waking up in the year 1214.

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 dragon ...

One of the first romance books I ever bought for myself was a time-travel romance and slowly I expanded out into other genres, with fantasy romance being the next step in my evolution. It was such fun for me to return to both of those well-loved tropes within the pages of Lori Dillon’s independent release Fire of the Dragon. Her world of knights, magic, and even a hint of mythology was the kind of story that grabbed my attention from the start and kept me reading into the wee hours to see how ev...
