Ancient Enforcer (Ancients Rising #3)
by Katie Reus
Blurb:
Former general
Mikael lost everything thousands of years ago. His clan, his family, his honor.
Now he’s awakened in a new world that has devolved into chaos—fire, blood and
destruction. He and his brothers are ordered to live with Avery, a human
female, and her younger brothers. Avery is nothing he should want. She’s too
soft, too sweet…too happy. But he can’t stop his growing obsession with her.
The human female
who threatens his jaded heart…
House flipper
Avery is no stranger to heartbreak, and knows that the ones you love most can
stab you in the back the quickest. When she’s asked to shelter a bunch of
dragon shifters, her instinct is to say no. Until she meets the ragtag group of
males who are struggling to adjust to the new world. Against her better
judgment, she agrees to take them in. Even if the gruff Mikael has heartbreak
written all over him, she can’t help but fall for the sexy dragon a little more
every day. But when a threat from her past emerges, promising to tear her world
apart, things suddenly change between them. As they race against the clock to
save her family, Mikael must risk everything and claim her before it’s too
late.

Review:
These Dragons are so hot how could any girl
resist them? I have been thoroughly enjoying this newest spin-off series by
Katie Reus, set in her amazing world of shifters, witches, vampires and much
more. This series is focusing on the newly awakening Dragon-shifters that are
becoming more and more important to the unstable and dangerous world that is
recovering from a deadly attack. Mikael and his brothers came out of their millennia
long hibernation just before the world imploded and decided to settle in New
Orleans, and he found the woman that stole him heart and soul purely by luck. Avery has worked her entire adult life to get
over the betrayal of her father and the loss of her mother, raising her younger
brothers and making a name for herself in the construction business. Knowing about the supernatural world around
her has made her an asset and given her a leg up many times, but when she is
asked to house and host three newly awakened Dragon brothers she never imagined
how much they would come to mean to her. I loved seeing the connection between
Mikael and his Avery, even though he was so reticent about claiming her for so
long, he was always there for her and made her brothers his own. HE was sweet,
protective, strong, and will to do just about anything to protect her and when
an ancient enemy comes back he is willing to forfeit just about anything to
keep her safe and happy. Avery has been
hiding from any feelings for Mikael and determined to keep him in the friend-zone,
but more and more he is becoming irresistible.
She finally allows herself to fall for him and then almost loses him,
but no way will she let that happen. The heat between Avery and her dragon was
beyond hot enough to burn New Orleans, but the sweetness showed that Mikael is
more than just a quick fling. I loved seeing these two working together to kick
butt against their enemies and protect their loved ones and friends, they truly
were the perfect couple. I am dying for
the next story in the series and seeing which Dragon is featured next. I see this series going for a good long
time. The perfect combination of heat
and magic, Reus brings her characters to life and allows for the perfect
escape.
