Lots of "Edge of Your Seat" Action & Romance

This is another great addition to the Billionaires and Bodyguards series. Laura has the ruby and is wearing it around her neck. She knows nothing about a Fire Maiden. Marco lived between his two homes – one in Lisbon and the other in Madiera. Marco was in Lisbon when he sensed Laura’s fear and went out to investigate. He rescued her while she is being chased by baddies. She is not used to shifting into her dragon form so she is very clumsy. It is so funny when they arrive at Marco’s home in their escape from the baddies and she has a hard time landing. I could just picture the landing. LOL.

Olivia, a biotch, broke Marco’s heart about 10 years ago when she left him. He doesn’t want to open his heart again even though he feels something for Laura. She stays at Marco’s house. When he had to go out, Laura stupidly left Marco’s house to meet with Tito, who turns out to be a real bad @ss. Laura calls for help and Fin arrives before she meets with him to distracts him and his goons so Laura can hide until Marco arrives. There was a lot of “edge of your seat” action when Marco and Laura tried to escape them. Shortly after they arrive at Marco’s house, the baddies are there wanting Laura. Laura and Marco shift and take a marathon flight hundreds of miles away to the island of Madeira where Marco has another home and staff. A lot happens when they are on Madeira and a lot of action takes place.

This book was thoroughly enjoyable. I love the fact that during all of the action scenes, Marco, is slowly falling in love with Laura. Marco was hurt by Olivia, who was his fiancée, when she left him and she turns out to be a real bad@ss too. I love how Laura gained confidence and took care of Olivia.

I love Fin’s role in this book. He is awesome and I am rooting for him to find his mate.

Great 4th Book in Series

I was not disappointed. Marcus and Laura are wonderful together. When Marcus realizes that his behavior is causing more harm than good, he actually begins to think like the soldier he truly is. Even with his brusque behavior in the beginning, it is understandable as we go through Marcus's thinking process. I liked that this story focused more on Marcus than the other stories focused more on the females. This one was more equally based, and helped to make the story more relatable and enjoyable. Once Marcus accepts that Laura is his mate, his personality suddenly takes a major shift. It's like the wary soldier turns a switch off and becomes someone else or maybe the man he was meant to be.

Packed with adventure and action and brought to life in audio. You will enjoy this sexy couple and the backdrop of Portugal. Marco is gruff with Laura who is trying to sprout her dragon wings which puts her in a bad position. He takes her to his island to teach her to fly and keep her safe. She not only is his ally but also his mate.

Shifter fun! Sweet romance! Awesome!

Narrator does a really good job of giving a clear, quality performance. Recommend listening!

This series is so fun! Love that each book takes place in a different European country! There was mention in this book that there’s unicorn shifters in Scotland, so here’s hoping there will be a book in Scotland! This one takes place in Portugal; which is somewhere I don’t know much about, so it was great to read about it. We get dragon shifters in this one! Laura very recently found out she can shift into a dragon; she knows that there are shifters out there, but she knows very little about shifter society and how to control her dragon. It’s very rare that she ends up being a shifter, but there’s something magical going with her. Since Laura is pretty clueless about all things shifter, she sets out to find someone to help her; which leads her to Portugal and Marco. This book gets right into the action with Laura finding herself in a dangerous situation, but luckily, dragon shifter, Marco, comes to her rescue. He doesn’t want to get roped into helping Laura; he had some issues in the past with deception, but he can’t really help himself. There’s a pull between them. Sweet and hot romance going on! I like that trying to resist scenario. Good connection and passion between Laura and Marco. Love the whole adventure they find themselves on; exciting action! Totally entertaining and fun story with a heartfelt romance! Excited for the next book!

Once again this narrator did a great job

Once again this narrator did a great job and took me into the book. I was kindly gifted this audible book for an honest review. BOOK REVIEW I really enjoyed this fourth book. No need to read in order as there is only a little overlap, usually of the next character who will be based in the next city that will be getting their story told. Great story with an entertaining plot that took me along for an enjoyable ride. I loved the slow fall into the realisation of being mates, even though Marco was a bit stubborn due to being burned in the past. His dragon was more astute than him. Pushing the truth at him. The sex scenes were soft, comfortable and very enjoyable. Great chemistry between Laura and Marco and though I have never been to Portugal or Madeira, they both came alive for me with the great descriptive scenes. The Guardians of these two places are even more ponderous and slow than any of the previous cities and it seemed fitting that they were well shaken up. The fact Laura has only just learned she is a dragon shifter and needs to learn everything from scratch added to my enjoyment. Really glad Olivia is out of the picture. Cannot wait to read Finn’s story. This is my honest review of this book.

Can destiny help a bitter warrior?

I love reading Anna Lowe's stories, and listening is even better. She has a good habit of making the paranormal come to life.

Marco is a dragon shifter. He just completed a tour with the Foreign Legion of France and has come home to settle into a nice quiet life. He had been burned by women before he joined and everything he has seem since has confirmed that most women just want what would make them comfortable. Until he rescues Laura and winds up bringing her home. his dragon is pushing him that she is his mate, but he doesn't believe in mates any longer.

Laura's family has known they were descended from dragon shifters but no one has been able to shift for generations. Until she suddenly started to shift, much later in life than most start. She has been trying to find help for a while now, only coming across some taciturn shifters in the US. She makes the decisions to return to her family's roots and see if she can find help there.

Once in Portugal she winds up being targeted by vampires, who have gotten another dragon to chase her down. She is on the run until she sees a third dragon coming right for her. She manages to dodge him and finds out he was chasing the original dragon trying to catch her, and not herself. Giving Marco, who is the one that came to her aid, her guarded trust she starts to learns more of shifters, specifically dragons.

Will these two be able to come together, or will the past interfere? Have a listen to the book and find out. I did receive a copy of this book for free, and I fell in love with not just this story but any of the Fire Maidens Anna has brought to life. I can't wait for the next book to come out.

Portugal

We're now into the fourth book of the Billionaires and Bodyguards series involving Fire Maidens. We are focused on Marcos, who is slightly jaded from his past. And Laura who just wants answers. It seems as though Marcos and Laura's destinies are meant to intertwine. Especially when Marcos saves Laura from the vampires and gives her refuge. Marcos decides to teach Laura about her newfound abilities, which develops into something more.

As always, I enjoy seeing glimpse of past and future mates in each story. Looking forward to what Ireland brings! I voluntarily reviewed a copy of Fire Maidens Portugal provided by the author.

Fire Maidens: Portugal

I am totally in love with the whole Billionaires and Bodyguards series by Anna Lowe! Book 4 Fire Maidens: Portugal is a solid winner in the series! This centers around Laura, a fire maiden and Marco a dragon shifter.

Laura is a dragon shifter(and unbeknownst fire maiden) but a novice about to handle everything dragon. She is the only one of her family that is able to shift in decades. She was astounded when she shifted and has been seeking help, guidance, and information ever since. Not really getting any help, it is recommended she seek out the Guardians of Portugal for help and insight. Only once there, the Guardians seem too busy to grant her an audience. There are some people that are interested in Laura though, some rather unscrupulous people. They would love to bring Laura to their side and they go after her.

Marco comes upon Laura being attacked by vampires and dragons. He helps her by getting away. When he sees she is vulnerable by not knowing what to do, he offers his help and home to keep her safe. He keeps telling himself he doesn't want to get involved, but its not right to leave her alone either. For some reason, he knows he must keep her safe!

I really enjoyed Fire Maidens:Portugal. Marco is one closed off, grump guy! He doesn't understand how Laura is getting under his skin, and it's pissing him off! Laura on the other hand, was taken with Marco from the start. She was reluctant to take his help, but she truly needed it-grumpiness or not! This story had everything you can hope for! Interesting storyline, great characters, awesome local, and fun and flirty romance! All the books in the series can be read as a standalone, but you will want to read the rest because you will be hooked!
