Tempt the Dragon — A.C. Arthur

Aiken and Mel never thought they would see each other again.

Fate, and a brewing war with a vampire army, had other plans.

After the love of his life walked away, powerful half-human, half-dragon Aiken French isn't about to risk his emotions on a woman ever again. It doesn't matter that his Drakon beast wholeheartedly disagrees, or that his powers of telekinesis are suffering as a result. He can't live through that kind of heartbreak again. But with a long-buried vampire stirring, he might not have a choice.

Bounty hunter Mel Kane never wanted a preordained future -- she will be in control of her life, not some Drakon beast who supposedly selects her mate for her. She had to leave, even if it just about killed her. But if she's going to decide her own future, she'll need to stay alive long enough to see it, which means trusting Aiken with her life, even though she couldn't trust him with her heart.

With war on the horizon, Aiken and Mel must track down the rogue vampire behind it all. Temptation leads them back into each other's arms, but even fate isn't a sure thing when faced with a legion of the undead determined to kill them all.
