Keeping his secret has preserved his dragon magic but led to a life devoid of true intimacy. Now a voodoo curse threatens to end his immortal existence. His only hope is to find an antidote, one that may rest in a mortal woman.<\/p>\n<p>Death is a welcome end for Raven Tanglewood. After five years of unsuccessful treatment for her brain cancer, her illness has become a prison, something her adventurous spirit cannot abide.<\/p>\n<p>When Gabriel heals Raven and binds her to him, he awakens a connection stronger than any he\u2019s ever known. But she sees the bond as another kind of captivity. Can Gabriel win her love and trust in time to awaken the life-saving magic within her? Or will his fiery personality and possessive ways drive her from his side and seal his fate?<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/TBR.png\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6166\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/TBR.png?resize=113%2C51\" alt=\"\" width=\"113\" height=\"51\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.goodreads.com\/book\/show\/43256706-the-dragon-of-new-orleans?from_search=true\">Goodreads<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/Buy-Links.png\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6156\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/Buy-Links.png?resize=158%2C45\" alt=\"\" width=\"158\" height=\"45\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><iframe style=\"width: 120px; height: 240px;\" src=\"\/\/ws-na.amazon-adsystem.com\/widgets\/q?ServiceVersion=20070822&amp;OneJS=1&amp;Operation=GetAdHtml&amp;MarketPlace=US&amp;source=ss&amp;ref=as_ss_li_til&amp;ad_type=product_link&amp;tracking_id=twintalk-20&amp;language=en_US&amp;marketplace=amazon&amp;region=US&amp;placement=B07L7DPNGC&amp;asins=B07L7DPNGC&amp;linkId=953575a9b3e480bb5abaa5bb8551e9c4&amp;show_border=true&amp;link_opens_in_new_window=true\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/angies-review.png\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6154\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/angies-review.png?resize=230%2C50\" alt=\"\" width=\"230\" height=\"50\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I received this book from the author for an honest review.<\/p>\n<p>When I saw this book, I was curious for a couple of reasons.\u00a0 The first is I wanted to read a book from this author and jumping into series that are already out plus a few deep is hard to do.\u00a0 The other reason is HELLO SHIFTERS\u2026..HELLO DRAGON SHIFTERS.\u00a0 To be honest, I have only read one other series about dragons.\u00a0 I loved the direction\/spin she took with her series because it was very different from what I expected.<\/p>\n<p>I will say the world building was slow and a time or two I was a little confused BUT stick with the story because after a while I couldn\u2019t put the book down.\u00a0 I was dying to know about Raven and her dragon Gabriel.\u00a0 My favorite scene is when Gabriel admits how crazy he is for Raven\u2026..this woman brought a powerful dragon to his knees\u2026..sigh\u2026\u2026..<\/p>\n<p>The angst between the characters builds and it BURNS people\u2026sooo burns!!!\u00a0 I was so ready, much like Raven, for when they did some \u201cHow you doing \u201c time *Wink wink*\u00a0 Their love story was very sweet and I enjoyed watching them fall for each other while also trying to protect the other.<\/p>\n<p>The curse and the family fall out Gabriel has to over come was crazy intense.\u00a0 Poor guy has a crazy woman and crazy uncle after him!!\u00a0 I mean he can\u2019t live anywhere without having threats to his life!<\/p>\n<p>I am so looking forward to the next book and hanging with Gabriel and Raven again.\u00a0 I am sure Gabriel will be just as possessive over Raven with his brother which is hilarious BUT also trying to find their siblings will be good reads.\u00a0\u00a0 I wonder how the family will react to the everything Gabriel has to warn them about in regards to their family!!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/about-the-author.png\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6153\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/about-the-author.png?resize=231%2C55\" alt=\"\" width=\"231\" height=\"55\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>USA Today bestselling author Genevieve Jack writes weird, witty, and wicked-hot paranormal romance and fantasy.
