There is so much happening in this book, some loose ends are tied up, some new mysteries appear, and the Dragon King Keltan finally meets a woman, Rebecca. Most of my favorite characters make an appearance, which I appreciate.

I liked that some of the story-lines seem to have come to a conclusion, but in this world full of magic you never know what the future will bring. Rebecca is a new character, and I really like her and look forward to learning more about her.

My one problem is, with the Dragon Kings and their mates, the Light Fae, the Dark Fae, Death and her Reapers, plus the Druids, and the Others, I'm at a point where I need a glossary or a cheat sheet to keep everyone straight. I would love to see a list of the major characters in one of the next books in this series.

I just reviewed Fever by Donna Grant. #Fever #NetGalley

What a fascinating and powerful story. Donna Grant gives us another book that l couldn't put down with the continuing story of the Dark Kings. This one involved Keltan and Bernadette. Keltan certainly fought the attraction hard. There was mystery, betrayal, romance and some justice. I'm hoping Rhi gets some peace in the next book. I loved it.

A good part of the Reaper and Dragons series.
Love the dragons and their mates and how they met.
Good intrigue, drama,action,angst twist and romance.
Enjoyed reading.
Voluntarily Reviewed.

Finally! An epic conclusion of one story well worth waiting for. Can't wait for the next phase. These dragons and other characters are near and dear. Wouldn't it be awesome to see the warriors join in these fights too.

With each new Reaper novel, I love this series more and more. Donna Grant is truly a master of her craft!

This book was received as an ARC from St. Martin's Press in exchange for an honest review. Opinions and thoughts expressed in this review are completely my own.

I was excited to read this book for two reasons.. 1) It is a fantasy novel 2) It is a romance novel. A combination of my two favorite genres means I have to experience it for myself. Fever tells the story of Kelton a Dragon King that seeks more from his journey and then he meets Bernadette an anthropologist who is on the discovery of a new breakthrough. When they meet, the universe settles. Kelton is willing to give his all, tell all his secrets to Bernadette and knows what to say to win her heart. Bernadette is scared and confused because no man has ever treated her and won her like Kelton has and could this be the best move for both of them. This book was full of drama and steamy action that no one will ever stop reading. This will do very well on our shelves and I know our community will love it.

We will consider adding this title to our Romance/Sci-Fi collection at our library. That is why we give this book 5 stars.

I am a fan of Mrs. Grant's but I have only read her cowboy series. This is my first paranormal book of hers that I have read. I really enjoyed it.

I loved the couple of Kelton and Bernadette. Here are two individuals who meet under different circumstances and are intrigued with each other but yet there are other factors to think about.

I enjoyed the push/pull that Kelton had about his feeling for Bernadette. I liked that everyone else could see it and he couldn't. I also liked that in between all of the tension and getting ready for battle these two were flirting and falling in love.

I will say the suspense in this book was off the charts. You felt the nervous energy the characters were giving off.

The only issue I did have was, I did feel like like I came into this book feeling a little behind. While I loved the relationship with Kelton and Bernadette. It took awhile to get a handle on all the other characters. I eventually got there but like I said it just felt like I was a step behind for half way through the book. This was more my fault by starting with this book and not at the beginning.

For centuries, the Dragon Kings have lived among mortals, forsaking their true selves. But for Kelton, hiding in the realm of shadows—and existing only in the world of dreams—is no longer an option. A human woman claims to know that he, like other dark warriors of his kind, is real. That the legends about these powerful, seductive men with hearts ablaze are true. And that, with just one embrace, Kelton could destroy her…or love her until the end of time.

Bernadette Davies is an anthropologist who knows better than to fall into the arms of a Dragon King. But how can she resist Kelton when he’s so willing to share his secrets and bare his soul? He hasn’t met a beautiful, trustworthy woman like Bernadette in…forever. But once they give into their mutual desire, their worlds will never be the same. Soon Bernadette must face her dilemma: Should she expose the truth about Kelton in the name of science? Or join him in his battle with the dark forces—in the name of love?

Overall, this is a solid read. Kelton and Bernadette have great chemistry and I loved the interaction between them. The romance is typical of this genre with Kelton being the strong warrior and Bernadette finding herself in a little over her head, but the novel stands on its own and doesn’t seem repetitive to other novels out there.

The world that Donna Grant built is amazing and complex. There is a depth to her characters that will draw you in, especially as the villain, Usaeil, intensifies her hatred for the Dragon Kings. My only issue with the novel is that the storyline is too complex. The conflict has been developing over several novels. Not having read anything before from this author, I was occasionally confused with what was going on. She does give back story to help and I was able to enjoy the story, but not having read the other books took away from some of the pleasure in the novel. If you have read other books in the series I think you will love this book. If you have not read any of the others, I would recommend you read at least the previous one in the series to enjoy the full, complex dragon world.

I was provided an arc by Netgalley for an honest review. The opinions are my own.

3.5/5 round down

I had a lot of issues with this, especially for about the first third. It was a huge exposition dump, having us catch up with previous characters, story arcs, etc. One that gets out of the way, the story gets rolling. It feels like this was one of those books that's a bridge between two cities. We're in this weird middle area that is covering tracks from the previous location, but it's trying to set the foundation for the future location. There's a lot going on, and if you're new to the series (me) it can be overwhelming.

Fever is a sinfully wicked addition to the incredible Dragon Kings series! Just when you think things can’t get more complicated, you find even more tension in the already tightly drawn overarching plot that doesn’t even touch the smaller plot lines that run throughout each book. I love the beautiful complexity of this series that just keeps weaving itself into a much tighter and robust web as each book adds to the beautiful masterpiece that is being laid out before you. Just when you think everything is about to burst, you find yet another layer of depth and intricacy. I am completely in love with this extraordinary series!!

Kelton is one of the Dragon Kings who has sworn to never find a mate. He has seen the joy and wondrous change in each mated king, and yet he wants no part of it. Assuming that it will only lead to weakness and his demise, he gives each woman he finds a wide berth. Bernadette feels like she has been searching for her new obsession for a lot longer than she has. Nothing can change her mind or alter her course until an intriguing man walks into her latest lecture. He is nothing like what she expected. Then again, she wouldn’t know what to do if he was. Instead she finds herself tangled helplessly in a dangerous spider web. One in which she may not return from if things go very wrong. Can Kelton discover the truth behind this woman’s strange obsession, or will more than just her life be put on the line as the truth beings to unravel before their very eyes?

I am always thrilled beyond measure to wander deeper into this fascinating world. Nothing is ever as it seems, and the journey of Fate is equal parts joy as it is pain. Their lives are massively intriguing, and each dragon king proves to be a stunning character who will never fail to make you feel and dream. I love how the journey to their mate is never one they consciously take, but rather one that they find themselves tripping into. Fate can move in many ways and through anyone, but she never be denied, and she should never be ignored. Doing so will bring out more than just misfortune. The one who dares to push it away will only realize when it’s too late the treasure that they carelessly tossed aside.

Donna Grant has upped her game in this latest addition to her devastatingly fascinating Dragon King series! While never letting up on the tension and mystery, she continues to build the suspense like a seasoned genius that she is and lays the groundwork for the next phase of her brilliant master plan. She is a true master, and I love to sit at her feet with each book and soak in the beauty and the darkness and the surprises at each turn. I devoured this book, and I am dying for the next part of this phenomenal masterpiece!

4.5 stars

Book 16? I think it is in the Dark King series, Fever felt a little like a transition book. Grant spent the first handful of chapters catching everyone up on what’s been happening with this current story arc, and yes it’s a lot, while introducing Bernadette and Keltan, this story’s main couple. However, everyone from the Reapers, Dark and Light Fae, to the Dragon Kings and their mates had a moment-or more-and that’s when the story REALLY started taking off in directions that left me thinking “I wasn’t expecting that/I didn’t see this coming/I can’t believe that just happened!”

All I can say is if you’ve been wanting to jump into the Dark King world, Fever would be the perfect book to start with! There’s plenty of information to catch you up on where things stand now before delving into an jam-packed story and then giving teasers into the next arc. Who wouldn’t want to spend a few hours with these amazing dragons?!

I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced reader copy of this book from Netgalley and St. Martins. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

Donna Grant did it again with Fever. I loved reading about the Dragon Kings again, it's like meeting an old friend again and catching up with them. The only problem that I had with this book was that I now have to wait ages to read what is going to happen next, I would really have loved to start reading on the next book immediately. I just loved all the characters and how everyone rallied around the ones that needed it most. Brilliant writing as always and I am really glad that I get to read Donna Grant. I wonder what is install for us next?
Loved the book!!!!

This is a series I have loved and read for years. YEARS. So to finally get somewhere again after Mikkel is reallllly nice.

I did have a hard time with the couple though. Their relationship didn’t feel genuine to me. There was something about the way they interacted. Bernadette knew. Hell of a lot more than any other Mate but her blind trust in everything just irked me. Even Keltan’s questioning of everything made me mad. I think I’m just so used to having to see the Mates learn and grow that this was just not enough for me.

At times I had a hard time with the story. It seemed like one thing popped up and all of a sudden the Kings knew exactly what was wrong... please, no. They say they’re not all knowing yet that is EXACTLY what it felt like!

Once it got to the action, of the violent type, I was back in the game. This delivered everything I’ve been wanting and sooooo much more. While my heart hurts after this, I can say I’m happy again with this series. It’s been a long road and while at times it seemed slow, it was worth it!

I can’t wait for more, especially Rhi. She needs all the goodness she can get!

ARC received for review

4.5 stars

Another great Dragon King novel. Bernadette...never trust the UB!tch. I love how willing she was to go with Kelton and trust him.

There's so much, but I don't want to give anything away...someone is found, there's a battle and people die (but where are the bodies), and who is this mysterious Melissse.

What I didn't like, again don't wanna say to much, but really Bernadette, I don't agree with your reason.

This is another great book in the Dragon Kings. I have read each book in this series and have loved them all. There is so much suspense, romance, and wonderful characters. I can not wait till the next book in this series comes out. My customers hope this series does not end

Hot, Hot, Hot! The tension is building! War with the Queen of the Light Fae is on the horizon, but can Rhi win? Will she succeed with the help of the Dragon Kiings and Dark Fae? Where is Con at a time like this? Questions are answered, biggest battle since the Fae wars will arrive, but who will reign victoriously? Usaeil? Rhi? Con? Balladyn?

I received an arc copy of this book from NetGalley and the publisher for my honest review. Bernadette was a well thought of anthropologist who seemed to go off the deep end and is now giving lectures on the real ness of dragons. Keltan was a dragon king who was tasked with solving the problem of Bernadette exposing their secrets. After meeting there seems to be more to the story and you find out how Usaeil is involved with the situation. After a lot of action between the many characters there is some resolution.. This is a continuation of the Dragon King series with some crossover elements from the Reaper series that leads up to the culmination between the evil light queen Usaeil and Rhi, unfortunately the big battle seemed to take up more of the story than the relationship between Bernadette and Keltan. There is however finally some answers that are reached ( though more questions are also presented). This book was good, but not as good as others in the series. I highly recommend reading the other books in the series for a greater appreciation of the story. 4 stars

Bernadette was once an accomplished anthropologist. But now...she's essentially a laughing stock. She has been sucked into the world of Dragons and has become obsessed. But her obsession could lead to annihilation for an entire species.

Keltan has been alive for a long, long, long time. He has seen humans come and go and mostly he is happy with his lot. But Con is still missing, Ubitch is still causing mayhem wherever she goes and now a meddling human could open up the Dragon Kings World to outsiders!

Bernadette may be incredibly smart but she is also naive and the most open-book person ever! Keltan has obviously being paying attention during his long life - cook for a woman! There are lots of OMG moments, WTH's and let's just say someone has their come-to-Jesus reckoning!

For centuries, the Dragon Kings have lived among mortals, forsaking their true selves. But for Kelton, hiding in the realm of shadows and existing only in the world of dreams is no longer an option. A human woman claims to know that he, like other dark warriors of his kind, is real. When I started reading I couldn't put it down. Donna Grant is magnifysent and amazing writer.I cannot wait to read more of there books.Keep up the great work.You should definitely read this book.Can't wait for the next book.

So much going on in the book So. Much. Much bigger than just Keltan and Bernadette. Keltan is a Dragon King who doesn’t want to fall in love and have a mate. Bernadette is an anthropologist-turned-cryptozoologist who is intent on proving that Dragons are real. Keltan is sent to find out what she knows and the sparks fly from there. Who has set Bernadette on this journey to expose Dragons and why? Donna Grant has such a way of creating a story that ties into the bigger story. Fever doesn’t disappoint. Just when you think one thing is taken care of another takes its place. Yeah, a lot in this book but I don’t want to give away any spoilers so just let me say this: this story will be coming to an end soon, so for those of you who haven’t enjoyed this world created by Ms. Grant, I highly recommend you start at the beginning and enjoy the ride! I received a free ARC from #netgalley to enjoy and review #Fever
