In the Black Sky Mountains of Colorado, Sheriff Derek Reaves has worked hard to maintain his quiet rural life. Now thanks to a paranoid tourist who swears he spotted a fairytale monster, hundreds of crazy supernatural and alien seekers are flooding Winchester for their own encounter of the bizarrest kind.
Unfortunately one beautiful news lady is a lot savvier, nosier and tenacious than all the others. If he’s not careful, Cryss Logan may very well uncover the dangerous secret Derek has hidden all these years, threatening not only his safe, peaceful life, but his very existence.
Unless he can find a way to stop her first.

My Review:
4 Out Of 5 Stars
Genre: Mystery, Romance, Supernatural, Suspense--
I will admit that I started the story expecting to get a fun, easy paranormal romance- but that was not really what this was all about. Instead, Hunted by the Dragon was a mystery, with tons of twists and discoveries, developed characters, and engaging plot that left me wanting more, showing that this hidden dragon world has secret depths left to uncover! Sure, there was moments of romance, but it did not feel like the focus of the story, more just the icing on a paranormal mystery cake.
The one thing that I wish the story had was more time for the couple to be happy together. Without being too spoilery, basically the couple is together for a few days of happy bliss, fights and breaks up, bad stuff happens, amazing rescue stuff occurs and then the book ends. I would have loved a happy few chapters where the couple is together and I get to see it, instead of just knowing that they are together.
Overall, this was an interesting start to what I can tell is a super complicated dragon world that I will very much like to read the rest of the books when they become available. I think this is the perfect read for anyone who likes dragons, shapeshifter stories, paranormal romances and action/mystery.
AMAZON Best Selling author ADDISON CARMICHAEL is a Paranormal Romance junkie. Love is a mystical, magical thing to her, and she loves writing and living vicariously through her endless PNR stories. Whether it be alpha male werewolves, fierce dragons, panthers and other shifters, sizzling hot vampires, or illusive sorcerers who will magically make your dreams come true, her imagination is bubbling up several stories after another.
“I’m often asked why I write this genre,” Addison commented. “The truth is, I love creating unique and fantastical worlds where anything is possible. I’m in love with love and all its possibilities for both adventure and total bliss. This is my avenue to live in these worlds and become the adventurous heroine who falls madly in love with her compliment super hot, supernatural hero. Worlds I love to visit again and again.”
As a literature major, Addison also enjoys weaving classic themes into her books, yet keeping the fun and folklore true to each story and character. While paying strict attention to the tropes of each myth, she also finds unique ways to create new ones in order to make each story as fresh, realistic and plausible as possible.
Besides reading and writing (which are blissful addictions), Addison loves the mountains and ocean, and enjoys hiking, camping, horseback riding and star-gazing whenever she can manage it. But reading, writing and storytelling is and will always be the “true love” of her life.

Oh, I like the "swirling" dragon! And his "come and get it" face.
