Danburn English is the ninth earl of the English castle. He and his dragon alter ego have been on this earth for a very long time. Danburn is accustomed to his orders being followed to the letter, no questions asked, so when this feisty young woman bucks his authority, he is beyond angry.
Kendrick Barrera can’t seem to get caught up. Every time she turns around, her sister is in trouble again. Now, because of her sister’s new mess, she’s being evicted and has nowhere to go.
Danburn’s intentions were to defend her honor, but when Kendrick intervenes, she steps in front of a punch intended for her mouthy landlord. Now Danburn has to step back and take a good long look at himself, and he doesn’t much like what he sees.
Kendrick doesn’t care for the overbearing lord of the manor and makes no bones about telling him so, either. No one, especially him, is going to tell her what to do or how to act or dress.
There is something about the feisty woman that has touched Danburn’s heart. She has a rare honesty and bravery that has him take notice. A woman like that is hard to find and should be protected and cherished. The chemistry is there. They’ve both felt it, but controlling his mouth just might get in the way of winning Kendrick’s heart….

Fletcher Danburn English, the ninth Earl of the English castle was a dragon shifter. While shifting into his dragon and swimming in the lake on his property, as was his custom, he came across a young woman who had been fired upon and hit, ultimately falling into the lake. Pulling her into an area to keep her hidden until he could get her into the castle and have her tended. Honestly, Danburn is a bit of a high-handed, arrogant snob as is his man Noah. Kendrick has been physically, mentally, and emotionally abused by her family her entire life, and yet, even after everything she’s gone through when her sister calls to tell her to come to help her once again because she’s being chased and shot at, Kendrick immediately drops everything to bail her out. If she can find her, that is. It is a great storyline with characters that have enough personality flaws to be relatable, a plot of good vs. evil that kept the suspense moving, and chemistry that kept my heart palpitating. Normally Ms. Barton’s series contains brothers but Danburn is an only child so I’m more than a bit curious how Everette will tie into the series.
