He’s trying to protect his heart… 
She’s a shell of the girl she once was…
Can he chase away the demons threatening to destroy her?

Mackenzie Delano craves control. After tragedy strikes during her freshman year of college, she compensates for the helplessness she felt by micro-managing every aspect of her life, from her business life to her social life…to her love life. But she wasn’t expecting to cross paths with a mysterious man who seems to invade her every thought.

Tyler Burnham has been living his life with one rule in mind…never fall in love. Focusing solely on his career, he is able to remain a detached observer of life… Until a case is dropped in his lap, forcing him to form an intimate relationship with a sharp-tongued woman in order to obtain the location of a man deemed an enemy of the State.

When Tyler finds himself falling for Mackenzie, will he be able push his feelings aside and recover the information he needs? Or will he put the mission and their lives at risk to follow his heart?

It is not necessary to have read that series in order to read this duet, but it will contain a mild spoiler from the third book in the Beautiful Mess series, Gorgeous Chaos.***

    The title indicates “dragon” yet there is no mention of paranormal stuff or dragons. The book was way too long it could’ve been condensed into 400-500 pages. The story sounded good but the book sucked. I was able to skip 30+ pages and not be confused! I hate liars and Tyler is a liar! I’d think Mackenzie would rip Tyler a new one for lying the whole time since she’s a control freak! Just another cliche typical book where the woman just rolls over and accepts the males lies and deceptions. 🙄
  • A book you fall in love with

    Wow the writing in this book is beautiful. You can feel the love the characters have for each other and the struggle Tyler has between the choice he has to make. Can't wait to read book two!

    Most people don't know that Tyler is secretly working for his family's private security company. That he has been scoping out an asset for the past six months. Least of all her. His target. He is only meant to make her fall for him. To make her trust him implicitly so that she shares her deepest secrets and the intel he has been sent for. He never thought he would fall for her too. Mackenzie lives her life in a well planned out and organized manner. She has to because she simply can't face any heart break ever again. She doesn't have time for relationships but the night she meets Tyler changes everything. They fall fast and hard amidst numerous threats to Mackenzie. But the biggest threat of all may be to her heart. Oh. My. God. Move over Alexander because little brother has arrived and completely stolen the show. This story was just spectacular. It was filled to the brim with mystery and suspense and deceit plus lots and lots of steamy sexy times. While I absolutely enjoyed Ms. Leigh's Beautiful Mess Trilogy, I was not expecting to be so blown away by Tyler's story. I am still trying to wrap my brain around it all. Despite his deception, I love Tyler and I hurt for both him and Mackenzie. And I even hated Alexander a little bit at the end there - totally didn't see that one coming! It was all just so well written and even though I may think I know what is truly going on, I have a feeling that I am actually clueless. The truth could go in so many directions and I love that. I adored everything about this book and I am DYING for the next one to see how it all unravels. (Hint: cliffy alert)
