Publisher's summary

Half fae. Half dragon. All theirs.

Or so they say. I’m not really the Queen of Dragons, am I?

I’m just Lissa, a screwed-up ex-foster kid with a dangerous taste in men...and these four dragon shifters think my destiny is to save their world. Our assets: a can-do attitude, a hot rock, and me. What could go wrong?

When Drake walks out of a lake naked to rescue me from my terrifying ex, he turns my life upside-down. And that’s before his three gorgeous best friends crash through my ceiling. Turns out they’re battling to save all of dragonkind from extinction. Oh, and dragons are real, their magic is running empty, and there’s only one way they can recharge. It involves me, them, and the best night of my life.

I’m on board with this plan...if only the witch who's taken control of their ancestral home and my throne would stop hunting us down. When I’m thrown into the deep end, only quick thinking and my fiercely protective dragons can save me. But there’s no end to the secrets this world holds...and my past is one of them.

Either I become who I was born to be, or we all perish. It's time to embrace the flame.

Drake’s Flame is the first book in The Fae Dragon’s Harem, a paranormal reverse harem FMMMMM series with MM scenes. Book Two, Gale Force, is already available. So scroll up and start listening now, and dive into a whole new world of magic, danger, and passion...and more hot dragon shifters than you can shake a frankly unnecessary purple rabbit at.

That narrator though....

I actually enjoy the storyline and characters, but the voice the female narrator uses for the main character is just awful. She sounds utterly ridiculous and unbelievable. Some narrators make or break these audibles, andn this one totally makes it not worth a credit for me.

Meghan Kelly's narration

Could be better if she had made Queen Bliss' voice stronger , filled with less wonder and timidity as the character develops .

couldn't stop listening

the narrator's were amazing, the storyline was great! it makes me wish I had a harem of sexy dragons

A different take on world travel

The story starts on earth but ends up in a different world. You have fantasy, sci-fi and paranormal tones to the tale. Well written and a unique story and am hoping that In Future books to get more history about what caused the chain of events.
The male narrator was fantastic and on point. For me I felt the female was whining for most of it. There were a few parts that were awesome though. But don’t let that stop you from having a listen because that is me and not you!
Definitely an 18+ book with some intense scenes, that are multiple people as well as MM scenes. Happy reading!

Fast Paced Amazing Listen

This story does not take long at all to jump right into the main story and I love it! I went into this book pretty blind as to what it was about and I'm certainly glad I did. I had no preconceived notions as to what would possibly happen. This was my first book that had some MM, but it was done so tastefully that I was actually in love with all the love! I will definitely be continuing on in this series to discover more!

So good!

I loved this! The story line and the narration were fantastic! I can not wait for more from this series.

Adventure in finding your own freedom

This semi-world building fantasy will guide you in a journey of finding your own version of freedom. The main female character Lissa is in the human world when strange things start to happen and she is rescued by Drake and brought back to the world she belongs in. I liked that this was a semi- world building style of fantasy because it makes it easier to dive into the possibilities of what is happening in the story. No new language to learn though there are some names that are not familiar they are not difficult.
Though this is titled as Drake's Flame, you will get to know a little about the other dragons in this collection. I liked that there were chapters from other views and you were able to get a full picture of the situation and how this story is structured.

Performance - I wasn't in love with the voice Meghan Kelly used as a narrator at first, if felt very breathy and a bit whiney but as I progressed in the story it became more fluid and honestly upping the speed of the read even slightly took away some of the issues I had. Gregory Salinas offers a very deep and soulful voice which is of complete opposite from Meghan Kelly. Again changing the speed of the audio slightly helped to level everything out to a more well rounded listening experience.

The Female's Voice - Yikes

I don't generally leave reviews, but the female narrator's voice for this title was horrible. She sounded like she was unintelligent and constantly whining. The male voice was fine, but the other was like nails on a chalkboard. The story seemed to be okay, but it was hard to get past the narration.

My Thoughts on Drake's Flame

I thought this was a good paranormal romance, reverse harem series starter. I enjoyed the FMMMM aspect of the storyline and all the different personalities of the men. I liked the world building as well. It was set in an alternate realm and had a good basis laid out. The story had a very good steam level. Not all encompassing but solid. This book ends on a cliffhanger but it's to be expected when I knew this was a series starter. I'm looking forward to what's to come.

The narration however was five stars all the way. I loved Meghan Kelly's performance as usual as she always shows good emotion and has an overall tone that keeps me listening and far from bored. Gregory Salinas I've been hearing more and more lately and love his voice more every time. He had multiple POV and tones to show in this book and didn't disappoint.

Audio was fine, story wasn’t for me.

At first I wasn’t enjoying the female narrator but after a bit her whiny voice made sense… she was the voice of the MFC. The story was a little too much instalove for me, not my thing, which was sad cause the world / plot was interesting.
