Publisher's summary

Bloodlust and insanity rule my existence. As a fierce drakoni warrior, this strange new world I find myself in eats at my mind until there is nothing left. There is no light or clarity...until she arrives. I save her life, plucking her from the sky.

From that point on, she is mine.

But the human I have chosen for my mate - Sasha - is fragile and wounded. She does not trust me and fears my presence. I will not give up, though. I will do anything to give her my fires and bond us both in body and spirit. How can I convince her that I want nothing more than her happiness if she will not let me touch her?

How does a dragon woo a human?

Great series, book 2!

I'm thoroughly enjoying this series by Ruby Dixon! The story of an event the people of Earth call "The Rift" where dragon shifters end up suddenly on Earth from another dimension and their need for human females to keep them from madness has a unique flair. The sarcastic and witty conversations that the hero and heroine have make the audiobook so much fun to listen to. Great narration and I'm looking forward to the next book!

much better

this book was way better than the first book and if there's a third book I will purchase

Do you like spineless women?

If you enjoy women who are weak, barely competent, and think things like, "...time to be brave. I hate being brave..." then this is the series for you!

The first book in the series was a bit of work to get through, being filled with tired sexist tropes and a heroine who couldn't decide if she was an independent adult capable of surviving and protecting others in a post apocalyptic world, a blithering idiot who lost any sense of tactics soon as a man spoke to her, or a closet submissive desperate to cede herself to a domineering male. Nothing wrong with any of them except when they're all crammed into one character and you're expected to suspend disbelief. At least the dragon was internally consistent and had a massive desire for consent.

This second book....nope. The protagonist was even worse. I only got through half of the second chapter before mentally throwing it at the wall.

It says nothing good about humanity that a romance story can be built around the bones of a woman having to be nice to and put out for a male simply to avoid violence and rape.

progress!

I was a bit worried when things happened rather quickly in this book, but it turns out that it's completely warranted. I know that one of the things that frustrated a lot of readers with the first book was the lack of information about where the dragons came from. this answers a lot more questions, and yet gives many more.

Increase in story

The first book could've definitely begin a one shot story but now with added details of the second I'm hooked. With a constant supply of dragons needing a good mate and a story that keeps feeding the listener/reader little tid bits, it only adds to the appeal.

This books epilogue is awesome is my book.

more dragons

Another great story. The story line was great. Learned more about where the dragons came from. look forward to the next story. The narration was great.

Sasha and Dahk - All men bad, dragons good

I love Ruby Dixon’s Ice Planet Barbarian series; that one’s full of sexy, blue suede devils who hook up with human ladies in campy, funny, naughty fashion. I also like dragons, fantasy, and dystopian post-apocalypse stories. So, I thought this series would be great. But, even though the first three books in this series are free as part of Audible Escapes, I’m only finding them two star “okay” for a few reasons:

* The emerging trend is that all human men are douche bags who prey on the weak, especially by mentally, physically, and sexually abusing women. The idea that the only good man for a woman is a dragon is depressing. I’m not seeing hope for humanity or society- just HEAs and hope for the specific pairs of dragon-lady couples.
* The supposedly strong, intelligent lady leads are amazingly obtuse and rather selfish and superficial when it comes to figuring out their dragon-human relations.
* In the IPB series, the language barrier issue gets solved more quickly, but here it seems every book will require hours of “what’s that Lassie, are you going to eat me for dinner or do you want to be my mate” miscommunications.
* Primitive conditions, raw meat, and lack of hygiene do not make for sexy good times. How hard can it be to give our couples a city to restore so our couples can have hot showers and soft beds?

I think I’d enjoy these more if these books were to get cut down by a few hours, there were some good human males, and the story veered more to light, campy, sexy good times. I’ll get book 3 because it’s free, but if it turns out to be more of the same “everything outside the couple-bubble sucks” story, I will not be purchasing anything else in the series.

Sasha & Dakh.

Another good addition to the story, but I had wished for a bit more action. I had a good chuckle over the prep for the perfect picnic, it was too funny, especially since you knew Dack was screwing it all up. There was a little hiccup in the recording at about hour 4:10 the audio repeats about 5 minutes of the story. Shasha was border line annoying though and her pity party was a bit much that she had towards the end of the book. Don’t read this if you are into serious post-apocalyptic details, because this one has holes. But if you in for a sexy romance, this one is it. Again, it this series has some pretty hot sex scene, and again I think some of them could have been edited out. I do look forward to the others in this series. I like the narrators.

better than the 1st one!!!

I really like this book. the story and the characters are so much deeper then the ones in the first one. great job! THANK you to the author and the voice actors.

Better and worse than the first

The drama that developed towards the end of the book was flimsy and annoying to me. I almost wanted to stop listening. Also the male narrator sounds too much like a serial killer for me to get into his character without being mildly to moderately creeped out. He did seem more dimensional though than the dragon in book one.

Very good

I’m loving this new world from the wonderful mind of Ruby Dixon. Good narration brings this interesting story to life. Lots of wise cracks in this one kept me giggling.

Getting better

Enjoyed this book much more than the last. I liked the FMC she was very believable. We got more of the overall story which I am interested to see develop.

Fire in His Kiss

Very good story and good performances. I am really recommend this books for anyone to listen.

A hidden gem

I liked the first book but I loved this one. There are moments I laughed so loud. The mixture of crass humour is what I enjoyed the most. Though I had to speed the narration the original was a bit frustrating and slow. Once that was sorted a great read.

Good overarching story

I hate to say it, but I was more interested in the overarching story than the MCs. This book is fine as a free audiobook but it’s nothing special. This author has much better books out there.

Good story

l loved the story, the narrators did a fabulous job. I would recommend this book.

Love them❤️

I’ve listened to the first two books, now book three is ready to go. I can’t wait who needs TV!!!

what a brilliant story

I'm really enjoying this series. the characters are brought to life by narrator's interoperation. can't wait to hear book three

Wonderful story, wonderful performance

This was even better than the first book. The plot is getting more interesting too
Loved Dakh. He was so funny. Laugh out loud funny
Can’t wait to read the next
