Molten Heart

MOLTEN HEART A Fire Dragon Love Story The human realm has always been off-limits for the fire drakes of the Pacific colony. Hidden on a carefully protected island chain, Dax Hyland has dreamed for the last hundred years of his coming of age celebration and sets his sights on Hawaii for his one and only excursion into the human realm. Volcanologist Dr. Jane Calman has been monitoring strange activity on the Big Island of Hawaii. As if someone had put a stopper in the volcano, the constant lava flows have all but ceased their two-decade trickle toward the ocean, and now the mountain is threatening a full blown eruption. Dax had been warned to stay away from humans, but from the moment he laid eyes on Jane, something awoke within him. She doesn’t know he’s a dragon, and he would prefer to keep it that way. But when he discovers another of his kind tampering with the volcano and threatening to destroy Jane’s island home, Dax will have to reveal his true form, and risk losing her forever, to stop the other dragon.
