Then my sister died in a pile of black ash, leaving me with a sword... and her destiny as dragon hunter. It turns out there's a whole other world out there filled with demons, dragons, and spirits. Now my job is to protect mortals - and I haven't got a <i>clue<\/i> what I'm doing. Then there's tattooed hotness Ian Iskander. Part dragon hunter and part demon, Ian's got some seriously creepy business associates and keeps trying to steal my sword. So why do we keep getting lost in hungry, crazy-hot kisses? Ian is the only person who can help me figure out who - and<i> what - <\/i>I am. But trusting a half-demon is dangerous... because when you play with dragon fire, someone <i>always<\/i> gets burned.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote><center><span class=\"ubb-buy\"><a

back and thought they were hilarious, and since I was in the mood for a quirky paranormal, I figured I&#8217;d pick up the first book in a new series by her. \u00a0Either my memory is faulty or my sense of humor has changed drastically, because there wasn&#8217;t much about this book that I liked.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cI am a dragon hunter,\u201d I told her with great dignity. \u201cWe are not woo-woo.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Much of the plot was a confusing mess. \u00a0One item, for example &#8211; dragon hunters don&#8217;t actually hunt dragons, but demons, and they&#8217;re called that because they&#8217;re actually part demon and part dragon, with the dragon bit keeping the dark-leaning demon side in check. \u00a0Why or how they&#8217;re this way, I don&#8217;t know. \u00a0It didn&#8217;t help that the book\u00a0switched from Ronnie&#8217;s first-person POV to Ian&#8217;s third person POV frequently. \u00a0Ronnie has OCD, which I thought was well done for, oh, the first two chapters, and then was promptly forgotten unless it was dragged back out for comic relief or as an example of how Ian&#8217;s mere presence &#8220;fixed&#8221; her. \u00a0There&#8217;s also an annoying running gag about her writing a book about her experiences and whether her creative writing teacher would approve of various chapter titles, dialogue, the believability of various plot points&#8230; it just felt like it was trying much too hard to be funny. \u00a0This is the kind of book that has a wrath demon named Falafel, which sounds delightfully quirky on the surface but just got a bit old when they were trying to have serious conversations about, you know, the fate of the world and all that. \u00a0It felt, at times, like it was trying very hard to balance between being off the walls quirky and &#8220;oh no the world is doomed&#8221; and it just didn&#8217;t do either well.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201c[W]hat\u2019s the good in being a dragon hunter if you can\u2019t cover people in dragon fire and roast them alive?\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>While I enjoyed the first few chapters, the book started falling apart once Ronnie met Ian, and the instalust and subsequent instalove really turned me off. \u00a0I didn&#8217;t particularly like or sympathize with either character, and I found their relationship ridiculously unbelievable and unsexy. \u00a0I forced myself to read the last 25% in the hopes of clearing up the confusing plot points, but while some things became clearer, it didn&#8217;t really help the story as a whole. \u00a0Overall, this was just not my cup of tea at all.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;d read several books from Katie MacAlister&#8217;s Dark Ones series
