I’ve read Marie Brennan’s NATURAL HISTORY OF DRAGONS and loved, loved, loved it. It’s really more of an alternate history/world book rather then a paranormal. The dragons aren’t magical, they’re just another animal in this world. The heroine is a young woman who longs to be a naturalist and study dragons but society considers that to be completely unsuitable for a “”victorian”” miss. Isabella is determined however and manages to get her wish. In a lot of ways Isabella reminded me of Amelia Peabody, though there isn’t as much caper stuff going on here. This is the first in a trilogy (? maybe more) so things may change for her romantically. Highly recommended.
I also enjoyed CRYSTAL COVE by Kleypas. This is the first of her new paranormal books where I thought the magical elements worked and were necessary to the plot.
Thanks for the listings. I’m really looking forward to reading Lisa Kleypas newest.
Sorry, should have wrote eagerly. English is not my native language.
I am eagarly waiting Elizabeth Hoyt’s Lord of Darkness.
Sarah MacLean has a book called One Good Earl Deserves A Lover that has been given great reviews by another romance website. I say this in case someone wants to check it out.
