Tipping the Scales by Mandy M. Roth

Paranormal Dragon Shifter Romance

Stop Dragon My Heart Around Series

 

Zarek Dracodomus has one slight problem. If he doesn't mate by the end of the year, he'll never have sex again. When he sees a tall seductress, he knows she's the one. This headstrong sex goddess manages to turn the tables on the immortal playboy and Zarek finds himself racing to beat time, not only to remain sexually active but to win Keren's heart as well. Little does he know he's been yanked out of his tedium by a woman sworn to kill him and all of his kind.

 

Warning: This book contains dragon shifting badass dude who always gets what he wants, a chick who would just as soon kick his ass than kiss it, mind blowing sex and people who aren’t afraid to speak their mind, regardless the language used.

 

Tipping the Scales Excerpt

 

The second Gennie disappeared someone slid their arms around Keren’s waist. Her gut reaction was to rip the unwanted added appendages off both herself and the person. Holding back, she took a deep breath in. She fought the urge to vomit as the man’s smell assailed her.

“Mmm, you must be a model,” he said. “A woman as tall as you with an ass like that can’t be anything but.”

You’ve got to be kidding me.

Keren’s breath caught in her throat as the man slid his hands over her hips. Nothing about him excited her. His hot breath was laced with the smell of liquor and the liberties he was taking weren’t acceptable. Twisting around, she glared at the man. His hair was slicked back from his pale face with so much gel that she wasn’t sure if it was sandy blond or just caked full of stuff. It looked as though it would provide ample protection from head injury in the event of a bike or in-line skating accident. It had to be hard enough to bounce anything off of. If he didn’t stop touching her, she’d see if his helmet hair would reflect her foot.

He gave her a lecherous smile. She narrowed her gaze, doing her best not to strike out at him and knock it away. It was hard. “I’d really rather not dance right now. Thanks though.”

“Tu as un beau nez.” His horrible pronunciation of the French language only added to his creep factor rating. His choice of phrases enhanced that tenfold. The man was a lounge lizard extraordinaire and was on her last nerve. Never a good place to be.

Deciding that she’d placated him enough, Keren smiled, still resisting the urge to ram her fist down his throat. If he dared to leer at her like that again, she wouldn’t hold anything back. “Does that normally work for you?”

“What?” he asked, caressing her arm with the back of his hand and making her feel as if something was crawling on her. She shuddered. His touch sickened her. Often demons had that effect on her. Keren wasn’t sensing any present but that didn’t mean they weren’t there. Every now and then, a demon would slip past her natural, inborn alarm system.

“Does what work?” he asked.

“Telling a woman she has a beautiful nose with a piss poor accent.”

His mouth opened but nothing came out. Thinking she’d bested him, Keren turned her back to him to head to a table. He seized hold of her ass, digging his fingers into her cheek hard enough to leave a bruise. All too late, she realized that he was certainly no ordinary human male.
