Book Beginnings on Friday is now hosted by Rose City Reader. The Friday 56 is hosted at Freda's Voice. Check out the links above for the rules and for the posts of the participants each week. Don’t dig for your favorite book, the coolest, the most intellectual. Use the CLOSEST.
Beginning:
When Saba Watanabe was four years old, she woke screaming from a nightmare. In it black smoke pursued her, thick inky tendrils that threatened to devour her at every step. She ran and ran, her small legs pumping, her straight bangs flopping into her eyes and blinding her.Friday 56:
Then Saba saw it, hanging out from the back of his jacket—a thin, scaly, lizardlike tail with a barbed and pointed end.I am spotlighting The Black Dragon by Allyson James. This one has been languishing on TBR mountain since 2008. Here is the description from Amazon:
"Axel," Saba called. "Your tail is showing."
Scorching new romance from the author of Dragon Heat.
When Saba Watanabe is attacked by white dragons in human form on the streets of San Francisco, the only man she can turn to for help is the dangerously seductive Malcolm, a black dragon who once made Saba his love slave. But it's Saba who must use her rising powers to save Malcolm-and all of his kind.
I wonder if her nightmare will be prophetic. Sounds like it and the book sounds exciting.
