Rise for Her
Milana Jacks - 2018
To save humanity from extinction during the new Ice Age, four elemental dragons are tasked to find spirits and return Earth to its natural state. Ten years ago, I thought a willowy woman in white “gifting” me and my three buddies with an elemental beast was a tequila-fueled dream — until I woke up as a blue dragon, supposedly with control over water. Except I can’t seem to raise so much as a ripple in the iceberg-choked sea. Worse, unlike my friends, I’m covered in scales.Most alien Cy know not to visit my domain uninvited. But this intruder isn’t cyborg or alien. She’s a human female seeking protection. I should turn her down. I should send her home. But her innocent touch arouses my beast. And he’s not letting her go…[This book was apparently previously titled Rise the Seas (Ice Age Dragon Brotherhood, #1) and also Rise for Her (Winter Dragon Brotherhood, #1).]
