This story is about a dragon named Fearghus, who mostly just wants to be left alone in his cave. he's rather grumpy so most dragons leave him be. Fearghus gets pulled out of his cave when he hears fighting and he finds a warrior woman that's been gravely injured but still faces death bravely.

Annwyl the bloody is the illegitimate sister to the King...a very bad King. Her father didn't treat her well but he did bring her to live in the palace which caused her brother to hate her. When their father died, her brother tried to force her into a political marriage but she escaped and became the leader of a revolution. Now he's determined to kill her.

Annwyl is badly injured and would have died if not for Fearghus saving her. He allows her to stay with him while she's recovering and quickly discovers that she has no fear of him and she intrigues him. As she recovers, he offers to get her more training but dragons aren't supposed to show human they can shift so he when he turned human to train her further in swordplay, he didn't tell her it was him. This causes some problems because Annwyl finds her self extremely attracted to the Knight that's training her but falling in love intellectually with the dragon. So this causes some drama that obviously comes to a head but does get worked past. Annwyl is able to deal with her brother and win the Kingdom and after a bit more angst, Annwyl and Fearghus are together and starting a HEA.

Overall, this was a pretty good story. I really liked both Annwyl and Fearghus and liked seeing them get together. My only complaint it that there was some use of the "I'm leaving you for your own protection" plot tool...it annoyed me a bit but thankfully it was gotten past. Overall, I liked the story and characters very much.

This is the story of Rhiannon and Bercelak's mating. Bercelak has a high position in the Queen's army and has always had a thing for Rhiannon, the princess. When the Queen offers Bercelak Rhiannon as a mate, he accepts because it's what he's wanted and worked for for years. Unfortunately, Rhiannon isn't an easy dragoness to woo and Bercelak really has his work cut out for him. He makes good progress and Rhiannon does end up realizing that maybe they'd be good together. Unfortunately, the Queen is a bitch and tries to use Bercelak as a tool to control/break her daughter, not realizing that he's always wanted Rhiannon and would never follow that command. Action has to be taken and in the end, things are nicely settled and Rhiannon and Bercelak are starting and HEA together.

I really liked this one and almost gave it 5 stars. Rhiannon is a real bitch at times but I really loved seeing her soften little by little. I really loved the fact that she allowed herself to realize that Bercelak could be a good mate for her and not fight him just to be contrary or on principle. Bercelak was tough but he just knew what he wanted and was willing to do whatever was necessary to get it. Overall, I really liked the characters and thought the story was really good and engaging.

* note - I listened to the audio version of this book and the narrator did a good job.

Dragon Actually Dragon Kin Book 1 GA Aiken Books Reviews

Most of the time when starting a new series the first book usually isn't as good as the following books but I must admit I really enjoyed this story so much. It's about a young girl named Anwyll I think is how they spelled and thats one other thing I don't usually read books when I can barely pronounce the characters name and this series definitely has some really crazy names but anyways Anwyll is leading a rebellion against her brother the King and as shes fighting off the last few men one manages to wound her and she realizes she's probably about to die so she's going to take as many of her brothers men with her as she can but after she kills off the one that wounded her she turns to call out to the rest to find them standing their looking over her scared and when she looks up she sees the belly of a dragon and before she falls to the ground she challenges the dragon before passing out and the dragon is intrigued by the strange human and decideds to help her calling in his sister Moyfrd the witch to help heal her and as she's healing she becomes very close to the dragon and the dragon also becomes very close to her and he decides he can't bare the thought of her facing her brother without him trying to help in anyway he can so he tells her he will arrange for her to meet with a knight so she can train with him so she will be battle ready when the time comes but little does Anwyll know that the Knight really is Fhergus the Destroyer changed into his human form Anywyll has no idea because it's a very guarded secret among Dragons that the humans must not know they can change forms but the more and more the Knight trains with Anwyll the more attatched Ferghus becomes to the human and knows he would do anything to protect her and keep her with him but will she accept him once she finds out he's been lying to her about who he truly is? I have many very funny highlights from this book if you would like to check them out to see what you have to look forward to feel free to check them out if you're on Goodreads )
Dragon Actually is the first book of G. A. Aiken's (Shelly Laurenston) dragon kin series. It is enjoyable, but is not the best book in the series. This book introduces us to Feargus and Anwyl. Feargus is a giant bad tempered black dragon who likes nothing better than to be left alone. Anwyl is a human woman leading an army against her crazy bother.

The real fun begins when we meet Feargus' family. These dragons are ridiculous. They are a very loving family but fight constantly. Each one has a very distinct personality. The series really takes off with book 3, What a Dragon Should Know.

The violence is over the top, almost cartoon violence, but Anwyl is surprisingly sweet for a warlord. The characters this author writes always have big vibrant personalities. They are not subtle, but they are a lot of fun.
Best book I have read in a while. I don't know how Aiken does it, but somehow this author can make you identify with the dragons, and you don't care that they see humans as tasty snacks. And that's so wrong, right? Annwyll the bloody, a warrior princess is so mean and yet she has little choice. It is that or die. Definitely will read this one again when I wish I can be politically incorrect and tell everyone to get lost and leave me alone. Annwyll and her dragons will brighten your mood on the darkest day.
This book has 2 stories in it, #1 Dragon Actually (which is described in the blurb) and #2 Chains & Flames. Chains & Flames is the story of how princess Rhiannon got mated to Bercelak which really should be Dragon Kin 0.3 since Rhiannon and Bercelak are already together in Dragon Kin #0.4, Dragon on Top. The hero from this book's first story, Dragon Actually, is Fearghus, who is the oldest son of Rhiannon & Bercelak from Chains & Flames.
