Treasured by the Dragon

If someone had told Dawn Chadwick that she'd be attending a play put on by children on a dragon-shifter's land a year ago, she would've said they were mad. However, her daughter Daisy has slowly worn Dawn down about her prejudices and she ends up volunteering to help with the play. She's to assist a recluse dragonman with the special effects. What she didn't count on was her daughter's meddling.Blake Whitby prefers working in a lab to being around people. He's a rare white dragon with a black spot, and the attention from a young age has made him hide from others. However, he's always had a weakness for children and agrees to help them with their play. What he didn't count on was meeting a beautiful human with a sense of humor and a heart-warming smile. His dragon wants her, but Blake holds back. At least until two kids make holding back impossible.While Dawn agrees to the mate-claim frenzy with Blake, there's no guarantee their pairing will work. And when Dawn's family threatens her happiness, Blake has to stand by his mate and fight for the family he never knew he wanted. Jessie Donovan wrote her first story at age five, and after discovering the Dragonriders of Pern series by Anne McCaffrey in junior high, realized that people actually wanted to read stories like those floating around inside her head. From there on out, she was determined to tap into her over-active imagination and write a book someday. After living abroad for five years and earning degrees in Japanese, Anthropology, and Secondary Education, she buckled down and finally wrote her first full-length book. While that story will never see the light of day, it laid the world-building groundwork of what would become her debut paranormal romance, Blaze of Secrets. Jessie loves to interact with readers, and when not traipsing around some foreign country on a shoestring, can often be found on Facebook and Twitter.
