PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
In the heady first Treasure of Paragon novel from Jack (the Knight Games series), an evil voodoo priestess curses Gabriel, an immortal dragon, and the only one who can save him is Raven, a human woman. When Gabriel appears in Raven's hospital room, she mistakes him for the avatar of death. Then he cures her cancer and bonds her to him for life. Shocked to find out he's a dragon, she reluctantly starts researching how to break the curse. She's initially afraid of his possessiveness, but quickly falls for him. As she learns about magic powers and paranormal entities, she realizes she absorbs any magic she touches. They begin to hope she'll find a way around the curse by developing this gift, which she didn't know she had and Gabriel suspects she's his fated mate as well. Although the possessive dragon nature will be too much for some, fans of paranormal romance will get swept up in this quick, steamy romance and the intriguing mystery wrapped in magic. (BookLife)

Amazing
You had me from the beginning!! You was able to make me cry , laugh, and worry . I look forward to reading this entire series, and what ever other books you have written.
Great read!
This was a great read. I loved the theme and saving the heroine how she was saved makes me want to believe magic could work like that too!
Curses
When I first started the book I did not like it and almost did not finish reading the book. I read the entire book and it was interesting but I found Raven was a bit over dramatic and whining. Some of the story was drawn out. It was okay but I could have used my imagination for the very elaborate sex scenes.
Now the good parts of the story included Gabriel and his dilemma but he drew out the whole bit about Kristina. The bonding part was a nice touch and Duncan, Richard and Agnes played parts but not very big.
Will I read the next in the series probably not but others might enjoy it.
