Dragons, dragons,
everywhere! My obsession with dragons never ceases to amaze me. After
publishing three 1NS dragon stories, the forth and final one is now here!
Dragon’s Bond is set in 1952 San
Francisco, and it’s the story of Shen Li and Lien Long who were the beginning founders of the Double Dragon’s Blood legacy.
Caught in the grips of
tragedy, this parahuman couple and their torrid love affair brought about a
scandalous conclusion neither thought they would survive! Years later, they
will come face to face with their past. Will they get their happily ever after?
You will have to read to find out…
Without giving too much
away, I wanted to ask our readers, what is your favorite kind of HEA in the
1Night Stand series? “Happily for now,” is that good enough? Is a happily ever
after too much to grasp in this series of 1Night Stands? What are some of your
favorite 1NS endings?

Dragon’s Bond Blurb:
In 1952, it’s not proper for
a woman to chase after a man, but Lien Long is no ordinary woman. Shattered by
his abandonment after their single night of passion ends in tragedy, she
travels from a life of sexual servitude in Shanghai to San Francisco to chase
her career, her dreams, and her one true love. Armed with new knowledge of her
dark lineage and at the encouragement of a colleague, she enlists the help of
Madame Eve to arrange a 1 Night Stand, in hopes to find her way into the arms
of her soul mate once more.
Cursed with an ancient
legacy he knew nothing about, Shen Li flees to San Francisco after the
devastating death of his twin brother. Tormented by the guilt and shame of his
indulgence in lust and his longing he cannot diminish for his beloved, he
accepts the advice of his mentor and boss, to contact the 1 Night Stand
services. He seeks an escape of passion to release his sins of the past and
move on with his life. What awaits Shen is eye-opening truth about the life he
had forsaken. Will he find the night of fiery paradise he hopes for?
Excerpt:
Madame Evangeline,
Only once,
have I tasted the sweetness of divine passion, and it cost me my soul and my
brother’s life. That night will haunt me forever. Since devastation struck, by
the fate and shame my selfish desire brought upon my family, I have rejected
the love I pine for.
It is with a
heavy heart I confess, my will wanes, but I can never have her again. My ache
for my beloved grows with each day that passes. Although this request will
never diminish my desire for her, it is my hope, to at least alleviate the
torment of my lust that lingers, so that I may move forward and release my sins
of the past.
I left China
for my job to begin a new life here in San Francisco. Perhaps, if I indulge in
the arms of another woman for a single night, I can at
last move on. After great consideration of a close friend’s suggestion, I seek your help, to be
matched for a 1Night Stand. My only request is for a woman with jade green
eyes. It is the one trait of her eternal beauty I wish I could admire a final
time.
Kindest
Regards,
Shen Li

Personally, I'm good with either type of ending for this series. I know going in that the story will be abbreviated and even rushed so I don't expect shall we call it a more realistic ending for the time frame. I do need the story to have development and closure though and not just be a quick hot snippet.
ReplyDeleteThis series sounds really good. Thanks for sharing about it.
I can't wait to read. ;)
