This is the first book I have read by this author, and I enjoyed it very much. The main story Dragon Actually was well written, with great characters, the action was wonderful, and at times I was laughing at the witty banter between the characters. The foundation was wonderfully laid for stories to come in this series. The best thing for me in this novel, was yes Annwyl and Ferghus fought the attraction, and the feelings they developed for each other at first but the inevitable relationship happened closer to the middle of the book compared to about 99.9% of other romance novels where it is drug out sometimes till the last chapter of the book. I just felt this gave the reader a look at the couple in a whole different setting, and perspective of the two as now one, from the way they engaged and interacted with each other, as well as dealt with other things going on in the book now working together, as apposed to they fell in love are together and don't hear much about it in future books. 
 The included Novella Flames and Chains, I loved. You get a glimpse and a small dose of interaction with both Bercerek and Queen Rhiannon in the full length included novel. This changed my opinion of the two characters totally, I loved the back story of Ferghus's parents, and learning what the history was behind some of the comments made regarding them. It was a quick read but was full of action, suspense, and haughty pull no punches attitude from both, but never did it feel like the story was rushed. I am now a big fan of this author and can't wait to start the next book in the series About a Dragon! Highly recommended first book and short story.
