"Will Alyx be able to win the heart of his destined bride?"

Alyx is a Prime Warrior, from an alien race with extraordinary psychic abilities. The Prime Warriors have been sent from their home world to Earth to fight the evil that threatens both worlds. Alyx has waited seemingly forever for his bond mate, an Earth woman, to be reincarnated after an early death tore her from him before they could be fully bonded. He senses when she is reborn, but knows not where she is, or even her full name. Nothing will stop him from finding her.

Lynn Carstairs didn't ask for the psychic gifts she was born with. In fact, she resents their presence in her life, wanting nothing more than to be an average young woman. Instead, Lynn uses her powers to help fight the evil that seems determined to overtake Earth. She is battling to protect a special client from such evil when the Prime Warriors are sent to aid in the defense. The leader of the warriors, Alyx, is strangely familiar to Lynn. She finds herself drawn to him as to no other man. But he's an alien and not for the likes of her. Right?

Alyx must tread carefully and not give in to his desire to snatch Lynn away from danger. The bond will not be complete unless she accepts him openly of her own free will. Not one used to failure, Alyx has to try to woo his woman, to convince her that she is his. Lynn is the most incredibly stubborn woman he's ever met, which both arouses and frustrates him. How can he protect her and share the powers that he longs to give her, when she turns away at every opportunity?

Readers should be aware that DRAGON PRIME and the Prime Warriors are closely linked to the Shadow Warriors series. This novel may not make total sense unless the reader first peruses the two Shadow Warriors tales already released. Don't expect the evil to be fully conquered in this novel; there are many more stories to tell before the finale. Filled with Ms. Leigh's well-known formula of sensual tension and explicit sex, this paranormal romance starts off the series with a bang. I have my suspicions about who the heroine of the next Prime Warrior tale may be, but I'll have to wait and see.

Sensuality: Rated E-rotic by the publisher. Explicit sex, anal sex; sexually explicit scenes: 8
