Together they learn to love one antraother while they struggle to stay one step ahead in a game where the prize is their survival.  -Goodreads


My Thoughts
Darien Oceina is no stranger to heartache.  In fact, given the tragic circumstances surrounding his birth; on could say that it is an emotion he was born to. To make matters worse for the young lordling, he is said to be one of the "touched".  The "touched" of dragon lore are possessed of great magic, and as such are often feared and misunderstood.  Darien is just such a case.

His heart's one hope...

Darien has loved Tai Dawson from afar for most of his young life.  With the coming of his eighteenth birthday and his mating time...Darien plans to close that distance permanently. 
If she will have him.

The bittersweet first offering in the Dragon Saga series is the perfect introduction into the magic and mysticism that comprises the world of the Elemental Dragon Lords.
The tale told within the pages of Legend of the Oceina Dragon, is one of family, betrayal, forgiveness, and love.
J. F. Jenkins makes makes walking between the worlds of the magical and the mundane a truly transcendent experience.  Championing the virtues of family, marriage, love and honor without preaching or condescension.
This is the first book in what this reviewer has come to know is indeed an awesome series!
