About this listen

Can a human heart withstand the flames of a dragon’s soul?

For centuries, the dragons of Kalleen have ruled the skies. Blessed by the goddess of fire, those born of her power are destined to exist within two worlds while fully belonging to neither.

As the youngest daughter of the dragon queen, Amelia has always been torn between her humanity and winged form. In meeting Stephen, she found a blossoming love that gave her hope of finding balance. But it is a dream destroyed when her sister, and future queen, sets her sights upon the same man.

Forced from her lover’s side, Amelia embraces a self-imposed exile, taking refuge in the northern mountains. In this new life of solitude, she banishes painful memories by retreating to her dragon form, sheltering the wounded girl within. Yet it is an isolation that cannot last, as the new dragon queen’s cruelty bears down upon the kingdom, allowing an ancient enemy to rise.

Drawn from her banishment by the pleas of friends, Amelia must choose. Will she embrace the destructive beast within? Or draw upon the frail humanity that lingers dimly in her soul, in a desperate attempt to help her people and mend a broken heart?

Have you ever wanted to be a dragon?

I loved this book so much. Great characters and plot. Everything you want from a fantasy romance novel. K.L. Bone never disappoints with her page turning novels. In this one a young princess is forced to go out into the unknown and find herself. Find her strength and become the dragon in order to right some terrible wrongs. K.L. Bone's amazing talent for details make you feel like you are the dragon flying high in the sky and the incredible strength it takes to control it. Cheers Kristen you have done it again. I can't wait to read the next in the series.

Fantastic Dragon Shifter Story!

This was my first K.L. Bone's book, and won't be the last. This is the first book in the Flames of Kalleen Series. Embracing the Dragon is a great dragon shifter story. The world building is fantastic. The storyline is original, fast-paced, twisted, and captivating. I love Amelia. She is a strong and beautiful character. The other characters are also great. The scenery is wonderful. Now, I can't wait for the next book in the Series, Releasing the Dragon. Kylie Stewart has a beautiful soft voice, and she did an amazing job reading this book. I enjoyed listening to this audiobook. #AudiobookObsession

Different points of view

I love that!
She was betrayed by her own sister and now she has to find a way to a safe life.

The narration is good but a bit monotone. But she has a soothing voice.

Embracing the Dragon

Embracing the Dragon is the first installment from The Flames of Kalleen series. It is, also, the first book I have read by KL Bone. I enjoyed this story. The writing style was different and unique, which was refreshing. I liked reading something that is new and different and something outside of my comfort zone. Amelia is an admirable character full of strength and courage. I loved hearing the Kylie Stewart’s narration of the book and having her performing Amelia's tale.
I give Embracing the Dragon four and a half stars. I look forward to the next installment in The Flames of Kalleen series.
I received the audio version of this book from the publisher. This review is 100% my own honest opinion.

Dragon Shifters!

I enjoyed this book from the start. Amelia is the younger sister so she never anticipated life changing from her. Her sister was to be queen. She was going to go forward with life and her love as it had been. Except, that isn't the plan the new queen has for her. The narrator did a great job at conveying feelings. My only issue was the pacing was a bit slow for me.

The dragon shifter aspect of it was amazing. I loved that! Amelia has such a crushing time of it at the start, I felt so terrible for her. She is strong though. I think my favorite character was the captain and the decisions he made. Overall, it was a fabulous story.


It was a 4/5 for me. I cannot wait to see where this goes next.

Thank you to the author for the review copy of this book. I received this audiobook in exchange for an honest review and the opinions stated above are 100% mine.

5* Must Listen

Book 1 in Flames of Kalleen series

Royal dragon shifter princess blessed by the goddess of moonlight. Betrayed by sister and love. Exiled and on the run. Dragons are creatures of legend with desires to protect self and others. Need to find balance with control.

Dragon Shifters...Grief...Betrayal...Broken Heart...Dedication...Protection...Love...Family Drama...Political Upheaval...Troubled Kingdom...Battle for Control...Restitution...

Well-developed characters, some to love and some to despise. Detailed world-building. I was captivated from the beginning. And, dragon shifters! Loved the storyline and can hardly wait to see how the series continues in book 2.

"No pain. In safety shall I keep you. In my protection shall you be until the end of time."
"Protect. Save girl."
"Lies cannot harm a dragon."
"Sanctuary could become a prison."
"Embrace the creature within, but never let the dragon embrace you."
"To be with you at all costs."

Great start to the series.

I have been a fan of KL Bone since discovering The Black Rose series.
This book was no different and was a great start the Flames of Kalleen series.
I’ve never listened to an audio book before this, and I loved it. The narrator was concise and clear and the story was amazing and easy to follow along with while I did other tasks. I look forward to listening to the rest rest of the series.
