Stories tell of great fire-breathing beasts large as castles, fierce and deadly, capable of magicks that no human can match. The Kingdom of Kentaine once allied itself with the dragons of old, but eventually, the dragons were lost to time and fell into legend.

Sir Gawain, First Knight of the Realm, is tasked by his older sister the Queen to travel to the edges of their kingdom, where a beast is flaming villagers and has the locals ready to form a mob and hunt it down themselves. His mission is to find the dragon, stop the violence, and do what he needs to maintain the peace.

His journey puts him in the heart of a confrontation with the dragon, but instead of saving the villagers, it is the dragon that needs rescuing. Zephyr, a fire dragon and an escaped slave, needs protection, time to heal, and a chance at a life full of hope.

Gawain can do no less than offer his sword, his shield, and his heart. Evil is hunting Zephyr, and it will not stop until it has reclaimed its prize.

Beyond the legends lies the truth, and love, like fire, consumes everything it touches.

Contains mature themes.

Once again S.J. Himes and Joel Leslie make an amazing combination.
I've been waiting with bated breath for this book and am just as in love with the audio as I am the original book.
Zephyr is absolutely adorable and such a sweetheart.
Joel as always, does an excellent job of bringing everyone to life. I'm crossing my fingers for a sequel in the hopefully near future.

can't get enough!

Not really raunchy - more sweet. I enjoyed it. A light little MM romance fairy tale. I regret the author did not stretch things so to speak and explore their hook up possibilities a little more thoroughly. Ah well room for a sequel...

Brings new meaning to Dragon Rider

This is a great book and I can't wait to see what happens. Hopefully the next one will come out soon.

Love this story!!

I really enjoyed this story. I worried that since it's a short romance that it would just be a bunch of sex, but there was real character growth and story development. I really hope that more books will be added since there were things left unresolved. can't wait for more.

truly looking forward to more

OMG Joel voicing this dragon was everything. I loved the hissing that he put into the words to make it more effective.

Sexy Dragon

I enjoyed this story, and Joel Leslie is amazing as always, especially as Zephyr the dragon. I just wish it was longer and tied up some loose ends. maybe there will be a sequel to tie things up, but I kind of feel like it was just a short story that chose to focus more on the romance than actually tying things up with the bad guy.

just wish it was longer

This was a fairly short story set in a somewhat medieval setting that has us meeting an injured dragon named Zephyr. In this world, dragons have not been seen for hundreds of years so when the Queen of the realm hears about a dragon sighting, she send her brother Sir Gawain - who happens to be a knight with his own squadron - to see if the rumors are true.

It so happens that Zephyr was kidnapped and held by an evil mage who kept him caged through magical means and was using him to siphon off his magic. Zephyr is finally able to escape. Unfortunately, he frightens the humans in the surrounding villages and they end up trying to kill him and wounding him greatly. The story starts from there.

Sir Gawain finds this dragon and Zephyr immediately feel safe with him. Things get a little odd from there - only because of the fact that...well, he's a dragon. This story felt a bit superficial, which was fine because it made it an easy read/listen. It felt very "and they lived happily ever after" but it let several open questions - like what happened to the bad guy?

I listened to this completely on audio and Joel Leslie did the narration. I've listened to lots and lots of books with Mr. Leslie 's narration and as usual, he did a great job.

One thing that stood out was the character of Zephyr. He was adorable...utterly adorable. I would love to read anything that has him as a MC. I did look to see if there was a book 2 but so far, this is the only book out. It came out in January 2020, so we are almost at 3 years now. I'm not sure if that means there will or will not be a book 2 - I guess we just have to wait and see.....

What a lovely story Knight’s Fire is! S.J. Himes is one of my favorite authors. She’s a master of the m/m paranormal romance genre, and I enjoy her books immensely.I’ve read Knight’s Fire a couple of times so far, but listening to Joel Leslie’s splendid narration makes the story even more fun. I’m looking forward to the sequel, to the chance of meeting Gawain and Zephyr again, to seeing his captor in jail and their babies being born! 5 stars for the author, the story and the narrator!

Zephyr is a sweet dragon who escaped captivity from a cruel mage only to be attacked by humans who fear what they don’t understand. Gawain comes to Zephyr’s aid and what follows is a sweet love story for the ages. I fell in love with both characters and rooted for them to be together. SJ Himes did a wonderful job building a world where dragons and knights exist, and Joel Leslie brought that world to life with his spectacular narration.
