Narration Supposing Books You Slay Me (Aisling Grey #1)
The author of The Corset Diaries returns to the realm of the paranormal in this sexy, funny romance that pits Seattle-based Aisling Grey against Drake Vireo, a seriously handsome Parisian dragon in human form. In her job as courier, Aisling is to deliver a precious demonic artifact to a Mme. Deauxville in Paris, but she finds Madame freshly dead, surrounded by a circle of ash. The artifact is then stolen by the fast-talking Drake, who claims that Aisling is no mere courier but in fact a demon lord and his destined mate. Determined to play detective, Aisling summons up a demon only to find herself saddled with one, in the form of a slobbering Newfoundland who wants to go walkies. Drake wants to show her the way dragons mate, and then bodies seem to pile up all over Paris, making Aisling a corpse magnet and top suspect. It's going to take every screwy new ally she's got to solve this murder and adjust to her new life in a strange new world.

One of those books that is terrible and terribly addicting at the same time. I did not expect to giggle as much as I did. The main character is an idiot who constantly goes around making poor life decisions but she does it with enough pizzazz that you can't help liking her anyway. And while I want to say that having a main character who acknowledges her own stupidity does not excuse said stupidity, it certainly made it easier to swallow. To describe the dragon love interest would involve meIn honestly, I have to admit that I threw this book across the room at page 176. This is an act I have not performed since I read Mercedes Lackey's The Silver Gryphon, which was to packing luggage as MST3K's "The Lost Continent" was to rock climbing.I did not finish this book, but after a week of my wife giggling at my grumbling before it became a thrown missle (damage: 1d2), I feel qualified enough to say...Aisling Grey is a quirky, funny woman who I pictured as "Veronica Mars"-era Kirsten
Just what I needed, a light funny story with sexual tension. Love the Dragon, yahoo, what a cutie ! The demons and witches are great characters, laughable side kicks. The snotty French ? Maybe not, LOL ! I love Ashling Grey, fantastic, can't wait to read the next book, Bravo Katie MacAlister !If you are looking for something light, quick, funny, with attractive men and a great story line, this is the book to read.

I really liked this one, I thought it was a quick paranormal romance read and instead it was a pleasantly readable story with over-the-top characters, a smattering of romance (smut, and humorous at that) and its never boring even in the weakest plot points. Genuine fun."And you're one of Amaymon's servants?" Surprisingly, it looked away and gave an embarrassed doggy cough. "I was." "Was?" I pounced on the word. "Was? As in ... was?" "You're a regular Einstein, aren't you? Yes, was, as in Amaymon
"You are too arrogant for your own good. I officially de-mate you. Go away. I never want to see you again. Except maybe tonight. Naked. Your place. But after that, no more."~Aisling GreyA charming little start to a series, this book was. Though I must admit that the heroine at times had me thinking "oh geez." A flighty, silly and at times maddening lady, she also brings just the right amount of humor and heart to the book through her thoughts and responses to numerous unfortunate
3- Just Fuck the Dragon Already- Stars So yeah. I'm not really sure how I feel about this book.Was it horrible? Was it great? Was Aisling really that stupid? Was it weird as shit? Did I still read all the way to the end just to find out what happens?
