Dragon Resisting by Sloane Meyers

Sizzle, Secrets, and Second Chances… For wizard Natalie Batton, a big city is the perfect place to hide from her magical past. She’s perfectly content blending into the crowd, until an ordinary winter day suddenly becomes a fight to the death with a group of dark wizards. But when a dragon shifter she befriended during the last war unexpectedly shows up to help her, she realizes that she’s always wanted more from him than just friendship. Loving him means coming out of hiding, though, and she isn’t ready to give up all her secrets. Caught somewhere between the past and the future, she puts a wall up around her confused heart. But he isn’t giving up so easily…

Dragon shifter Kurt Watford has embraced his newfound life as one of Torch Lake’s elite citizens. But that doesn’t mean he’s enjoying his latest mission. He’s supposed to be shutting down enemy attacks in the frigid city of Chicago, but without any leads he feels like he’s failing. When a chance encounter brings an old friend across his path, he realizes she can help him. He also realizes he never should have let her go, and he’s determined to make up for last time and prove he’s worthy of her heart. She isn’t convinced that they’re made for each other, and he’s beginning to give up hope. But when an enemy attack directly threatens her life, he’s given one more chance to show her what dragons are made of and win her love—as long as he can save her before time runs out. Can Kurt hold back the darkness that’s trying to take Natalie’s life? And will Natalie find the courage to be true to herself, and to her feelings for Kurt?
