Kiss of Frost is the fourth book of the Dragon Laird series and although you could probably read this one as a stand-alone, it is totally worth it to read the first 3 books to get some context of the back story.

I have loved all the dragons in this series, but I absolutely adore Callum. He is a playful, irreverent charmer and more than one of his retorts had me snort laughing. He is also a truth teller and no matter how dirty he has to talk he lets Georgie and Graeme know the truth of things.

I really Georgie too. I love that she embraces the truth of her gift and never waivers in that acceptance. Ultimately, it is her trust in her gift that will lead to uncovering deceptions that have existed for years.

The chemistry between Georgie and Callum is off the charts from the very beginning and when Graeme joins the mix the heat is blistering. This is a MM/MFM story and the scenes are explicit but well written. And there is never any doubt of the deep caring that the Throuple have for each other once the bond is accepted by all of them.

At the beginning of the story we see that there are still many unmated dragons in King Cormac’s castle. I can’t wait to see what awaits these dragons as the series continues.

I shouldn’t be surprised, Pennza won me over with her “Bound and Bitten” trilogy, but this novel did indeed surprise me. It can be read as a standalone, but I suggest reading at least the previous book in this series. Nothing is more sexy than Highlanders who are dragon shifters, and if you MMF then this story will certainly win you over. It’s not just steamy sex haphazardly strewn about. No, this fated mates book has a terrific plot. Our 3 MC’s: Georgie, a witch on a quest to speak to the Oracle about the North Wind; Callum, a dragon shifter and incubus with a wicked sense of humor; Graeme, a heartless ice dragon bound to the Brotherhood and protector of the Oracle. Read how as soon as Callum meets Georgie, he recognizes his fated female, and both embark on her quest, but once they reach their destination…their fated male mate Graeme obstructs them…in more ways than one. Read this fascinating tale of shifters, witches, Fae, etc. and how the ancient Graeme lost his fated mate year ago. It really is a fascinating and enjoyable read.

When ice meets fire and wind.

I love this series and the intense heat and acceptance in each grouping.

Plus this one was unique from the others because the guys did not have an established relationship before the female joined them. Plus the dragons were each halflings. Which lent them each unique powers that played into the story.

This one was packed with feels when it came to poor Graeme and the situation leading to him becoming an ice dragon. Plus his release at the end had a tear in my eye.

The pop culture references between Callum and Georgie was funny and their banter had me giggling.

A mfm paranormal fantasy romance set in modern times but this story is on a different plane in a frozen world. A story with deep emotions, healing, betrayals, witty banter and high high heat.

Multiple povs told in first person

Characters -
Georgina Blackwood of House Blackwood - aka Georgie, witch with wind powers
Callum McLeish - half green dragon shifter/ half incubus demon
Graeme Abernathy - half ice dragon/half unseelie fae

Steam - high heat, with mmf, mf, mm

Triggers - loss of former mate, anxiety S840 10

I am back and forth on this book. If I keep consistent with how I rate books then it’s a three. Georgie is a witch on a quest to do the impossible. She has large shoes to fill with both her parents being elite witches, however Georgie feels she can never measure up.

She presents her case to the dragons to help her on this quest and she finds one of her mates, Callum. Callum is half incubus and half dragon and he can read your deepest desires. These two get hot and heavy instantly because you know mate thing…

While on the quest they of course find their missing third in Graeme an ice dragon. Graeme is still carrying a torch for his old mate that was killed and feels he’s betraying him if he gives into the mate bond that is forming between him, Georgie and Callum.

Warning there is male on male action so if that’s not your thing be prepared. I would have d a bit more story to balance the almost non-stop horizontal action, not to say that it wasn’t steamy just would have d a more balanced meal.

“You came here looking for your fate, Georgina Blackwood. It appears fate found you first.”

I have loved this series from the start and always excited for more. Great world building and wonderful characters. I loved Callum, Georgie, and Graeme. The chemistry between them is scorching, and Amy Pennza knows how to write the best and hottest intimate scenes. The story is a little different in that the two males weren't originally together and didn't know each other at first. It's Georgie's journey that finds one (or rather he finds her), and then they find the other. And I didn't mind that at all.

I loved the set up at the beginning of Georgie meeting Niall, Cormac, and Isolde- the triad from the previous book, Kiss of A Dragon King. I loved seeing them, before Georgie is deliciously swept away by Callum. And I was so hooked. I loved the thawing of Graeme's walls. The heat between him and Callum, and the way he and Georgie made him feel again. Another fantastic addition to this series! 5 stars. Elivia3 1 follower

Love is a powerful thing and you can’t escape fate .

Amy just has a way with words! Especially sexy smutty words ! I love this series so much and each book gets better and better. Callum is a sweetheart that is always optimistic and knows just what his mates need. Georgie is strong and determined but realizes how much she has craved love when she finally gets it unconditionally . Graeme’s heart is frozen from his tragic past but quickly thaws to show a good man who fate gives a second chance to. I loved how this book was slightly different then the others in the fact that instead of the two male dragons being together looking for their female the other books it was one dragon finding his female mate then immediately finding his other mate as well .The love scenes are always amazing in Amy’s books and you really feel the desire that all of the characters have for eachother. I can’t wait for the next book ! Toni1,473 9

GEORGIE is a witch on a quest given to her by the elders. If she wants to lead her house she needs to control the North Wind. She feels as if they gave her this quest so she could fail. She goes to the King of the Dragons and there as she is asking for their help she meets CALLUM, a dragon/incubus. He recognizes her as his. They leave for the North where they meet GRAEME. He took a vow and froze his heart. But upon seeing Georgie he starts to feel. He is fighting that compulsion which he thinks is the witch trying to do magic on him. Now Georgie and Callum need to convince Graeme to let them pass through to the North Wind. To make matters more complicated, the two of them realize that Graeme is their mate also. Oh goodie! Can life get any more complicated???
Fantastic story but it will make you feel cold and shivery as you read the description of the North. Brrrrrrrrrrrrr!.

"When I want someone, I get them."

I adore this series, have since the beginning, and I was so happy Amy had another book for us because we can never have enough Dragon's.

Just all the other books there are two steaming dragons and their female mate. But this time, instead of two mated Dragon who have been together a long time finally finding their female, Callum, one of the dragons and female witch Georgie find each other first and then later their third, Graeme, joins them. Also, in a different spin, Graeme had a prior mate who died and he isn't really looking for anyone new.

I loved all three of them, especially Callum. He almost stole my heart from Fergus, my favorite of all the dragons, from book two. I was on the edge of my seat wanting these three to find their hea together. It's OK if you haven't read the prior books although there are some mentions and appearances of different characters and to be honest, reading all the books in order is just a lot more fun.arc fantasy favorite-authors ...more Kirstie Close199 1 follower

This is far from being frosty. When i say it is a hot read, i mean it scorching hot, and the ice doesn't help in any way.

I couldn't put this down. i read it in one sitting it will give you all the feels.

The storyline is fantastic, along with the character and world building throughout.

We have Georgie, the strong independent witch, sent on a quest to prove herself only to find 2 mates on the way.
Callum is sweet, funny, and has a filthy mouth. He's a dragon incubus that can read your deepest fantasies. He's a dragon after my own heart.
Finally, we have Graeme, a dragon who has been so lost to heartbreak for hundreds of years, finds his path to peace.


If you haven't read any of Amy's books, please go read them.
I love this series and all the characters.
So go check the other three out!!
Trust me, you will not be disappointed. Nikki Parker374 3

When Georgie is sent on a mission to harness the North Wind before she can become the leader of her Covenstead, she never expected to find one of her mates, Callum. Knowing that they have to get past the guardian of the White Gate, they discover more than they could imagine. With her father's last words warning her that a dark wind is coming, it will take all that she has together with the strength of her mates to defeat the silent evil that has surrounded the White Gate. This hot and steamy read has everything you need to keep you on the edge of your seat. With plenty of action and drama you won't be able to put it down as you are captivated by this story.

OMG So Hot!!

This book was sooo amazing! I loved it from beginning to end! Georgie, who is a witch and heir of House Blackwood, goes to the King of the dragons for permission to go to the Oracle of the North Wind. Before she can leave though, she is claimed by one of the dragons – Callum.

Callum goes with her on her quest, but they are taken by Graeme who is now an ice dragon. Over time, his heart starts to thaw, and he develops feelings for them both.

But when they go to see the Oracle, things don’t go quite as planned.

This book was 100% hot, and I loved every second of it! Looking forward to more books in this series!

This was so good. I almost neglected work to finish reading it. Our witch shows up in Scotland to get permission to approach the North Wind. Within minutes she is confronted with her dragon mate. The pull between them is to strong to ignore. Then they set off for the north. They meet the frozen dragon warrior who guards the north wind. They know this dragon with the frozen heart is their mate. They have to unfreeze him, combat evil, free the North Wind and make this dragon theirs. So hot of a read and amazing twist for more drama. Great read.

Funny and very steamy!
While reading this book, it kept an almost perpetual grin on my face. The teasing and sexy banter, even during dire circumstances kept me going, I even gave up some sleepy time – couldn’t put it down.
As it is the fourth book in a series, it is more logical to read the others first, but this one can be read as a standalone. It is not a very long book, but will definitely give the reader some very enjoyable hours.

Ice so hot it burns

Witch Georgie must harness the Oracle of the North Wind. Her quest leads her first to Callum, a dragon/incubus handling, and her fated mate. He accompanies her to the North Wind's realm, where ice dragon Graeme guards the Oracle. Ice dragons are heartless. They feel nothing. But Georgie and Callum recognize their triad's fated mate - if he can be thawed. If they can then complete Georgie's quest. The struggle for love takes many forms, and this is a hot and tender and mesmerizing tale of how the struggle may be won. PN_booklover92

I really enjoyed this story! The characters, the chemistry, the struggle, the plot twist that I didn't see coming! All reasons to read this book. The only critique I would give is that I would have d to see Greame and Georgie also have their moment(s) alone in order to build their relationship. At the moment I'm still left feeling that the bond between Greame and Callum, and Callum and Georgie are stronger than the bond between Greame and Georgie.

Red Hot in the Icy Cold

Georgie needs the dragon king’s permission to travel north to capture the North Wind. At the king’s stronghold, in a fierce blast of lust, she meets her first mate, Calem. However, meeting the ice dragon Graham and completing their triad brings more complications. I loved how hot hot HOT this story was, between Calem and Georgie’s initial meeting to Calem wearing down Graham and when all three of the came together. The ending was a shocker to me, which I really enjoyed! A fantastic read! Priscilla624

Georgie has been tasked to capture the North Wind in order to take over House Blackwood after her father's passing. First, she must get help from King Cormac but she ends up finding her dragon mate, Callum. In order to fulfill her task, she must get past the ice dragon, Graeme. The characters are charming and the plot was really good. The whole series has been awesome. Definitely hoping for more to come.

Scorchingly good.

This series is just so good! Amy certainly knows how to write a blisteringly steamy story, and this one was a scorcher. However there was also a lot of compassion and tenderness, as well as lighthearted banter and fun. Each of the main characters personalities shone, and the overarching story line had an interesting quest, suspense and a satisfying conclusion.

4??

The author does a great job in taking the same premise (fated mates, dragons have a hard time finding their mate, halflings, etc.) in every book, and yet still making each story unique to the MCs. This one was definitely heavier than the others as there’s a strong focus on loss, but I think it was done really well. I do wish there was more time to see the relationship develop amongst all the MCs in a more gradual way, but it was still cute. Debbie Benson5,522 23

I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review. It is another wonderful story in this series. A quest leads Georgie to her mates Callum and Graeme. I how they confronted the oracle and came away better and more in love with each other. Her quest is completed but not in the way expected. However it is still successful.2023-reading-challenge Linda52

Amy just has a way with words, I love this series so much. Callum is a sweetheart that is always optimistic, Georgie is strong and Graeme’s heart is frozen from his tragic past. I loved how this book is different than the others. I can’t wait for the next book !.

Love this Dragon Lairds series. This one is slightly different than the others in the series. It was so heart wrenching for Graeme when he lost his first mate. Eventually all true mate find their way to each other. Another great read.

I really d this one! It felt a little rushed at the end but, it's a short quick spicy read so...you get what you pay for. For me, there has not been a dud in this series - they are all quicks reads, SUPER spicy, and entertaining. What more could you ask for when reading a less than 300 page book? Sam Allen1,448 8

Awesome story/series

I laughed & cried throughout the story so sad what happened to the ice dragon (not going to try to spell his name!!!) But all is well and love beats every thing!!
Thank you Lori TAG358 2

Nice that was slightly different storyline in this series and unexpected resolution to plot line. Thoroughly enjoyed the hotness between the main characters. Hope this isn’t the last book in the series. 2024 ?Danielle?604 44
