About this audiobook
Grigori Barinov is the eldest in an ancient line of dragon shifters and the guardian of his family's lands and fortune. Sworn to protect their history and magic, he won't rest until he neutralizes any threat to their existence. When he discovers an ancient manuscript that exposes his family and their dragon lineage has fallen into a mortal woman's hands, he knows he must get the book back by any means necessary. If that means seducing a nosy American woman with an intoxicating scent, he is more than willing to carry her off to his palatial home deep in the heart of Russia.
Madelyn Haynes has never fit in. As an adopted child she grew up in a loving home but never felt as though she belonged. Plagued by mysterious dreams she's had of a silver scaled beast ever since she was a little girl, she is convinced dragons are real. While in Russia working on her PhD in mythology, she unexpectedly crosses paths with the sexy and dominating Grigori. Isolated in the Russian wilderness Grigori calls home, Madelyn can't help but fall under his sensual spell, yet something deep inside her calls out that she can't trust him. She has to show the world dragons are real to salvage her academic reputation, even if it means costing her the heart of the dragon she's falling in love with.
Contains mature themes.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Overall I’m rating this book 4 stars. This book was slow-paced but was a quicker read than expected. I liked all the characters and their individual personalities. I loved that there was some passion between this couple. I also liked the fact the heroine was into mythology, although she wasn’t the mythology type. I loved that this book took place in Russia and it had some Russian aspects. I also loved that the author had a thunderbird in this book. It’s original and made this book better. This book had dual P.O.V.s. I liked but not loved this read. This diffidently isn’t my favorite or even in my top 3 dragon shifter books but I enjoyed it.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I absolutely love this series. This is my second time listening to the books. I hope there are more to come!
- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5I figured out where the story was going to go, and by 23% in, didn’t really care enough to stay and see how the characters dealt with that
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Grigori by Lauren SmithBrothers of Ash and Fire #1Madelyn has dreamed of dragons her entire life and has always been interested in proving they are or were real. In Moscow she finds a book that indicates they may be BUT finds herself in jeopardy as a result of reading the book and photographing what was in it. Grigori Barinov and his two brothers are the last of their dragon line and need to create progeny or they will all die out. Little does he know that taking Madelyn home with him might prove to be the best thing that ever happened – for both of them. There are fights and enemies and a mating and a revelation related to Madelyn and a few other fun events before the book ends with a lead into the next book which will be the story of Grigori’s brother Mikhail. My guess is that Rurik will be the third story in the series. This was an easy read about a dragon and the mate he ends up with. There was nothing new in this paranormal romance but it was an enjoyable read. Thank you to NetGalley and St. Martin’s Press – Swerve – this is my honest review. 3-4 Stars
