Publisher's summary

Winner: PNR Guild Reviewer's Choice Award - Best Vampires & Shifters series!

After 10 years in the military, dragon shifter Theo Lazaridis has a new mission: to check off the last of his father’s requirements and finally claim a vast inheritance. But plans are made to be rewritten, and priorities change, especially when a fiery stranger appears, turning his world upside down.

Zoe Thomas is living an archaeologist’s dream on a sun-kissed Greek island. That is, until startling new discoveries at her excavation open a Pandora’s box of trouble - and puts her on a collision course with powerful forces straight out of Greek mythology.

Much as her stubborn pride hates to admit it, Zoe needs help to protect an ancient wonder - and to survive. The problem is, the only person up to the challenge is a tantalizing mystery man she’s been warned not to get involved with.... The very man she finds impossible to resist.

Anna Lowe’s Fire Maidens: Billionaires & Bodyguards series

Danger lurks over Europe, where a ruthless dragon clan plots to seize power in the grandest, most glamorous cities. The guardians of old have summoned a new generation of shifter heroes to protect the castles, cathedrals, and cobblestoned streets of their ancestral homes - and to seek out the last of the Fire Maidens, women coveted by the dark lords for their royal blood. Those women are absolutely off-limits to the young warriors tasked with protecting them. But destiny, of course, has other ideas...

A series of sizzling paranormal romances with adult content. Dragons, wolves, lions, and more! Each story is a pause-resister packed with action, emotion, and romance! No cliff-hangers. If you like smoldering hot shapeshifters, military heroes, royal intrigue, and a hint of magic, you'll love these books. Join these strong heroines and their alpha heroes in atmospheric locales filled with danger and suspense!

Zoe and Theo

Each story in this series is thoroughly enjoyable and I highly recommend listening to or reading each book. This is Theo’s story. Theo has become a better person/dragon after 10 years in the French Foreign Legion even though no one knows so he shows it by his actions. He is back since he honored his father’s requirement and now he needs to claim a mate and marry so he can claim his inheritance. His father picked out candidates and before Theo meets them, Zoe storms in to see his father (she is a strong woman and I love that). After she leaves, his father tells him to take care of her and Theo is thrilled. He hasn’t really met her and he feels “it.” When Zoe meets Theo, she feels “it” too and after talking with him, has spicy dreams of him. Theo’s reputation sucks but Zoe doesn’t know who he is. Zoe and Theo’s chemistry is apparent from the beginning

I thought I wanted to visit Venice but now I want to visit Greece too! Ms. Lowe paints such a beautiful picture of the Greek Islands. I love this magical shifter/fire maiden world. Listening to Ms. Lowe’s books makes you feel that you are part of the characters’ lives if for just a short while.

Theo took a long time to tell Zoe who he is, although I understand why. Zoe and Theo were on his yacht having a blast with each other. His friend, Heath, from the French Foreign Legion is waiting on shore. They took a boat from the yacht to meet him but there was also a woman there, Zifera, who was Theo’s friend from school. He was never involved with her. She told him she wanted to marry him (for personal gain for both of them) all while Zoe is standing there! Zifera even says that after they are married, he could have a side chick. She thought she could save him from his father with the perfect plan. My heart went out to Zoe because that is when she finds out who he is.

This book had lots of romance, suspense, and edge of your seat action, especially when villain Jacqueline, from previous books, and her minions make an appearance and cause a lot of trouble. I hope she will get her due in a future book. A lot of different shifter species come to help out, including Heath.

I love how this book ended and Theo’s father’s reaction to everything. Kelsey Osborne did a great job with the narration and brought the story to life.

Theo and Zoe

I have loved all the books in this series, listening to them is always enriched by the detail Anna puts into her descriptions and the background information she gives on the places mentioned in her stories. This one is set on a small island, Anenomodolos, where the island is divided, the east side of the island is enchanted to protect it from the dragons who rule the rest of the island. I love Greek mythology and in this book, so many of the characters from it are a much-needed integral part of the story.

Theo's a dragon shifter who has returned to the island of his birth, Anenomodolos which he left over ten years ago. He joined the French Foreign Legion to fulfil his father's demands so he would be able to claim his inheritance. But those ten years in the Legion have changed Theo from the selfish young man he was, now all he has to do is prove that to not only his father but to the people of the island and fulfil one last demand, he must choose a mate from amongst the suitable females he father has chosen.

Zoe's an archaeologist who is surveying the east side of the island, at first glance you would think she was human but she has a secret too. It doesn't take her long to fall in love with the island, she's always loved Greece and has visited it regularly with her adoptive parents who love to take part in re-enactments of the Spartans battles of old. Her birth certificate says she was born in Crete after which she was given to an owl shifter family who lives in the US, they believe she may be part witch although she hasn't yet displayed any magical abilities.

Greece needs a Fire Maiden and the Guardians have decided that Theo and one of a group of females are the most likely candidates to produce one in their offspring. He may need to prove himself to his father, but will he marry someone he doesn't love just to obtain his inheritance?

He and Zoe meet and there is an instant attraction between them, they develop a friendship that eventually turns into love. When an evil she-dragon threatens Zoe she learns that she has abilities she didn't know she had and she uses them to protect herself and the island. With the help of Theo and Heath, some centaurs, a minotaur, satyrs, and even a Pegasus as well as the Spartans (who she manages to impress with her fighting skills) the battle is won.

After the battle choices will need to be made and truths will need to be told but that's as much as I'm going to say about this one - no more spoilers from me except to say that the storyline is enchanting and not easy to leave so sit back and enjoy.

The narration of the story by Kelsey Osborne is, as always, excellent and enhances this beautiful tale.

I was given this audiobook as a gift and am voluntarily writing my review.

Another Enjoyable Installment 💖

As with the previous books in this series, this installment was fabulous! Zoe and Theo were an engaging couple who were easy to invest in. I enjoyed the additional shifter types that were introduced in this book.

Narration was on point as well. I've grown to truly enjoy Ms. Osborne's voice.

Disclosure: I received a free copy of the audiobook. I also purchased the Kindle version.

Ever feel like a place is where you belong?

I have always enjoyed Anna Lowe's books. When she writes in a location like this, it makes me feel like I have discovered a private gem. Her stories have always stood out for me time and time again and this one is no different. Her narrator does a wonderful job at making the book live.

Zoe is an archeologist on a remote island in Greece. Ever since she had arrived the place seemed to have been calling home to her. Powerful people don't want her to discover anything of interest on the island, yet she feels that there is a story to be told in the ruins she is surveying.

Theo is a dragon shifter with a past. Even though the years of military service have caused him to grow up, he still needs to prove himself to the locals who only saw him as a spoiled rich brat. To earn the respect he has started to make amends, then he stumbles across Zoe who his dragon is insisting is his mate. However her bloodlines won't satisfy his father's conditions to earn his inheritance. So he must make a decision that is a hard call for any dragon shifter : Love or treasure?

However there are forces on the move that neither are prepared for. I don't want to get to far into the details which might spoil the book, but I definitely recommend picking the book up. It is great as a stand alone, and while there are mentions of the previous couples from the Fire Maidens series, the only real cameo is a foreshadowing of the next book to be released.

I received this as a gift from the author, and felt that my words may motivate future readers. I fully enjoyed this book.

Terrific! Dragon shifters, romance, and action!

Enjoyed the listen! The narrator is too exuberant sounding, but the performance quality was good.

Another fun one! Love the sweet and spicy romance! Love the shifter action and suspense! Entertaining story! The Greece setting was wonderful too! Dragon shifter Theo and Zoe have great chemistry. Theo returns back to Greece, but he doesn’t have the best reputation there, so he needs to prove himself a bit. He’s also being pressured by his father to marry; luckily, he meets Zoe! Zoe stands up for herself; love her sass and strength. The fire maiden premise has some cool magical aspects; I enjoy the different elements that each fire maiden brings to this series. I’ve enjoyed this whole series! Excited for more!

Fire Maidens Greece

Love, love, love these two! I have enjoyed all of the fire maidens books but think this one is by far my favorite. These two are so strong and willing to admit when mistakes are made to help create an even stronger bond. Although I didn’t get to listen as fast as I had hoped do to normal life stuff, it was totally worth the wait!!

Fantastic story

I just loved Theo and Zoe's story. We get not only a love story but we get to meet a bunch of new kinds of shifters. I won't spoil it by telling you what they are but you might have some guesses since it is Greece after all.

Theo has come back to the island of Anemodous after ten years served in the French Foreign Legion. He left the island as a spoiled, reckless dragon youth and returned as a seasoned warrior. Unfortunately, the memories of the older shifters on the island are long and he will have to prove he has changed if he wants to win them over. His feelings on his return home are mixed. On the one hand, he is glad to be back in Greece and loves his island home, on the other hand, he has to face his father and the man's insistence that he marry if he wants to get his inheritance. He has watched many of his fellow legionnaires find their destined mates and fall in love and that what he wants for himself but he doesn't think his father is going to want to wait for that to happen. He has resigned himself to choosing one of the money-hungry women his father has lined up for him - until he sees a woman stand up to his father's posturing and then walk out on him. Wow, now that's his kind of woman. If only she wasn't a human...

Zoe has fallen in love with the island of Anemodous and wishes she could remain there forever but her job at an archaeological site is most likely a very short one. She is at the site on the empty east side of the island with only her donkey and a cat for company. She comes into the small village in the west side of the island once a week to send off a report about her findings and to check her personal email. The only thing she has really discovered is that the site and surrounding area has some kind of magic - not exactly something she can put into a report. Then she meets Theo and everything changes...

I was given an advanced copy of this book by the author. My review is voluntary.

Wonderful!

Another great story by Anna Lowe. I can't get enough of her stories. I highly recommend this story. Each story does have characters from the other stories in the series but can be read out of order and by itself. Get an Anna Lowe story and lose yourself in the fun and adventure.

Action-packed and Intense

This story starts out slow, but really takes off as we slowly get to know Theo & Zoe. The action is every bit as intense as the other books in this series. The narrator gives another great performance, and the author writes Theo as someone who is working towards improving himself. I love the surprise twist at the end.

Greece!

This was such a fun read! I have loved the entire Billionaires & Bodyguards series, but this one goes a bit further by adding Ancient Greek mythology to the mix! All I can say is WOW! And even though this is book 8, it can be read as a standalone. The series is one I highly recommend you dive into!

Theo is a dragon shifter who returns home after 10 years away in the Foreign Legion. Nothing has changed much. Anenomodolos is still divided-one side ruled by dragons and the other side carries a spell to protect it FROM dragons. After fulfilling his father’s demands of military service, he has come home to claim his inheritance a changed man. No longer the playboy he was, Theo sets about righting some of the past wrongs too. And even though his father is pushing him to marry, he is pushing back. Does he really have to marry?? Then he meets Zoey. She’s an archeologist on a dig there. There are instant sparks. A quick friendship gradually turns to love. Can Zoey past muster with his father? Will Theo marry anyone just to get his inheritance? You will have to find out the answer as you follow their journey!

Anna always does a phenomenal job of making you feel like you are right there in the book. Her descriptions and background of the areas are second to none! With the added Greek mythology aspect, there is a lot of explanation, but not too wordy to bore you! The plot weaves around and you are hooked! If you have a chance to listen to the audiobook narrated by Kelsey Osborne, you are in for a treat! Kelsey brings this book alive!

All in all, one of the best in the series!
