Fire, Blood, and Beauty

A Reverse Harem Romance

By: Zara Zenia

Narrated by: Victoria Mei

Two alien dragon shifters. Two vampires. A whole new world. And I’m in the middle of it all.

One minute, I’m a 19-year-old woman trying to get through life, and the next second I’m in space, charged with saving the human race on an alien planet.

Four men show up vowing to love and protect me...except they aren’t men at all, they're alien dragon shifters and vampires.

They say we’re mates. I say they’re crazy.

I’m charged with a mission: Have their baby.

Um, how about no.

They say it’s destiny. I say I’m a long way from home!

Fire, Blood, and Beauty is a full-length, reverse-harem romance with passion and suspense, including elements from paranormal, sci-fi, and fantasy. There is no cliffhanger and a guaranteed happy ending!

Great Narration & Good Story!

Disclaimer: My copy of the audio version of this book was provided by the narrator for an unbiased and honest review.

When the chance to listen to a story filled with supernatural creatures and romance came my way, I eagerly jumped at the chance to have the opportunity to hear it out.

I have not really dabbled too much into the reverse harem romance genre, but decided why not? How can having aliens/dragon shifters, vampires, and wolves in the mix go wrong? I enjoyed the overall story, but some parts left me disappointed.

The story itself takes some time to gradually lead up to bigger and better events, but the ending and possibilities makes me hopeful that there is another book in the works.

However, the one thing I'm still not sure of - and maybe I missed the explanation at some point - was why are the wolves the enemy? I wish more of the background history was explored as to how the wolves became the enemy to both the dragon and vampire species...and how are the same wolves on Earth the same enemy on an alien planet? Again, maybe I missed this at some point as I listen to the audio version while at work and could of easily been sidetracked.

Then there's the whole deal with the virgin-inexperience girl who ends up sleeping with all four of these guys in such a short period of time...lose virginity to dragon king, sleeps with vampire following day. Plus, two other guys afterwards...WTF? Super pregnancy follows with gifted child that grows so fast and impresses them all...in which he must save them all from the enemy.

Okay, since this is a supernatural fiction story, I will allow the possibility of all the above to happen and look past the questionable parts that left me thinking WTF?

But...I still don't get how the son is the prophecy to bring peace to the world and destroy the enemy. All he did from what I recall is make the alien planet green again and bringing hope to the people. The wolves stay at bay, but they aren't destroyed and there was not some fierce battle to happen which I was kind of hoping for when getting to the end of the story. Major let down on this end.

Again...maybe it gets better in a possible book two?? o.O

Overall, I enjoyed the story and loved the audio version. Zara Zenia did a good job putting it together, though some parts did lack and more to this story is definitely needed. Victoria Mei did a superb and believable narration when dealing with the male voices for all species as well as the human girl. Thank you again for this opportunity.

Fantastic!

Zara Zenia makes this story feel real. Victoria Mei brought it to life.
The electricity crackles through the air with Eva being human with her two vampires and two dragons. Eva was seen as the one chosen in the prophecy of saving the three races. Would the prophecy come true? You have to give this a listen!

It’s all in the title

She is a human that only wants the peace, quiet of the forest that is her home. It’s where she has wanted to be even before the death of her father and after when her mother and sister moved away and asked her to move with them she refused.
Then four strangers come into her life telling an unbelievable tale, that she is the chosen one to save them all. They however excluded one detail, but when it’s revealed to her its to late she has fallen in love with all of these extraordinarily handsome creatures and will do as they have asked.
Not your typical paranormal, sci-fi romance it’s a little avant-garde, but sexy and spicy.
Was gifted this audible book by the narrator and enjoyed her voice, thank you, Victoria Mei

This dragons and vampires helped me to get out of a book funk

I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

So a reverse harem paranormal romance with dragons and vampires huh? What at amazing ride it was! This was my first book by this author and I can say it won't be my last.
What if one day out of the blue you find out you're the only one who can save three different species? Let alone discover at the same time that dragons and vampires are a real thing! And by the way hot as Hell! Would you leave everything you know behind and go to another planet to fulfill your destiny? Well, our heroine doesn't have much of a choice on the matter, it's either that or get killed by the ’evil’. And from there the story gets more and more complex, and you get more and more hooked and next thing you know, you finished the book in one day! And I didn't expect it to end like that.
The narrator was good although at the beginning I had trouble to differentiate between the male character’s voices. Thankfully the book is written in such a manner that you can identify them easily.

confused

This is one of those stories that is so confusing that you wondered if the author was drunk at the time. Story went all over the place and was a tad boring to boot. Had to download book two to see if cleared up the confusion, but no! It was worse. Do not waste your credits or money on either!

Fire, Blood, and Beauty

I really wanted to give thisbe book a 5 start but had to do 4. I loved the story but I feel like the first half was drawn out and wish it would get to the point of the prophecy.
I like narrator, Victoria Mei but this book she sounded kind of different than usual.

missing chapter 44

This book is missing chapter 44 dont know what happen. hope later will adding that chapter

Great Read

Fire, Blood and Beauty was a great Read by Zara Zenia. This is the first book in the Vampire Dragon Shifter Reverse Harem Series. Eva has secluded herself in the woods who comes across four men that change her life. Taylor and Brendt are Dragon shifters; Morgan and Lucas are vampires. The five of them must work together to complete the prophecy that will bring everyone together. This was a good read by the author.

Enjoyed Listening

Fire blood and beauty is a Sci-Fi Paranormal Reverse Harem novel. This fantasy adventure was an interesting story and very descriptive with I liked and while I enjoyed the sci-fi aspect of it the aggressive behavior of the 2 younger men in the story was a bit annoying at times. The story was filled with suspense, twist and turns, steamy scenes and a prophesy to fulfill. I listened to the audible version of this novel and I really enjoyed it. The narrator was able to capture the different characters and do justice to them. It was a good read and I enjoyed it.

Love a little fantasy!

I am a Zara Zenia newbie. I really didn't know what to expect simply because this isn't normally my type of genre but I really did enjoy the story. I would definitely read more of her work in the future. I was also new to Victoria Mei. She did an outstanding job with multiple characters and truly enjoyed listening to her. I will definitely look for more of her work.


I received this audible in exchange for a fair and honest review.
