Hot Head

Drake Security, Book 1

De: Mika Nix

Narrado por: Michael Ferraiuolo

Protecting him is my job. Finding out he’s my fated mate wasn’t part of the assignment.

Lake Forrester III entered my life like a wrecking ball. Drake Security, my firm with my brothers, was hired to protect him from a stalker ex, but what Lake doesn’t know is that he’s not dealing with your average unhinged human. The unhinged wolf shifter he unknowingly dated will stop at nothing to get Lake in his clutches.

Just another day in the life of a dragon body guard.

The one thing I never expected was for Lake to be my fated mate. To say my protective instincts are on overdrive is an understatement. I’ll move mountains to keep him safe and delight in tearing the wolf apart with my bare hands if he gets too close to my mate. If it unleashes all out war with the wolf packs, so be it. I never claimed to be the level headed one.

In the meantime, my only focus is Lake and his safety. If anyone hurts him, it’ll be the last thing they do. My dragon will make sure of it.

Hot Head is book one in the exciting new series, Drake Security. It features a dragon bodyguard with anger issues, a fabulous human with more money than friends, an ex on the loose, and fated mate goodness. Dive into Hot Head and feel the burn.

Wholesome dragon/human romance

This was surprisingly wholesome. I expected it to be more rough around the edges but it was rather sweet, and well, corny. Niko and Lake are fated mates so obviously there's insta-attraction from the get go. Totally smitten.

The dragon brothers have a strong bond and while they communicate with light-hearted banter they also close ranks when one of them is in trouble.

"I am more and more sure every day that your egg was shaken before you hatched."
This tickled me. 😁

The plot is predictable and there is no angst but it doesn't always need to be about high stakes and whiplash causing twists and turns. It wasn't exactly what I expected but I still enjoyed it well enough. If you are into found family, shifters and fated mates making googly eyes at each other, this might be for you. And not to forget: narrated by fantastic Michael Ferraiuolo, which is almost enough of a reason to listen to an audiobook, no matter what it is about!🤩

🐉🐉🐉🐉 4 dragons out of 5.
4 = A very good book, entertaining and captivating!

This is going to be a good series

Well written story. A lot of detail and an interesting plot. Michael Ferraiuolo did a wonderful job bringing this story and all of the charactors to life. It'll be fun seeing how each of these brothers find there fated mates. Very good start to this series.

Worth the time and credit

A well developed story. Insta love but the author still took time to let the romance develop in a way that makes sense. The angst is from outside influences that feel real enough. The characters weren’t annoying. No silly misunderstandings or 3rd act breakups. This has everything I look for in a low-to-moderate angst romance.

Dragon shifter yes please

Michael Ferriarulo’s narration is a standout. He captures Nico’s fiery, no-nonsense personality with an intensity that makes you feel the dragon’s rage and love in equal measure. His portrayal of Lake is equally captivating, bringing out his charm and vulnerability, making their chemistry jump off the audio.

The plot strikes a good balance between action-packed moments—like clashes with the wolf shifter ex—and tender, fated-mate moments that satisfy fans of shifter romance. The story also sets the stage for the Drake Security series, introducing Nico’s brothers and hinting at future adventures.


If you love dragon shifter romances packed with danger, passion, and a protective alpha who will move mountains for his mate, Hot Head is a must-read. Nico’s fiery temper and Lake’s sharp wit make for an explosive dynamic, and their journey is as heart-pounding as it is heartwarming.

While the book ends on a satisfying note, it leaves just enough intrigue to make you eager for the next installment in the series.

Hot, swoony and fun

This book was so deliciously good. Lake and Nico are opposites attract, bodyguard, fated mate perfection and watching them get to their HEA squeezed my heart (and my funny bone) so hard. I really loved Lake and Nico’s snarky growly dynamic. The story drew me in from the very first sentence and kept me hooked until the end. It was definitely a stay up too late, cannot put it down, it should get more than 5 stars kind of book. Nico is a dragon shifter who owns a security company with his brothers. Lake is a very rich socialite who recently broke off a brief relationship/fling and is now being stalked. He is unaware that his stalker is a wolf shifter. Nico is hired to be Lake’s bodyguard and from the moment they meet there is instant sizzling chemistry and connection. While Lake and Nico work their way to their HEA and strengthen their mate bond, the story will give you all the feels - laughing, crying, swooning, cringing, teeth gritting, gasping, and cheering. It is an expertly written and engaging storyline delivered perfectly through sweet moments, steamy scenes, real life issues, imperfect characters, painful pasts, dangerous situations, evil actors, chuckles, messy families, and all the swoony love. I can’t wait to read the next story in the series with the swoony Drake brother dragons. Also I really need a cuddle hoard.

Michael Ferraiuolo did a phenomenal job narrating the story and characters into life with enough change of inflection, tone and cadence to voice multiple characters quite convincingly.

Love this series!

Loved the books I read in this Dragon series- but now listening ? Just takes it to the next level. Michael Ferraiuolo has a wonderful voice and makes these guys feel real!

Best bodyguard ever

I love bodyguard romances and this one being paranormal just made it even better! The characters had great chemistry, it was witty and when the characters finally get together super steamy. Can’t wait to purchase book two. Narration was done by one of my favorite narrators Michael Ferraiuolo, so glad for that!
