Daruss: A Gay Dragon Shifter Romance (Dragon Skull MC Daddies Book 1) Kindle Edition

4.3 out of 5 stars 378 ratings

One is his enemy. The other is his fated mate. Daruss has never had so much to fight for.


Dragon shifter Daruss Oyen has everything to lose. After a rival club starts a war over territory, Daruss is there to fight for the family he’s found. But everything changes after he falls in love with a snarky human named Jude, who happens to be the rival club’s spy.

While he’s determined to keep Dragon Skull MC together and somehow get his boy back, he meets his fated mate along the way. Daruss wonders if a sweet and innocent college graduate could ever go for bad boy biker like him.

But when Jude and Raylee are threatened, Daruss and the Dragon Skulls will have to win the fight if they're going to make it out alive.

Daruss is the first novel in the Dragon Skulls MC Daddies. This steamy Paranormal Romance features a dragon shifter Daddy who’s even more dangerous with his biker family by his side, a sassy human who’s lived a hard life and will do anything to protect a sweet guy like his Daddy’s fated mate, and an innocent college grad who know nothing about bad boys and Daddies. If you like a lot of sexy time between a Daddy and his boys with a happily ever after and danger thrown in, then you’ll love this spicy romance.

Buy Daruss to find out how a Daddy handles two mates at once.

    I love shifter romance. When I found this series I was intrigued. This first book was exciting and kept me reading until the end. I’m going to start Mtchell’s book next.

    This is my fists time ding April Kelley’s works and it certainly won’t be the last time. Definitely recommend.

    This book was not a bad read. However, it just wasn't my style. The characters were interesting and the plot is good and easy to follow. The structure of the story is what threw me off. The middle of the book more or less felt like it was interrupting the rest of the story, not flowing with it, in my opinion.

    Such a great story. Being able to get history for all the MC’s involved helps understand them better. The alpha protecting his mates and the mates protecting their alpha.

    You couldn’t ask for a better story. I can’t wait to read the next book in the series.

    What do they say..."don't knock it until you try it"? I read the St Lakes and Wingspan series and loved them. I thought I would give the Dragon Skulls a chance. I loved the character Daruss. Think, Jax from SOA. But I learned the Daddy kink isn't for me. I read other books with a chosen and fated mate but for some reason I didn't like how this fated mate was made to feel. Maybe just me. Maybe I judged them too harshly because of the Daddy trope. If you liked the other series I'd say at least try this one and see if you like it.

    I like triad stories partly because the dynamics are that much more complex and if well written they are interesting. I definitely found this first book in this series by April Kelley to be interesting and also a wild ride in many senses of the word. Combining dragon shifters and a motorcycle club with daddy/boy dynamics she does a great job of keeping us on the edge of our seats with this paranormal story. A good indication that more interesting stories will be coming.
