Dragonfire

The Dark Kings series offers audiobooks full of adventure and romance. In the fourteenth title, narrator Antony Ferguson narrates an old gypsy legend come true through Sabina and her brother, Camlo. In Ferguson's portrayals of the Romany siblings, Sabina's voice is slow and thoughtful, as if English is not her first language, and her mentally handicapped brother's voice is even slower and a bit whiny. When the appearance of the dragon king lends credence to what has heretofore been just a tale, Ferguson lavishes the handsome hero's speech with an exquisite Scots accent. His voice wreaks havoc with Sabina's feelings, and his calling her "lass" is all she needs to fall head over heels in love. Lots of heat makes this a great listen.
