What ARC Readers Are Saying
THIS BOOK! OMG! I don't know even where to start! Loved the beginning chapters! Especially the time spent between Burton and Abi. Priceless. The luxurious trip to Japan and the cultural experiences are absolutely immersive. The love triangle is growing more and more vividly by the day-keeps me stealing time reading instead of finishing homework-LOL. The suspense has ramped up, along with the mystery of who is doing this to them. The romantic moments between Shane and Abi have hit another level. Team Shane or Team Burton? Still a tough question to answer. - Lily. W.


LOVING THIS BOOK! Lots of crazy / scary activity happening that is keeping me on my toes! Many butterfly and emotion- filled moments! OMG, this whole revenge thing is scary...but the fact that it's against the WOMEN HE LOVES!!! Oh, my heart! What is killing me, is that you have made it so difficult to guess who Abi will end up with! LOL Both guys have negatives and positives. Either one would be a good choice - but in the end, who will inevitably stand out and steal her heart. 💗 Can hardly wait to find out. - Adriana. S.
I’m not a huge reader so it’s hard for me to find an author or type or storyline / writing style that captures my attention and keeps my interest. But you have done that and more! Every book I've read of yours I haven’t wanted to put down and that says a lot! LOVING RED DRAGON! I am so invested in the characters-like BEYOND. This story's concept is amazing. - Caitlin. G.
YOU'VE FUELED MY LOVE FOR READING AGAIN! Since reading Black Lyon and Dark Demon, I have been literally pining for Book 3! I'm on Chapter 32! Holy! This story is unlike anything I've ever read. Excitement. Suspense. Romance. Mystery. It's got it all. Feel like I am in Japan the moment I start reading each block of chapters. Honestly, I am just amazed by the depth of the content. Your descriptions create movie imagery. I can visualize everything. Incredible detail. Loved the location notes at the start of each chapter. I am taking the journey as you suggested! Thank you for allowing me to be an ARC reader for you. I have loved this experience. Sad that this is Book three and the story is coming to the end. - Taylor. Y.

What To Expect Inside Each Book?

IN BOOK THREE OF
THE ABI ACARDI SERIES
Two weeks before Christmas—the first without her Mother—Abi Acardi celebrates her birthday surrounded by friends. That night, Burton overhears Jade and Reggie’s dilemma and offers the ultimate solution: a lavish winter wedding in Japan. Five-star hotels, once-in-a-lifetime adventures, the pulse of Dark Demon raves, and their nuptials to brighten the holiday festivities.
Invited along, Abi and Shane believe the getaway comes at just the right time since it will give them space to make decisions about their future. Keeping secrets from each other, both have news they have yet to share.
Touching down in Osaka days later, their journey leads into the heart of Kyoto. At first, it’s everything they dreamed of—bamboo forests, golden temples, and snow-dusted shrines. But the beauty doesn’t last. From the icy steps of Kifune to the endless torii gates of Fushimi Inari, strangers creep from the crowds, each branded with the same chilling symbol.
While Burton and his team search for answers, the encounters become more threatening until the danger can no longer be ignored. They know somewhere in this historic city, a Red Dragon is watching as a twisted game unravels piece by piece.
IN BOOK FOUR OF
THE ABI ACARDI SERIES
Leaving Kyoto behind, Burton, Abi, and their friends hope Osaka will finally give them room to breathe. But a single day in the city is all it takes for everything to spiral out of control.
Forced to flee to Tokyo ahead of schedule, Abi walks through crowded streets but can’t shake the dread of being watched. Even when surrounded by layers of security, every step outside their hotel feels like she’s testing fate. The tension seeps into everything, widening the distance between her and Shane. Amid her fear and doubt, Burton remains close, offering strength and support when she needs it the most.
By the time they reach Niseko, the powdery slopes, glittering lights, and majestic scenery seem to promise a peaceful Christmas escape. But that happiness is short-lived when a sudden accident nearly claims someone’s life, and they uncover the chilling truth. It wasn’t an accident at all.
Before leaving Japan, they attend the exclusive NIGHTFALL event as planned. Staged beneath the shadow of Mount Yōtei, Red Dragon’s deadly game comes to a fiery end. One by one, their friends vanish, and within the hour, Abi suffers a devastating blow that changes her world forever.
LOVE BROUGHT THEM TO JAPAN.
BUT WILL RED DRAGON LET THEM LEAVE?
IT ALL COMES DOWN TO THIS.
