The Innocent Anthropologist by Nigel Barley

He's an antisocial dragon shifter with a serious sweet tooth. She's a pastry chef who won't give him any sugar.


Blinded in an ambush, dragon warrior Wallaig has spent half a century in the dark with one thing on his mind-vengeance. When the rogue faction responsible returns to Scotland and targets a human female, he saves her life, determined to exact his revenge-even if it means using her as bait.


Smart-mouthed Amantha Leblanc is pastry chef with dreams of opening her own shop. The money is in the bank. Her mission is clear. The plan goes to hell the second Wallaig breaks into her apartment and she defends herself with a rolling pin. With a rogue pack of dragons circling, she is forced to rely on a man she doesn't like-but isn't able to resist.

Nigel Barley was born south of London in 1947. After taking a degree in modern languages at Cambridge, he gained a doctorate in anthropology at Oxford. Barley originally trained as an anthropologist and worked in West Africa, spending time with the Dowayo people of North Cameroon. He survived to move to the Ethnography Department of the British Museum and it was in this connection that he first travelled to Southeast Asia. After forays into Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, Japan and Burma, Barley settled on Indonesia as his principal research interest and has worked on both the history and contemporary culture of that area. After escaping from the museum, he is now a writer and broadcaster and divides his time between London and Indonesia.
