What do dragons, knights and romance have in common? Grab a copy of multi-published author Daryl Devore’s medieval fantasy romance – The Last Dragon and discover the answer.
A sorcerer craving dominance merged with a dragon, the power overwhelmed him causing him to split into three dragons. Demora ruled thought, but was lost in time. Yidithe offered protection, shining like the light of the sun. Ayrradex craved chaos, revelling in destroying souls.
Many knights died, attempting to slay the devil beast. One knight, Prince Hawkyns, did not fear death. He’d lost everything. Away on a mission when Ayrradex attacked his father’s kingdom, Penrythe, Hawkyns returned to find his noble father – feeble and defeated. His wise mother – crazed. His beautiful wife and unborn child – dead. Only a pile of ashes remained for him to bury. He knelt before his King and vowed to slay the devil-beast or be slain.
Derry was born with powers that terrified her parents. They delivered her to a nunnery to be raised in secret. Jathe, a wise sorceress, discovered the young girl and trained her to one day use the secret hidden in her soul.
Legends spoken around campfires hinted the sole way to destroy Ayrradex was when the hearts of a knight and a golden dragon became one. But after a vicious battle with Ayrradex, the golden dragon was thought to be dead.
Can Prince Hawkyns’s bravery and Derry’s powers end the reign of the devil-beast’s terror?
Tell us about yourself as a person.
What makes you different from other people?
I am me. I dislike doing what other people do. A salesclerk telling me – Oh, everyone is wearing that – will make me put it back and walk away.
What is your personality type?
Introvert. I sit quietly and watch the world. But once I trust you – we will be friends for life.
What was your favorite childhood game?
Don’t actually think I had one. I took dance lessons and spent my free time at class or practicing at home.
What is your favorite subject to talk about?
Wow! These are tough. I guess it would be my daughter. Who just got married the Saturday before Christmas.
What is your favorite book?
Anything by Dorothy L. Sayers. She’s a British mystery writer. If I absolutely had to choose 1 – I’d probably say – Gaudy Night.
What is your favorite meal?
Shrimp smothered in butter and Old Bay seasoning. For dessert – a luscious chocolate mousse.
Tell us about yourself as a writer.
What made you want to be a writer?
Nothing made me. I just am. I was that annoying kid in school who liked writing essays. I found it easy.
What are your favorite books for writing advice?
Not books – people. When I have a writing question, I prefer to ask a human for help. It’s more personal and I get a faster response.
What are your favorite reference books?
Duck Duck Go. It is a search engine that doesn’t track its users. There is nothing I can’t search for there.
When you go to a convention, what kinds of things do you take along?
Never been to a convention. Last conference I signed up for was 20+ years ago and I backed out a month before as the Back Street Boys were performing in town and my tween was about to lose her mind!!
What’s your best advice for a new writer?
Find a critique group. It’s not easy. Try locally. Try online. But find one. You cannot edit your own work.
What are your writing goals for the next year or so?
I don’t make goals. I’ve got a WIP I’d like to finish. If I get it done – I get it done. If not…

Daryl Devore Social Media
Two writers in one. Daryl Devore writes hot romances with sexy heroes and strong heroines. Victoria Adams is Daryl’s alter ego when she’s inspired to write sweet romances with little to no heat.
Daryl lives in an old farmhouse in Ontario, Canada, with her husband, two black cats – Licorice and Ginny-Furr Purrkins – and some house ghosts. Her daughter is grown and has flown the nest. Daryl loves to take long walks on her quiet country road or snowshoe across the back acres, and in the summer, kayak along the St. Lawrence River. She has touched a moon rock, a mammoth, and a meteorite. She’s been deep in the ocean in a submarine, flown high over Niagara Falls in a helicopter, and used the ladies room in a royal palace. Life’s an adventure and Daryl’s having fun living it.
