Feats and Spells for Melee Sorcerer

[Risen Demon]

I am making a draconic bloodline sorcerer that will be prestiging to Dragon Disciple in the future. I am not allowed to multiclass or cross blood. At any rate, my stats are
Str: 16
Dex: 12
Con: 12
Int: 14
Wis: 7
Cha: 18

I would like to know what feats would be good for a build of a sorcerer who casts, but is ready to go out on the front lines. Maybe some buffs and other things of the like...

I already have Great Fortitude, Iron Will, and Toughness listed, but I would like to know some more feats.

For spells, right now I have Spark, Acid Splash, Flare, Ray of Frost and Disrupt Undead in terms of cantrips, and Color Spray and Magic Missile for 1st level spells. The draconic bloodline bonus spells are also included.

I have access to pretty much any book for Pathfinder specifically. Any and all help is welcomed with open arms!

Wait, multiclassing is banned? You should list all that is banned, prior to suggestions. Also, what is your alignment?

[Risen Demon]

Oof...should have done that. Sorry. Haha...pretty much all that is banned is anything not in a pathfinder book (no DnD conversions crossblooding, wildblooding, and multiclassing.

My alignment is Chaotic Neutral. His backstory is that he lived in a hermitage because his family wished to conceal their draconic heritage, and when his powers manifested, he hightailed it out of there so he could try to learn more about himself and his draconic power. Gold dragon bloodline, if it helps.

His purpose will be group and self buff. I would want some spells to be damage spells, but also some that can either buff myself or my allies. Feats to buff myself, and ready me for combat.

I really shoulda thought of that in the first place. my bad :P. At any rate, any and all help is greatly appreciated.

What races are you restricted to?

[Risen Demon]

Only those in the core rule book, from which I've already chosen human for the extra feat and +2 racial bonus, which I put into charisma

Well, if you're going into combat, you'll definitely want some defensive spells like Mage Armor and Mirror Image. (Greater Invisibility will be pretty nasty when you get it.) I'd also go with some of the cool touch spells most casters are afraid to use - Necromancy has some awesome debuffs if you can make a touch attack. Ghoul Touch is a nasty level 2 spell, for example.

In terms of feats, make sure to grab Combat Casting, and maybe Dodge to boost your AC a little more.

Well, taking the Eldritch Heritage feat to gain the Orc bloodline will give you some very melee friendly powers. The feral combat training feat will allow you to do more with your claws. Unless you plan to combine your claw attacks with manufactured weapons, avoid multiattack.

more likely you will use eldritch heritage for abyssal bloodline rather than orc, as orc bloodline is from Orcs of Golarion (from what I recall) which is most likely not in your DMs possession.

However check very carefully with your GM that he will allow eldritch heritage (as it could by some GM's be considered as similar to many of the things on the automatic no list)

[Risen Demon]

Hm...with the eldrich heritage feat with orc bloodline, by character level 13 my strength will be 26...sounds kinda good as a combat sorcerer...DM should allow Eldrich Heritage. As for the spells, I like them all...I already get Mage Armor as a bonus spell at 3rd level, Mirror Image will be great when I get it. Any other bloodlines I could heritage for if he doesn't allow for orc?
