Why I read this book: I’m enjoying this series.

My Review:
We met Gavin previously in this series when he saved Harper – the powerful witch determined to steal power from the dragons. Gavin did what he thought was best, but it put him on a collision course with the man the fates decided was to be his mate. A dragon, no less.
Dmitri was stunned to discover his fated was the savior of the vile witch. He doesn’t want to go against his king, but his heart is telling him to accept his fate, claim the mage, and deal with the fallout after they’ve bonded.
This was an enjoyable addition to the series and I enjoyed the conflict – both internal and external – within the story. As always, Aaron Ross gave a wonderful performance and I can’t wait for the next one.
My Rating:
8.5/10 Points of Gold (85% Recommended) – Compares to 4.25/5 Stars
You wouldn’t know it to look at him, but C.K. has a love for soul mates, true love, and happily ever after. Of course, he can’t let his characters get their happy ending too easily; they have to suffer first. He’s inspired by day to day life and loves transforming the ordinary into the extraordinary in his stories.
C.K. resides in small town Florida near where he grew up. He has a large, crazy family, a prissy Chihuahua, and two mischievous cats that love each other one moment and hate each other the next–there’s no in between.
