Publisher’s Synopsis:
Author note: This is the first of a slow burn paranormal romance series featuring a hot dragon shifter hero: heck yes, explicit scenes are in here, but you’ll have to be patient for the HEA to come.
Point of view:
3rd person. Alternating between Andi & Damian’s perspectives.
Rellim’s Thoughts:
This is the 2nd book in the Prince of the Other Worlds series. While there’s several adventures, questions answered, and some very sexy scenes – more mysteries arise and the relationship is a slow burn spanning multiple books. All the books need to be read and in order, starting with Dragon Called. There’s also a prequel, Dragon’s Don’t Date, that is fun but not necessary to the plots of the series. This review will contain spoilers to previous books.
Book 1 ended with Damian & Andi going their separate ways. Little do they know but their worlds will continue to collide and intertwine. While Andi is searching for her brother, Danny, she will encounter suspicious beings that her prior experience with Damian has taught her are probably not entirely human. Plus, the hospital she works at seems to draw supernatural trouble as well. I enjoyed getting to know Damian’s “crew” better as they’re more heavily featured in this story. Austin, Zach, & Grimalkin plus Jamison and Mills. The banter and interplay between them is a lot of fun.
My love for Romantic Suspense was sated with several action scenes, new nemeses, a frenemy, mysteries solved, and new ones uncovered. I enjoy that the story features several strong & capable women, including Andi. (There’s no TSTL heroines here). Romance wise – there’s definitely push/pull going on, but I didn’t feel like it dragged out or overtook the rest of the story. Damian & Andi both have good reasons for being wary of relationships.
I’m so ready for Dragon Fated!
Narration:
Love Victoria Mei’s narration. She does such an amazing job with all the voices and emotions that I’m sucked into this amazing world. There are dozens of characters and they’re all unique and delivered perfectly. Love listening to these books.
While I own the entire series in ebook, I did receive a copy of the audiobook from Home Cooked Books and am voluntarily leaving an honest review.
