Book Description
LUCIAN: I am a Dragon Prince of the House of Smoke… and I am dying. Five hundred years is truly enough for a man like me. A monster. Yet a ten-thousand-year treaty will die with me, if I don’t spawn a dragonling to take my place. My two brothers are no use in this task. It falls to me, the eldest by a hair’s breadth, and yet, I cannot face the horror of another sealing. Another death. Another woman’s blood on my hands.
ARABELLA: I was saved from death in a dark Seattle alley by an impossibly beautiful man swooping in on golden wings. Now he’s kidnapped me, taken me to his lair, and given me an absurdly simple task—find him a mate. Only then will he set me free. He’s rich, powerful, and the heat off his smoking-hot body is melting my panties. This guy is unlucky in love? Something’s not right. And I know one thing deep in my bones: all men lie. Even the dragon kind.
BEAUTY AND THE BEAST: He needs her more than he wants; she wants him more than she should; and the fate of both the mortal and immortal worlds depends on not just repairing their hearts, but finding a Love that’s True…
My Review
Lucian Smoke is a 500 year old Prince and a dragon shifter. His time is running out to mate with someone and crate a dragonling to carry on the after he is gone and secure the treaty. There's only one problem, he isn't sure he can try again with another woman because the last woman he loved, died. But when he saves Arabella and she realizes what he is, he has no choice but to kidnap her and ask for her help to find a mate. He tells her that after she helps him that he will let her go but he has to make sure that he can trust her enough to keep his dragon secret.
Arabella isn't sure at first what she's gotten herself into by agreeing to help find the dragon prince a mate but he seems true to his word. As time goes on and they spend more time together, it's obvious that Lucian feels things for Arabella and even though she thinks she's not good enough for him, she has feelings for him too. It's takes a while for these two to really open up and tell each other the truth but when Arabella is put into serious danger, Lucian will let nothing stand in his way of saving her.
Oh this was a good one. The drama, backstory and action was so good but nothing compared to the romance between these two. I loved them as a couple.
I give this book 4 out of 5 stars.
