Book Review: Dragon's Cupid Chase by S.R. Griffith
Book Description
Chels
There’s a dragon stalking me.
It’s been weeks, but I’m going to try to “get back on that horse” by going to this Valentine’s speed dating event.
Except a handsome brute prevents me from participating. The tension between us is palpable as I dive headfirst into a new relationship with this weird beast of a man.
But there is evil lurking in darkness and it wants my blood. Will I survive till Valentine’s day?
Gryndor
I don’t have my dragon anymore. Which means no hope for a fated mate.
My blackouts are getting worse.
A vampire attacked me.
There’s blood in my front seat.
What am I doing during the blackouts?
This is a fated mates short romance intended for adult audiences. There are explicit scenes.
My Review
Gryn is a dragon shifter but he and his dragon half don't speak anymore because of something that happened a long time ago. That causes him to have blackouts when his dragon beast takes over his human body and that causes more than a few problems for him.
Chels decides to try dating again but when a vampire attacks her, she thinks she's done especially since there's a dragon who's been stalking her for weeks and no one believes her. Her friend know that dragons exist but there are rules they can't break by telling a human about dragons but all that doesn't matter when she overhears them talking about dragons and she figures out she's not crazy, there really is a dragon stalking her.
The dragon in question is Gryn and he knows he's scaring her by following her but without his human half to help him not be so beastly, he's at a loss as what to do until he saves Chels from a vampire attack and they start to spend time together and he keeps her safe until the vampire can be dealt with.
This story had so much promise and could have been so good but we don't get a lot of world building and the characters just kind of fall together without much difficulty which felt wrong. Their romance felt rushed and not real. A human finds out that a dragon shifter wants her as a mate and she just falls into bed with him and is ok with the whole paranormal world right away? It didn't ring true to me at all. And then to make matters worse, the ending was so abrupt and left so many unanswered questions about Gryn and his human half.
I give this book 2 out of 5 stars.
