Genres; Young Adult, Paranormal, Romance
2 Stars (and that is generous)

1st, I'm sorry Starr, but this was a massive failure. It was so boring it took me 9 days UNDER 300 pages. That may be an all time record for me.

The 2 stars are for the fact I found no typo's nor editing errors and no grammatical nor sentence problems. In that area the book is well written. But..........OMG! A snail can run faster than this book. It was like reading a textbook from school! You know, the ones you have to read to get a good grade and it nearly puts you to sleep after reading just one paragraph. This author even goes so far to give us estensive history lessons!

As far as 'Sex Scenes' go....... well, hmmmm, trying to think of how to put this.
Ah, I got it! Think of a sex scene written by a person who only writes 'Clean' scenes, avoids all use of any words that may be considered 'naughty, indelicate, colorful, intimate, or ADULT and there you go. That is your Steamy sex scene.

All the characters are boring. The world build is boring. The dialogue is boring. The entire book is Boring!. The best part is the very beginning. After that, it works best as a sedative. Make sure you have a pillow and your favorite blanket. It will put you out.

A nice strong start to the series. Very good writing style and well thought out world building. Good immersion into the dragons' world without so much explanation that you get bogged down. Information about the dragons is told only when Sara would discover it. Quinn is a very good character, very sympathetic and you really root for him to find true love. Sara also is a very strong character who does a good job rolling with the punches. ( )

The romance faded in the fire of the dragon shifter story and superb world building. ( )

I enjoyed it for what it was, but it felt like it could have been so much more. There were times I wasn't anxious to pick the book up.

Not sure if I will continue with the series or not. ( )

There are two factions of dragon shifters, those that want the earth to themselves and those that protect all of earths treasures. Quinn is the Smith and Sara is his destined mate and their joining has been prophesized. The Smith has been alone for a long time and isn't sure he can trust anyone but he knows he wants to protect Sara.
