This is the eleventh book in series, Robyn and Ridge are the main characters in this book
This was a simply wonderful addition to the series and I guarantee that other readers that are in this series as completely as myself will find this to be a simply wonderful read and I guarantee that you will not be able to put this book down until you reach the end of this story.
The couple are attached to each other and yet they refuse to acknowledge the fact and yet chemistry has a sense and when it makes a decision it is simply a matter of time. Robyn and Ridge both find themselves in the same establishment and allow themselves one night, when they forgot everything except their attraction for each other their passion soared and they had left each other the following day and they had not repeated this action.
This is a story that if filled with heat, temper, passion and a chemistry between the main characters that will keep readers captivated throughout,
I thoroughly enjoyed the book and look forward to reading any future publications; keep up all the wonderful writing.

Awesome!

Waited a long time (or so it seemed, lol!) for this book and the wait was definitely worth it! One of Charlene’s bestin my opinion. Lots of steam but with plenty of intrigue and mystery around who is behind the war between the dragon islands. Someone(s) wants to sabotage the dragons coming into their own and their relationship with the humans who love and support them. I love her characters who are depicted so well and Ridge and Robyn do not disappoint. Both emotionally injured by circumstances in their past but are immediately attracted to each other and neither really don’t know how to handle it. Lots of tension both sexually and emotionally are generated between them as they are forced to interact due to ongoing conflict between the two dragon isles and the human mainland. This book was close to 500 pages but it kept me riveted so that I finished it in just a few hours. Highly recommend!

This is the eleventh book in this series and it’s so good! I thoroughly enjoyed this book from the very first page to the last! Ridge and Robyn were both such great characters and an absolute adorable couple! They made me laugh quite a bit while they tried to figure everything out. These two definitely had some issues but I’m glad they finally got it together. My heart went out to them both actually for the things that they have to deal with and gone/going through. The suspense had me turning the pages and I definitely didn’t want to put this book down! A very enjoyable and entertaining read that I very highly recommend! Can’t wait for the next one! This is my honest opinion of this complimentary copy of this book

This series has been fabulous switching between the dragon islands and the mainland uncovering the truth of what has been happening as it expanded.
Now we are at the stage where the truth is out there and the dragons are dealing with the fallout from what has been done to both races.
Robyn is the head of the medical facility and Ridge has been sent to supposedly investigate security issues at the facility but in truth he is there to find out who has been passing information to the mainland.
Things are complicated as they had met previously without knowing what they both were involved with but the fire was there from the start.
This series is never boring and you just don’t know where it’s going each time but this one is definitely a great read.

Robyn and Ridge’s story is book 11 in the Dragon Tributes series by Charlene Hartnady. I loved this story ! The sexual heat between these two is 4🌶️’s hot and it’s so cute how they both deny they want or need a relationship. They meet at a bar, have a one night stand and that should be the end of it… except it’s not ! 6 months later he’s at her hospital investigating her for possible treason. Talk about awkward! Things get tense, and the investigation blows up in Ridge’s face. Read this funny, well written story full of heat and heart. 5✨’s . I received a copy of this book from the author and I am choosing to leave this review.

Bound by Fire🔥

Another great story in the Dragon Tributes series❣️

Robyn and her bestie Carla go out to celebrate one night after landing promotions at work. They meet two shifter dragons and coincidentally end up going home with both…individually😉

A few months later Ridge is asked to investigate some claims about people working on the island and relaying information to the Mainland…but it soon becomes clear nothing is as it seems😳

I enjoyed this story of Ridge and Robyn, as it was slightly different to the rest but is also answering some questions about what’s been happening on the island and in previous books. A must read🙌 I received an advanced copy and voluntarily leave my honest review🐉
