Dragon Blood #2
Her Gingerbread Dragon
Leaving the city behind, Maddison Campbell tries to build a life for herself in the sleepy village of Glen Farley. Little did she know, when a man followed her into the bakery and saved her from a less than honest sales person, that the man would be a dragon shifter.
As soon as Luke Spence caught Maddison’s scent, he knew he had to have her—he would have her. All he had to do was convince the human woman that she was his mate.

The title of this book was so ridiculous that I felt I had to read it. The title was the best part of the book. Yeah. So this book was really boring, even if it included dragons. I think I finished it, yeah, I did, but I can't remember the ending now - that's how riveting this book was, I can't even remember it hours later. The story isn't bad, the dragon guy is kind and the girl isn't annoying, it's just boring. Nothing happens really in the book. The end.

I got this story in exchange for an honest review. I loved this story! As a person who has a disability, reading a character that has a disability and isn’t written as weak or overly independent to their own detriment is refreshing! I love Maddie’s character. She’s independent, strong, feisty, and she knows who she is! While the solution to her disability may possibly be an easier fix than my own, one can hope and dream that the fix will be that easy until the time comes! Looking forward to the next story.

Decent story
Was but Disappointed storyline did not pick up straight from last book, however Was a full story line Still good characters easily written easily read. Again the ending Is abrupt & leaves you wanting "more?" Still worth the reed And is a interesting romance But does need to be more .. Fullness in the story I feel, as if each book even being a Short story technically,Is a tiny segment Of a 2-3 day window Peak into the lives of these characters and then end.

Adorable!
Like and Maddie, just WOW! Like knew the moment that he scented Maddie outside the bakery that she was his mate. This book is a standalone novel but is the second one in the series. Stella finally gets friend and Like is thrilled with the idea of a mate. The plot is solid and takes place during the Christmas season. The characters are very well written. Enjoyable!

It was a good book
And it was. I liked it. It was campy, and the instalove was way over the top, but I liked Maddie and Luke. They were cute. Too bad the author didn’t make more of them. There were so many opportunities for more for this book. Oh well. Not my book, not my characters.

This is similar to some shifter stories I have read in the past. There is a central character in each book, which is essentially their own discovery of an unknown mate and a courtship, of sorts. Then there is the underlying thread ofthe survival of tje clan, in this case, against hunters.
This story is a little unique, that the mated female is originally blind.

While it seems humans and dragons mostly live peacefully among one another, this book showcases the prejudice and hatred some humans still hold toward the dragons. It was super unique to have a blind female lead in a book and really nice. I love how Adams recognizes the agency of the blind in their own lives.

Cute Story
Loved this story about Luke and Maddie. I was glad that see was open to being with a dragon. Glad that Maddie was written as a strong women even though she was blind. Luke only saw his mate as the beautiful and strong women she was.

Sweet and Comforting...a dragon
Luke is in town doing errands for his friends mate when he smells his mate..Maddie. He lovingly woos her but there are some things they must face since some people aren't fond of dragons. A good read.

Good short read.
Story read smoothly. The couple's accidentally encounter and along with relevant bigot community toward Dragon shifters. Still the couple endure and get their HEA. 😊

Luke and Maddie
Luke is stopping at the bakery to get gingerbread cookies and Maddie went in just before him. Luke is drawn to Maddie because she is his mate. I highly recommend this book and series. The characters draw you in and has a fast moving plot.

A holiday addition to the series.....
The first two books in this series have been great!! Luke and Maddie's story is just as engrossing as Stella and Brycen's.

Great read
Can't wait to read more of the series. Liked how he was trying to hold off the mating to make sure she was ready.

Short and Sweet.
Good book. It was really sweet and pure. I had very little conflict which I appreciated. Just a straightforward HEA. I really enjoyed it.

Great love story
Mattie may be blind but she sees into Luke's heart. Rollercoaster ride of emotions with lots of drama and heart. Great continuation to the tale.

Absolutely captivating
I truly enjoyed Maddie. She is blind but that doesn't slow anything down. It gives the romance a lot of depth. The dragons are awesome in this series.

Though not as attention grabbing as book one this is a lovely enjoyable sweet read and a great second book in this series.
I have to say I do not like this town of Glen Farley, most of the townsfolk sound like bigots, racists and that guy in the bakery was a liar and thief. The waitress in the diner putting something in their food, she should have been made to eat it.
Madison (Maddy) is visually impaired and was being taken advantage of in the village bakery, being given the wrong product and change. Luke steps in and tells her what is going on but allows Maddy to deal with the situation.
I loved the trust that flowed between them from the start and that Luke allowed Maddy to make her own decisions about what was happening between them, as long as she was safe of course.
The relationship and interaction was lovely to enjoy.
Just going off topic here I was very glad to read that Brycen from book 1 was still grovelling to Stella and was treating her like royalty.

Sweet and sexy
I loved the simplicity of this sweet love story. The plot was pretty straightforward and moved steadily. There were not a lot of wasted words which helped the pace. The characters were also basically developed. I felt like this should have been a longer story as some good plot points were under utilized. Something that bothered me was that the antagonist was not identified or introduced, and the evil doers were never confronted, unless that happens in a future installment? The other thing was the curing of the blindness and under what conditions would need to exist for that to happen. I enjoyed reading this sweet love story, I just felt that there should have been more.

Really Sweet Read by Elianne Adams
This entry in the series of quick reads is endearing with both characters being caring about each other and all those around them. Even though MADDIE had a disability being blind, it doesn't mean she's depending on others but quite capable of taking care of herself and others. He showed how much he cares by supporting and appreciate her abilities. ABSOLUTELY LOVE!! I'm SO RECOMMENDING THAT YOU PICK UP The ENTIRE SERIES BY ELIANNE ADAMS!

The story was OK, after book 1, I was a little disappointed. The umph wasn't there, the story just read OK, I was hoping to read more about Luke, one reference to gingerbreads so the name, to me, didn't fit. It could have been His blind Dragon or Blind Dragon flying. So it's an easy Sunday read. Sorry.

A must read
I would gladly give this book more than five stars if I could. I was instantly pulled in by the characters and storyline. I can't wait to read the rest of the books in this series.

Good story
I have no idea why dragons make a good story, but they do. I always want their stories to go on and on. These two books make me anxious to read the third to continue the lives of the shifters and their mates.

Luke and Maggie's story is a very enjoyable read. Again Elianne Adams has done it again. Readers will enjoy the love, intrigue, and continuous trouble that follows The Dragons.
