He was royalty. His killer was dangerous…just his type
Government assassins like James Shepherd are highly trained to take their assignments, dispose of their targets, and move to the next assignment without second thought. But when James botches an assassination, he has to prove himself to the assassin’s society by taking the job no one else wants—a foreign prince with a target on his head.
Prince Milo, the so-called deity of his remote Pacific island, is renowned for his ebony scales, the result of a haunting past. His discovery by the US government necessitates a trip to the states. When his government-appointed guide quits at the last minute and is replaced by the handsome James Shepherd, Milo can’t believe his luck.
But not all is as it seems, and as the two men begin to fall for each other, danger lurks ever closer. Will their love be strong enough to save them?
Je vous avoue que je suis un peu déçue par cette lecture 🙁
Le résumé promettait pourtant, mais retrouver des fautes, ainsi qu’un James qui se transforme en Jacques à plusieurs occasions …
Si je passe outre ces deux soucis, l’histoire en elle-même est pas mal du tout, bien que vu le nombre de pages, vous pensez bien que c’est assez rapide pour la mise en place de la partie romance. Niveau fantastique avec le côté paranormal, c’est assez léger, même un peu trop je trouve, mais cela ne gâche pas la lecture, sauf si vous vous attendez à avoir beaucoup de ce genre lors de votre lecture.
Pour le reste, eh bien l’histoire est assez bien tournée et prenante à lire, les personnages sont cohérents et la fin surprenante. Vhacun joue son rôle, et au final, c’est ce que l’on aime dans une lecture. Donc, si moi, je suis malgré tout déçue, vous êtes maintenant au courant des deux principaux soucis que j’ai rencontré, du coup, vous savez à quoi vous en tenir lors de votre découverte.
This left lots to be desired from the start a man in a loin cloth. Only one person to protect him. A your bus that really didn't your anything. A cross country trip that wasn't, missing parts to the story. Why the president wanted the Prince killed. Being in a city in a loin cloth, and all this happening in a days . Too far fetched even appears the author was tired of it to end it so quickly.
This wasn't very good. Not going to spend many words on it. 2-d characters, pacing all over the place, did not feel the MCs connection let alone that they were supposed to be soulmates. Dragon was not dragon-y. Could have been an interesting take that he was injected with dragon DNA and then only became a dragon instead he just seemed human and not very interesting at that. Shall not be putting on my dragon shelf.
I enjoyed watching an assassin fall in love (soul mates) with the person (Milo) he was supposed to snuff out. The story was well done (although they could have communicated a bit more) and I truly loved the ending and how they saved the ligers from being used for entertainment. Overall, it touched my heart and left me with a smile. Enchanting and sweet romance. =)
