What happens when the man of your dreams isn't the one you love?
A father is dying. Two faithful, loving sons are left behind. The dragon world demands that one become the king in his father's stead. Xander, as eldest, is the chosen one, but he doesn't want the burden. He walks away from his birthright. So, Aegeus is left to handle it.
According to the rules, Aegeus must marry a human woman to gain his throne. In dreams he meets her and tries to force a love that was never meant to be. Too soon his time for wooing runs out. In a desperate move he kidnaps his bride, who believes she is still in dreamland.
With Aegeus too busy learning how to be king, he has no time left over to spend with his future mate. Xander must step in to keep her company. The attraction between them is too hard to resist. Two hearts will yearn for one another, but their love cannot be allowed to consume them. They can't hurt a man they both care about.
Hearts are easily broken and dreams can't give what a heart desires. Marissa is confused, but she is also loyal to a fault.
Will Marissa sacrifice her life and mate with the future king or will she obey her heart?
Arc review for honest review. This is a story of choices and love. When Marissa is at Brown collage her parents give her a choice and in her dreams gives her a choice that brings her to dracovallo. Cute.
Liked the story idea but the writing was a little meh. I also just needed a little more world building, but this was a nice short read. Great when you need a quick standalone read after finishing a long series.
