I’ll keep her out of harm’s way… even if that means risking her love for me.

This is the fourth book in this series. Ricktors story was by far the most intense and on the edge of your seat suspense of all so far.
It was clear Rictor was going to struggle with the water dragons , but the reasons were far different from expectation.
One twist after another, so many emotions to deal with while I was reading this.
I really enjoyed it.
Trevors really got his work cut out for him.. the next book will be interesting!

There was something very sweet about this emotional romance. I enjoyed Ricktor and Marina's story. Filled with drama, raw emotions, action and twists, the book held my attention well. I really felt for Ricktor. I think pretty much anyone could relate to his consuming and desperate need to protect the woman he loved considering the circumstances. A very good read. This is my honest, voluntary review

Ricktor (Dragon Elements (4)

Yet another enjoyable read. Yes there is a but! 2% at the beginning & 10% at the end isn't the story, it's about anything and everything. These books are good but are a quick romance with Dragons, wolves etc . Sorry Sarah not the best I've read. I have enjoyed the 4 I've read will enjoy the next but ready for more meat on the bones. I have still given 5 stars, as what is written is done well

Great Dragon

Marina and Ricktor were fun to read and I actually had to read it a second time to do this review. Don't know how I didn't do it before. They had a rocky remeet but I'm very glad they found each other and Marina was okay. Really good story.

I think we knew where this one was going to start. The air dragons finally have what they need to free the water dragons and when they go to break the enchantment Ricktor is stunned to find that he knows them. One of them is his mate. The dragon that he thought was dead. He is thrilled, and PO’d when he finds out that her clan faked her death and kept her locked up to try to break their bonding. He is in a murderous mood. Between the treacherous water dragons and the crazy, determined wolves his mate is not safe. It is his job to protect her and he is going to kill everyone that threatens her.

Marina can’t be it when she opens her eyes and looks into the face of her long, lost mate. She had known he was in trouble and finally convinced her clan that she had to go and find out what was wrong. They had ended up enchanted and locked away for over 200 years. Everything had changed, except for her feelings for Ricktor. Unfortunately he doesn’t seem to see her the way he used to, as a wild, strong female who was meant to be his partner. He is determined to protect her, even if it means sending her away until he has vanquished all their enemies. Fat chance.

I was given an advanced copy of this book by the author. My review is voluntary.

Ricktor sets out to awaken the water dragons who were locked away by the witches spell for two hundred years. Once the spell was nullified, Ricktor went in and discovers his mate is in the cave and had been caught up in the entombment with her clan.
Marina wakes in Ricktor’s arms. She has a battle ahead to stop her mate from killing her kind for what they did to try to separate them.
The wolves kidnap Marina and plan to lock them all away again. But Mary sets her free along with Lauren Black who is a witch but has no idea of this fact. They are all rescued and Trevor claims Lauren, but she has no idea of this. I’m sure we will get this story in the next book in the series. Thank you Sarah for once again writing another epic edition to this series. I once again couldn’t put the book down till the last page. We are left wanting more..........

Finally we get Ricktor story he is the dragon who has lost his mate Marina was a sea dragon but she has disappeared and his brothers have told him that she is dead. So when they find the moonstone that will release the water dragons (Marina was one) he volunteers to do it after all it could be dangerous and his newly mated brothers shouldn't risk been killed as he knew how it felt as a mate with a dead partner and he was also a little jealous and no longer wanted to be around his happy brothers. Imagine his surprise when he releases the door and finds the water dragons stirring and there in the corner is his mate Marina Her family hadn't approved of her mating with a fire dragon and had kept her prisoner then she became involved in the trap that contained all the water dragons now they will have to fight for their future as a couple will her family let her be with a fire dragon this time or will they try to tear her away again. You will have to read to see

Ricktor was at the cave with his brothers and their mates he was jealous that his brothers had found their mates because Ricktor had one once Marina who was a water dragon then she disappeared but the other dragons told him that she was killed and that left him half a man. They had the moonstone to free the water dragons and he said that he will do it because he didn’t want anything to happen to any of his brothers and that would leave their mates alone he knows what that feels like. When Ricktor opens the cave door he saw a load of bodies on the floor that started to groan he recognised most of them then in the corner Ricktor recognised the red hair he ran over to her it is his mate it is Marina and Ricktor felt like crying he thought that his mate was dead. Wow what a fantastic story I love this whole series and I highly recommend this book it’s definitely well worth the read.

Love conquers all, even fear!

This Air dragon, Ricktor, though that he had lost his mate a long time ago. However, life surprised him when he found his mate among the Water dragons their family awaked through the moonstone. He was astonished and happy at the same time, but he was feared to lose her again. Marina should fight against fear, rage, anger and both their insecurities to find and to reconnect her lost love, to be acknowledged as his equal and his mate. ¿Would love conquers all, among external and internal enemies? You should find out.

Wonderful work from Sarah J. Stone, which continues these Dragons Elements’ story. Great characters’ development and captivating reading. You want to continue reading the whole plot.

Never assume! Always fact check, if it's important to you. Riktor, secretly mourning his mate marina, who he thought was killed. He hadn't told his brothers about her. When it was time to revive the water dragons, he felt compelled to lead because they were her people. He was puzzled as to why they were in America though. Mary had to donate her wolf blood to activate the spell of the stone. Rik was still not fully trusting her. Mary's dad is still causing problems for the dragons. But they are up for the challenges. Lots going on in this story. They do say the path to true love never runs smoothly. Or something like that. The challenges make the couples appreciate each other even more. Great story. I received an ARC form Booksprout for a review.

This is a NON-SPOILER REVIEW. Ricktor by Sarah J. Stone is the fourth book in the Dragon Elements series. I LOVE this series. These reads get better and better, hotter and hotter and, if possible more addictive! This s a series that must be read in order because it is just so good. Ricktor's story was one I was waiting for and it was definitely well worth the wait! Sarah J. Stone gives us stories that are so well written and characters that are so well developed that you can't help fall in love with them. Make room on your keeper shelf and be prepared to read, re-read, and fall in love with this series over and over again.

Another great book to the Dragon Elements series. This is Ricktor and Marina's story. The author once again brings strong,well developed characters and weaves an entertaining story filled with tons of emotions,action and danger as well as the sizzling hot romance. She pulls you in with her descriptive writing and detailed scenes. I love how she incorporates the brothers and their mates into the story as well as introducing new characters,all who play an important role in the story. It moves quickly and smoothly and I loved reading. I'm looking forward to the next book. Highly recommend this book/series.

Ricktor believed that his mate had died before he was imprisoned now they are freeing her clan.
The Air Dragons recovered the moonstone and find the cave where the Water Dragons are sleeping. Ricktor goes in first through the underwater tunnel rather than risk the brother who have mates. Once clear of the tunnel he calls for the other to come through so they can use the Moonstone to free them. Moving away the stone that blocks the entrance to the cave they enter and Ricktor smells blood that has the scent of his mate and looking in the corner spot a slim female figure surrounded by dried blood. As the spell is broken she starts to stir and he realizes that his strong wiled mate was not dead but had been hidden from him.

Water and Fire

Another good book in the Dragon Element series.

Ricktor is such closed off fierce dragon that none understand the depths of his pain. He is closest to his animal side than the others. It makes him a fierce dragon fighter.

Marina is a fierce water dragon willing to fight to protect her mate. Little does she understands the fight she will have to face is going to be against those that she loves.

Glad to read about Ricktor he is so stubborn and it plays out loud beautifully in this book.

4 stars

I am giving all four books 4 stars because of the poor editing and that the author forgot she had named the last unmated dragon Peter in the third book. I looked to see who edited these books but didn't find one. Ms. Stone, either use a " Grammarly" program or enlist some fellow authors, friends, or people from your VIP group to improve on the editing and quality of your work. You have a great talent for creating wonderful books so please don't ruin it with such poor quality.

Ricktor has been living in misery ever since he saw the after math of his mate Marina's death, not the best feeling to be wallowing in while his brothers are all finding their mates. Now he finds out she isn't dead but they both have a battle to work out their relationship now after what she went through and him not realising she was alive, if that isn't enough the wolfs are making more aggressive moves to try and run off the dragons. Plenty of testosterone, passion, frustration and testing times for not only Ricktor, Marina but the others in their family.

Ricktor has believed that his mate has been dead for two centuries. When he and his brothers free the water dragons from the spell the wolves put them under, he finds her very much alive. He wants vengeance against all who will harm his mate. Will his anger drive a wedge between them? Can they find a middle ground? Will the enemy pull them apart? Can you handle the intensity of wanting to know how it will all play out? The fire of their love for each other.

Riktor has mourned the loss of Marina. At last she was recovered, but the betrayal of the Water Dragons and their separation has created a rift. Now a choice must be made. Riktor is an enjoyable novel in the Dragon Elements Series that I recommend.

This series is another that I've missed since it started. I'll be going back to read the other books. The character of Riktor and Maina are awesome. Storyline is on track and there is plenty of steamy chemistry. Just couldn't put it down. Sarah J. Stone is a new author for me to keep track of.

I loved the relationship between Riktor and Marina. They are both strong and independent, but desperate to keep the other safe. This book shows what it means to be true equals in a relationship, as well as what can happen if you let fear and anger rule your decisions. I highly recommend it!

Entertaining story

This is the fourth book to the series yet it’s still a self-contained story. But it’s more enjoyable to read each story in order for some of the background stuff. Well written story with some action adventure as well as a love story.
