⭐⭐⭐.5/5
🔥🔥🔥/5
Good story plot? Check. Badass Heroine and Protective Hero? Check again. Spicy scenes with a… tail? Double Check.
This book was absolutely nothing like I thought it would be going in. For starters, I thought this would be just another “fated mates” PNR, but I can say whole heartedly that I have never read a book like this before. Cam had already found and lost his fated mate (and dragons only got one), so they just fell in love on their own, without a bond pushing them together.
Charlie is on the run from her coven after escaping her crazy, abusive ex-fiancé. Cameron has run away from his clan looking for freedom. They meet on a hike in a small Scottish town, and one could say she fell (off a cliff) for him on that mountain top. One night. That’s all they agreed to. But when Cam’s past comes knocking, Charlie ends up caught in the dragon crossfires. Being forced into a mate bond for her survival wasn’t on her list of to do's. She didn’t go from spending years crawling out of her last prison just to end up in another. But can she really just leave? Can she leave Cam and the other girls that were forced into abusive mate bonds, like she was with her coven?
Charlie, while seriously boneheaded, is also a complete and total badass. She had walls built to the moon, and not only did Cam break those down, but she also helped break his down as well. Cam was possessive and Protective, and I loved it!!
I will say I would have liked to see her use her new mate bond witch powers more, but I did like how mating with her made Cam stronger (usually it’s the girl getting stronger because of the guy).
This book was not as spicy as I thought it would be, but it still had a few good scenes (some with a tail), and the plot was so fast paced, and action packed that I didn’t even really notice.
All in all, this was a fun book to read, and I will definitely be reading more from this author in the future.
Thank you to the author for letting my ARC read this book.
