Betrothed to the Dragon by Kara Lockharte

if that makes sense.Īt any rate, I will not be reading more in this series. And the romance just didn’t seem to be appropriate in the aspect of ‘the worlds gonna end but hang on, let me get my rocks off real quick’.

They made it sound that way with the dragons ability to protect her, but even then he wasn’t really able to, so that fell short. And I found the romance to be a bit….extra? Like, it wasn’t necessarily needed to move forward in the story. I don’t know, it was kinda all over the place with the saving the world stuff. I also didn’t like that the dragons existence was the reason the evil was there in the first place.

And I that’s not really my thing, I like to know more about the background, it helps to build my connection to the characters and the story. It seemed as if there were some bad guys that were after Sophia but the reason they are after her is a bit vague. That said, the story wasn’t that great either. The characters were a bit superficial and one dimensional but the story helped to even it out. “You both can keep eye-fucking each other in the back seat. “Hey,” said Lucas, his voice slightly bored, as if he was used to picking up naked and dirty people from in front of a flaming building in the middle of the night on a regular basis. One hunted by the immortal monster that killed my parents.Īnd now, I just discovered how grandma found us refuge in America, how she thought she could save me. One who would rather pretend to be human than to rule them. Reality? I am shen, but the worst kind of shen there is. Across all nations, all cultures, my family was once worshipped as gods, cursed as demons and shunned as otherworldly creatures. You may know of my family from stories of an older age. I like to pretend I’m just another immigrant trying make her way in New York City…but I’m not.

He thinks he knows what he’s getting with me. I know what he truly wants: access to my family’s power. His magic calls me, his heat enthralls me and my mind melts at the touch of his inhumanely hot hands on my skin. Only this monster is perfection in human form: all rippling golden muscle and more gorgeous than anyone who shifts into a scaled monstrous beast has a right to be. The immortal monster that ate them all, still hunts me.Īnd my grandmother thinks that the only way to save me from the monster is to marry me to another monster: a dragon. Unlike the rest of my once powerful family, I have no magic. If I don’t marry him, I’m as good as dead.

I’m engaged to a stranger, a man - dragon.
