This story is a paranormal, new adult romance with a human mate story and a dragon shifter reverse harem. The story itself is complex, with many secrets and fated mates in the mix. This book intrigues me and has some similar tropes to Twilight. I would say that even though it is different, it gives me the same vibes. I love Hayden, but she is clueless and acting purely on emotion. But of course, the swoony, fiercely protective men are the main characters. This story ends on a cliffhanger, but I...

Warning: Contains potential spoilers: To begin with, I was captivated by the premise of this book. Dragon shifters are currently quite popular, and I found the plot intriguing. However, I couldn't help but feel that the story would have benefitted from an additional 100 pages dedicated to character development, storyline expansion, and interactions with the main character. Unfortunately, there was a glaring lack of character development for the main protagonist. She seemed to merely conform to...
