I truly loved the basis of the book, a Beauty and Beast meets Phantom of the Opera style story with a faerie twist. Honestly I actually probably would have absolutely loved the book if it wasn’t loaded with a ton of filler dialogue... I mean I almost screamed when we started podcasting...
I am sure people with impeccable patience will love this book, I unfortunately read shorter books because of my incredible lack of.

Even though this was under 100 pages I still struggled to finish it. I am also pretty sure I had no idea what was going on most of the time. Everything was pretty much just a big understanding because no one used words to explain things and the whole point of the story just depended on all those misunderstanding being spoken out loud and everyone having that “Ah Ha� moment....

The story was not half bad but the editing was beyond atrocious. Wrong words, using the wrong persons names... multiple times...

I’ve been lagging at everything this week... Getting up in the morning... getting the kid to school... getting to work... and having a book picked out and ready to read...
I didn’t do any of those with reasonable timing this week. Therefor I end up with last minute books that may or may not be kind of be what I’m looking for...
This was not... I liked the idea... Con artist and his mark. Don’t think I’ve read many like that before...
Anyways Jake is catfishing men out of “travel� money to come see them, or course it’s all for a good cause. Dark is an overly broody dragon that’s pretty sure “Tom� (Jake) is his mate. Unfortunately Jake cons $200 from Dark and ghosts him (that’s what that’s called right? Ghosting??) Anywho Dark wants answers and goes to find Jake. Story was pretty good until there. But once Dark snatches Jake from the street and gets him to his house everything turns into that typical mediocre attempt at plot and romance..
Blah...
He had a feeling a dominant male dragon shifter like Dark had possession written in his bones, but he didn’t mind being claimed, being owned by such a splendid man.
..... being owned by such a “splendid� man.... sorry I do not want to be owned my a splendid man I want to be owned by a naughty, powerful, manly man.... not splendid.

I loved the uniqueness of Sasha psychic ability to connect with spaces vs people, it definitely brought something different to the table.
I’ll be honest though.. I was kinda bored a majority of the time. There was a little bit of financial anxiety, which imo is the worst kind of anxiety... but other than that I just wasn’t feeling it.

The clueless/naive protagonist and the lover vying for his attention is a trope I think I definitely need more of.

Really it was just a big info dump� I can’t remember if “Their Vampire Queen� also started this way but I really don’t think so.
I might read the next one to actually get a feel on how the series might go, but for now my opinion is “not promising� I hope I’m wrong. ...more
After looking through other reviews I can tell you I am truly the minority here... split between the “OMG this was sooo amazing� 5 Stars and the “OMG After looking through other reviews I can tell you I am truly the minority here... split between the “OMG this was sooo amazing� 5 Stars and the “OMG this humor was sooo juvenile� 1 Stars�
As usually I love both the humor and the amazing story line, but the romance really fell flat for me� I’m the beginning I was enjoying the buildup, but it honestly seemed to just fall flat for in the in the end. Maybe I’m broken? Am I not feeling the love anymore? Sometimes I don’t mind “not feeling the love� if the smut is good but even that was meh� am I broken??
Anyways the other issue I had was the timeline. Honestly I’m not really sure it was an issue, but more a confusion on my end. I know there was an age gap of 9 years, but it was hard for me to place Hiro’s older brothers at the same age as Maddox’s nephew� I am assuming it works out since I know Ben had his first kid really early, but it through me for a loop for a bit. ...more

Truly I already miss the whole group, I sure hope this author continues their story.
