Following the death of her uncle, twenty-one-year-old CAITRIONA HAYDEN finds herself in the midst of a trio of quintessential alpha male suitors in 22nd century sovereign America where human females should be seen and not heard.
Theo Pendragon claims her as his ward, ordained to guard her through to a long-awaited destiny unbeknownst to Cait, but finds more than he expected when passion ignites within the dragon for the first time. Always drawn to the pursuit of knowledge rather than the heat of desire, powerful demigod Dante cannot deny everything his future holds in Caitriona. America's monarch, ancient vampire Corrin, has no interest in the frivolity of love, yet marrying Cait could be the answer to his continued survival.Soon, Cait goes from studying for college exams to choosing a husband knowing the consequences are eternal, the love undying, and the bond timeless.

I have been looking forward to reading this for a VERY long time, and I was definitely not disappointed! Petreshock has designed a really interesting world, with some great characters, that drew me in and kept me up very late at night. I loved the detail when it came to describing the dragons and their hierarchy, as well as the world in general. It was seriously fascinating. Also, the book gave a whole new meaning to, well, 'how to train your dragon.' Hehe! There was some serious heat to this, which was, well, enjoyable. Yeah, I'll admit it! Two small little quibbles: I had to read the first chapter a couple of times because I got a little lost. Everything was explained as things went on, but I did find myself scratching my head over the actions of a few characters. Also, I wanted to get to know Cait a little more! She seemed fascinating, but I didn't get to see her enough. I can't want to see what happens in the next book and see if a few things are explained. Overall, a very fun read and definitely something to check out!!
Have you had a chance to read this one?

DeleteHeh, I just checked out 'How to Train Your Dragon' yesterday at the library. It was cracked though, and wouldn't work. =( Also, I love this title, really pulls you in w/the awesomeness!

DeleteSounds like a really intriguing story. I always enjoy reading about dragons!
ReplyDeleteMe too! I have several favorite series that feature them :)
DeleteYikes...this book imagines a future in which women can be seen and not heard? Scary stuff!
ReplyDeleteRight? I was a little worried about that aspect--but it doesn't play too heavily into the story.
DeleteWhat a coincidence. I just purchased it. It's one of the Kindle daily deal books.
ReplyDeleteAwesome! Hope you enjoy it!
