The Hero: Lucian – he was a dragon shifter crown prince from the house of Smoke who protects humans. His line of dragons have a treaty with the fae, requiring him to produce an heir. If he doesn’t then the fae will be able to enter the human realm whenever they please. He fell in love once before and both his mate and his youngling died. He was resolved never to fall in love again.
The heroine: Arabella – she was saved in a dark alley by a handsome golden dragon. She fell for him and found out he has been telling him lies since the start. So she planned to leave and go back to her job as a lawyer, defending poor women from their abusers and helping those who need her, but she couldn’t do it.
The Story: Something is happening in Seattle, first demons were found in the city and now vampires, who are not supposed to be around humans in a centuries long agreement. Lucien is using his sweeps of the city as a reason to stay away from his keep, and Arabella.
This book wasn’t as good as the first and I got a bit bored at times, though it was fairly short so I did finish it. I liked the characters and this one had some great supporting characters like Arabella’s friend Rachel and Lucien’s friend Kinney, in addition to his two brothers. I guess I just had an issue of the whole plot of this book being Arabella fighting to get Lucien to get over his past and be with her.
This book was told in dual points of view via dual narration, and was narrated by Joe Arden and Maxine Mitchell. I really like both of these narrators. They both have emotive and pleasant voices. Joe has a masculine, sexy voice and Maxine has this way of portraying anxiety or fear with a sort of shaky sounding voice which sounds so realistic.
