Becoming Dragon by Eve Langlais

My rating: 3 of 5 stars

A new series spun off the end of Bitten Point…

Brandon’s story…

Dragon Point isn’t a place, but rather a society, a secret one. And humans aren’t invited.

I’m a monster. That’s what Brandon thinks when he flees the medical institute that changed him. Living a normal life isn’t in the cards for him because, while he can hide his scaly skin, his wings are hard to miss. So he runs and lives in the shadows where monsters belong. What he didn’t expect to find were others just like him, and they call themselves dragons. Or so Aimi with the violet eyes tells him when she pins him to the ground.

Seriously, though, dragons?

He doesn’t want to believe, but the evidence is mounting. Not helping his resolve is the fact that the woman with the silver hair doesn’t fear the monster and wants to claim him.
However, before he can think of his own happiness, he has to rescue his little sister. Uncle Theo kidnapped her, and Brandon will do anything to get her back, even if he must embrace the monster within to become the dragon.

The Hero: Brandon – his wealthy uncle Theo came to town and asked if Brandon wanted to work for the uncle’s company Bit-Tech. Lured by the promise of wealth, he took the offer and now he has been changed into something not human by the scientists who spliced his DNA. Well, he wasn’t exactly born human. He was born a gator shifter, but now is something different, a monster. He runs from the Lab, fearing what his uncle Theo will do to his sister Sue Ellen, whom he has hidden somewhere.

The heroine: Aimi – she and her sister are watching CNN when a news story comes on about the fact that shapeshifters are real. Though Aimi and her family already knew that, since they weren’t human either. Aimi is an elite silver dragon. She still lived with her family since in her world, only married girls moved out to start their families. Aimi and her sister were only one year from being considered spinsters which means they will have to live with their mother forever. Apparently only certain males can mate with silver dragons, so they needed to find mates soon.

The Story: with the fact that humans now know about non-humans, there is a new danger in the shifter world, especially for Brandon since his wings showed all the time. At one point on his search for his sister, Brandon meets Aimi and she tells him he is a dragon, but he doesn’t believe that dragons exist, and he identified as a gator shifter before the DNA experiments.

This audiobook was told in dual points of view via solo narration. It was narrated by Chandra Skye. She has a nice voice and speaks in a good tempo. She is able to show emotions through her voice though she doesn’t have the best male voice and she whispered at times which confused me, it seemed like when their beasts were talking, but it wasn’t all that clear. I wish this was done in dual narration instead of solo.

The story was got better as it went along, though I didn’t like Aimi much, she was a bit crazy and from a wealthy family, she acted like a bit of a prissy girl who is used to the finer things, and she knows she is pretty and thinks she is awesome. The whisper talking narration really bothered me as well. However, I liked the way that Aimi and her family kept insisting Brandon was a dragon and he didn’t believe it. He turned out to be all that and a bag of chips.
