This is the 4th and final book in the Prince of the Other Worlds series. This is the culmination of all the previous books which need to be read and in order to enjoy this. There's also a prequel, Dragon’s Don’t Date, that is fun but not necessary to the plots of the series. This review will contain spoilers to previous books.

On my list of "most frustrating" is when a single couple's arc is broken into several books. So many times it feels like authors have dismantled a single story and then bloated it to get separate products. Not the case here. At all.

I loved every single books in this series, plus the series as a whole. There's action, mystery, suspense, romance, amazing sex, and phenomenal world building. Not only were Damian & Andi wonderful characters and perfect for each other - but the secondary characters were just as fun and compelling. The relationship aspect is actually fairly low angst and any separation is from both wanting to keep the other safe. Danny, Andi's twin, has information that changes everything that Andi has believed her whole life.

This was a wonderful and immersive ride that I can't wait to experience again. An epic final battle and and an HEA for Damian & Andi.

Narration:
Victoria Mei's narration for the entire series has been perfection. Completely bingeworthy. She is amazingly talented at giving all the characters consistent and unique voices as well as evoking all the emotions in Lockharte & Alexander's writing.

While I own the entire series in ebook, I did receive a copy of the audiobooks from Home Cooked Books and am leaving an honest review.

Buckle up, the ending of Andi and Damian’s story is a wild ride! This conclusion gave me exactly what I didn’t know I wanted. While there were certainly obstacles to obtaining the coveted HEA, it was so well done from start to finish that I loved the minimal angsty times too! Everything from main characters to secondary came together so beautifully, that I am fully satisfied with this wonderful story.

The narration by Victoria Mei starts strong from the beginning and through the end. She was able to narrate in such a way that I was fully dragged in. Differentiating is a common complaint of single narration but I have zero complaints here. Victoria is flawless!

Dragon Mated by Kara Lockharte and Cassie Alexander is a slow burn paranormal romance. 

This is the forth book in the Prince of the Other Worlds series and the final book for Andi and Damian's love story. 

I absolutely love this series! Kara and Cassie did an amazing job pulling you into the story. I loved the chemistry between Andi and Damian. I really enjoyed that their relationship had a lot of ups and downs but in the end they got their happily ever after. 

I can't wait for the next book in the series to announced so we can get Austin and Ryana's story. 

I would highly recommend this series to anyone that loves Paranormal Romances.

Same as for the other three books, I liked the story and the characters are interesting, but the deleted scenes are annoying and I therefore pulled one star from the rating.

Great end!
I was sucked into this story from the beginning to the end. It was a journey and wild ride at times.
Being as Andi is stuck in the middle of it we do see her struggle for what she believes. Does she side with her family or with her man.

I think there is something to be said about the way she balances this.
I hated the heart break but it felt necessary too like they needed to fight for what they wanted.
I loved that Damian’s family needs to make sure she is good enough.
This whole series is a plot twist and you can’t help but hold on for the ride because you really never know where it is going to lead us.

I think that is a testament to the writing because it really was a journey and it was revealed in just the right way.

Again I have to talk about the narration because Victoria does such an amazing job.
