Very repetitive, predictable and clichéd. Very much a teenage romance with a peppering of dragons. OK for a quick pallet cleanser.

The writing was really quite bad, characters two dimensional and the romance was dragged out to the point where the author had clearly run out of reasons for them to be together so they were just being whiney.

 Absolutely adorable!

The Baby Dragon Cafe was the perfect cozy detox after the emotional trauma of Onyx Storm. 

Think Gilmore Girls but with adorable dragons - warm, charming and so full of heart. 

If you need a comforting read that feels like a hug, but are not quite ready to leave the fantasy genre behind, then this is it!

I read the Net Galley proof version so the published version may have been edited to reflect how myself and others feel about this book.

I thought this was bland, the writing was very simplistic and the speech was wooden. There was a hint of chemistry between our main characters and the baby dragons were cute but overall it felt badly written with next to no plot. I will say that I liked the diversity but this doesn’t have much going for it.

I also hated the way the main character called baby dragons draggos.
