peristome's review against another edition
dark
tense
medium-paced
2.5
First thing's first, I want to say that I appreciate the forward written by the authors', as it describes exactly what you're going to get. The authors' are right: this is just fiction and they are exploring tropes and kinks within that medium. I am mentioning all of this to say that the dubcon, rape, etc. are not the reason for my rating.
The reason for my rating is that I find the book to be avergae. The Dragon and His Prince is not horrible, but it's not for me. Despite it's short length, it took me days to complete because I kept getting bored. And I even skipped and/or skimmed a good few chapters (you know the ones).And I have to say, the whole "heal SA trauma with more sex" was a really weird choice that I don't agree with, despite the content warnings the authors' offered.
The writing style is not bad, though. If you know you like monster romances (and you've read the trigger warnings and are okay with them), then you should give this a go.
