Stalked by her abusive husband, Briar makes a deal with a demon to live seven years in a fantasy world in exchange for her husband’s death. In the fantasy world, she is auctioned off to Sol, a dragon, who will have the entirety of the seven years to seduce her. Scared but intrigued by Sol’s life and the gentle way that he regards her, Briar quickly begins to feel more for him.
Given the short nature of this novel, it’s understandable that the romance moves quickly. I think that Katee Roberts did a good job of exploring why Briar is quicker to jump into this relationship though I was surprised with some of the directions that this went in considering the history she had with an abusive husband. I did wish for more characterization for Briar. We get more of Sol’s backstory and his personality. Briar seems to be defined by her past abuse and we know very little about her other than that. I wish that Roberts had spent a little more time fleshing her out, even with small glimpses of a bigger picture like we got with Sol. I’ll be interested to read the next book in this series but this is mostly erotica with minimal story so keep that in mind before picking it up.
