I can see why people would like this book, but it just simply wasn't for me.
The attraction was instantaneous with barely any build up other than the characters being described as hot. The love triangle wasn't even a proper love triangle because you knew who would win right off the bat. I got extremely tired of the nickname "Violence," of the constant middle finger mentions or the cursing which at one point in the earlier chapters felt as it was said in every paragraph. I enjoyed that the book presented women in command/higher standing, but the characters all felt very 2000s which is odd for a generation without phones. I raised the rating from 1 to 2 stars because I liked the dragons. I found their types interesting and I also liked the information on young dragons.
