Dragos Goes to Washington by Thea Harrison

4.0

 

4 stars - It was really good

After the destructive events of the last year, the Elder Race leaders are headed to Washington DC to foster peace with humankind. Dragos is not known for his diplomacy skills, but with Pia at his side he tries, even with the mating instinct interfering. But when the human spouse of a prominent politician winds up dead, the Dragos has to race against time to prove it wasn’t an Elder Race murder. 

This may be a short novella but a lot happened in it. To start with, this novella really shows how far Pia and Dragos have come in their relationship, especially after Dragos’ injury. They really are a team now and are not just focused on the Wyr, but also their family and what they want. I really like that we continue to see these two grow as a couple and that they are actually planning their families future, not just taking things as they come along. 

 The Elder Race leaders meeting in Washington DC to discuss all the changes that have recently happened is a big deal. I like that we are finally seeing the leaders together for once and that there is some reuniting with old friends. Dragos in politician mode was amusing and surprising in that he kept calmly explaining the situation and didn’t just yell and make demands. Dragos has really changed a lot since meeting Pia but I still like when we see him revert to the old dragon that he is. 

Overall, this was another enjoyable novella and I am really interested in seeing what happens next for Dragos and Pia now that their situation is changing again.
