The central romance between Rhys and Dallas was great. I really liked both characters — Rhys the grumpy dragon shifter who starts the book seeking vengeance on the witch who killed his sister, and Dallas the innately *good* witch who Rhys has been asked to protect for plot reasons. I especially loved how Rhys was went from a little wary, to the quiet “mine” motions, to “MINE!!” I mean, that’s the only acceptable dragon shifter behaviour really.
Honorable mention to Willow, Dallas’s pet dragonling, who was the cutest thing ever! She had the personality of a rambunctious puppy and it was ADORABLE.
One thing that didn’t work for me was how much word count was used on the side characters — especially King and Aurora (who will be the main characters of a future book). I might not have minded so much if I’d read this series in order, knowing it would have a more ensemble feel.
