I bought a copy of this eBook about two years ago but never read it as I had not read any of the previous books but when I was given this audio version I decided to give it a go. I am so glad `I did. It is possible to listen to this book and enjoy it without having any previous knowledge of the characters.

The book starts with Libby, a wolf shifter, on her way to a cabin she planned to make ready for her cousin Dillon, the pack’s new Alpha to use as a retreat. Suddenly she picked up a scent, a demon was nearby. Walking cautiously forward she found an injured man who smelled strongly of a demon, when she got closer she was stunned to discover that he was her mate but he wasn’t a wolf, he was a dragon. He desperately needed help and as she couldn’t take him home to the pack she took him to the cabin she had been preparing for her cousin.

Over the next three weeks, he remained unconscious, did dragons go into hibernation to heal? But the smell of the demon was gone. A Dragon had previously been reported to be working with a demon as an assassin and had already attacked dragons living close by. Was her mate this dragon?

Then his eyes opened and he pushed her away, sniffed the air and identified her as a wolf. As she was about to get more bandages, he attempted to follow, but a wave of dizziness stopped him. He didn’t react to her touch as he normally would when confronted by a wolf, he assumed it was because she’d saved him. Upset by his reaction she left the cabin, saying she would return to check on him later if he was still there!

Jaz was confused by his reaction while his dragon tried to make him see sense, but he refused to listen to his beast. When Libby returned he finally admitted to himself that they were mates but he decided the best way to protect her was to deny their bond. When the dragons learned he had lived they would come for him. The demon could come back and attempt to possess him again, he refused to put her in that danger, she was his mate, and he would protect her!

There is a lot more to this story but I don’t want to say more because of spoilers, what I will say is the story is exciting and well written. The narration is by Connor Brown is excellent, he brought all the characters to life and really added to my enjoyment of this story.

I was given this audiobook as a gift and am voluntarily writing my review.
