Cora is on the run from some loan sharks and runs to the only person she can think of -- her dead brother's best friend Stig. Unknown to Cora, Stig is a dragon. A dragon who's about to enter his breeding cycle. But Cora doesn't have any other place to go, and Stig can't kick her out.
For a novella, I found the characters to be surprisingly complete. The world of dragons was well explained, not leaving the reader with tons of unanswered questions. The author has done a wonderful job of giving us enough information without becoming too blah, blah, blah about it.
My biggest complaint is that there wasn't enough of this book. I wanted to know more about Stig and Cora and their life together. Another chapter, an epilogue, just give me more! Lolita Lopez has created a world that I look forward to visiting again and again.
Do you like shifters? With feathers or fur or scales?
No feathers or scales! Shudder!

I love shifters! Really any kind works for me, if the writing is good. Shelly Laurenston and Nalini Singh are favorites of mine.
ReplyDeleteI read this book, too, and really enjoyed it. Dragons are some of my favorite shifters! Katie McAllister does good dragon shifters, but I don't like the same couple series pacing she uses. G.A. Aiken (another name for Shelly Laurenston) writes hysterically funny and violent dragon shifters that I love!

I can definitely hand furry shifters and dragon shifters. For some reason, I draw the line at the mermaid/mermen shifters.
