Review: Each book in the Last Dragons collection features a new romantic couple. To enjoy the overall story arc and crossover characters, I would recommend reading the series in sequential order.

Second chance at love are pretty unique especially when it comes to Will and Jax. Jax was the lucky winner to get not only his dragon side but a wolf side as well. To bad they warred with each other at the wrong times. After he hurt his mate he took off to try to learn how to tame his two sides. Forced to come home because his asshat of a father died, he realizes he wants his mate.

Will left shortly after Jax did and made his way to the city. All was good until he not only lost his job but dumped his cheating boyfriend, who just so happened to be a shifter as well. Will however was human, but grew up around dragon shifters. He has always wanted Jax but you never just drop your pants for your flame.

It is a story that has a dark tone to it but has a bit of humor mixed in. It doesn’t really flow as easy as it should but is still a pretty good read. I can honestly say I would read this book more than once.

There is nothing better than a good old dragon shifter who needs his butt kicked from time to time.
