When he returns to his family home after losing his job and breaking up with his cheating ex, the last person he expects to see is Blake. But the angry boy River knew is gone, replaced by a deadly and sexy male.

Seeing his brothers happy with their mates while he remained alone, Blake’s sapphire dragon is slowly growing unstable. He thinks River is an illusion until he makes contact. Sparks instantly fly. It becomes clear to Blake that River is his missing mate, but Blake is terrified of losing control of the lethal beast that shares his skin. Hurting River is unacceptable, but when a blast from the past threatens to harm River, Blake refuses to stand on the sidelines. Can River tame the beast within and win the heart of his sapphire dragon?

Reviewer: Lisa

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

River and Blake had become friends when they had been children and now they have reconnected. Blakes dragon is having a difficult time and River’s ex seems to just want to cause trouble.

No surprises in this story and very predictable outcomes. It was pretty much like the previous books so it was a bit on the boring side. There had been a chance at making it a hot read but it failed to deliver. What danger there was, well it was dealt with in just a few seconds so there was no fun there either. I am afraid that this book was just to dull to really enjoy fully. I hate to admit that I just don’t see myself reading any more books by this author.
