Review: Sebastian is just trying to get a job as a bartender at a BDSM club. His writing does not make him enough to pay all his bills. His true passion is writing paranormal shifter novels. Which comes in handy when he learns that he is mated to a shifter.
Gavin is a dragon lord that leads one of the largest packs of dragons around. He has been waiting six hundred years to find his mate. Sebastian turns out to be just what he is looking for. He wants a mate who is an equal outside the bedroom and submissive in it.
I loved Sebastian. He was so sweet and just plain likeable. He talks a mile a minute when he gets nervous, which was cute. He also smart and notices the things around him and deals with learning that shifters are real much faster than most humans would, since he has been writing about them for years. Gavin is a strong leader for his pack. But he is not afraid to be loving and gentle with Sebastian when he needs it.
This was a fast paced, well-written book. The sexy and BDSM were tasteful and pretty dam hot. The origin of the shifter world is very unique and one I have not seen before. The hunter’s are the traditional bad guys killing and hurting shifters because they are “monsters.” I look forward very much to more in this series.
