Despite my having a hard time concentrating to visualize a fae who is also a flower, the story was nice. It had a romeo and juliet tune in it, which is always dreamy. The characters were a bit shallow than they could have been, but their insisting on each other made me read the whole book in a few sittings

Can a fae and a dragon be together? Only if the dragon can get control of his beasty!

The Dragon’s Forbidden Sacrifice
3 Stars

This was a really odd read. I have mixed feelings about it. The writing is OK with nice world-building. Though I kinda felt lost most of this book. I found myself wondering if it's because I have not read the whole series. I'm not quite sure! Either way, The Dragon’s Forbidden Sacrifice just wasn't a good fit for me.

I enjoyed the relationship between Rhyol and Mari. They fell in love despite the opposition from both sides of the families.

There wasn't any delineation between the past and the present. I do get confused about the time jumps. I hate time flashbacks or jumping forward. It's so confusing trying to follow along. There's no rhyme or reason to it.

Thank you, NetGalley, for an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.

This was very interesting, definitely written outside the typical fae world. I’m not sure how I feel about this one, the flowers and how they look like flowers on top of it and then having relations with others just does not process. All in all it was a good read if not a little to far fetched even for a a paranormal/fantasy read.

Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for this arc.

This book is much different than i normally read. Not only in content, but in length. I suppose jumping into a series in the 6th book was a silly decision. However, I don’t think that I needed the others in order to understand the world that the author had created. This was the first time I read a book where the fae are actual flowers which was pretty interesting.

I enjoyed the story, but I will always wish for books to be longer. So much of this story felt rushed and incomplete for me as a reader. I do look forward to reading the other books in the series though!

The Dragon’s Forbidden Sacrifice is another enticing story in a world of mythological beings living beyond the veil as crafted by an author whose work I have enjoyed.
This sixth book features Dragon shifter Rhyol and “don’t call her princess” Fairy Marigold who are the leads in an enchanting story of love and misfortune that is highlighted by frequent dabs of humor, issues of trust and supported by engaging writing within an excellently crafted world.
There will be heart tugging interludes as these two very likable characters battle against the odds to achieve their happily ever after which had this reader totally immersed in their adventure, and eagerly looking forward to their success!

I sort of have mixed feelings about this story of Rhyol and Mari’s story. I do adore love read paranormal /sci-fi romance.

Rhyol’s Dragon went into shifter mode and would not turn back. For years after Mari left her kingdom he was there to protect her in his Dragon form and no matter what she said to him, he would not change back. After waiting what seemed forever, she decided to go back to her kingdom rather than live the life she had come to know without him.

Rhyol’s Dragon would not release him and when she left him he had to take drastic action to win her back.
A love story about overcoming fear, getting to know and understand each other as friends to lovers, accepting that it was okay to be different and together! Overall a beautiful read with a HEA!

This is the first story I have read in this series and evidently I missed some important past events because the first part of this story was a little confusing. I had to restart reading the story which helped some. This is somewhat different from any other shifter stories I have read. There are some unique twists to this story that I enjoyed and some that I felt a little lost. Overall once I got over in the story I really enjoyed it. Rhy Mari

This book was okay, a little bit Romeo and Juliet but with dragons and fae.
My biggest gripe about this book is that although I loved the world and story, all of the hard stuff seemed to happen off page. The main characters would hit a wall and then it would be solved so fast, or time would skip and we only felt the tension for a couple pages when the characters had been experiencing it for a few days.
All in all I would for sure read another book in this series or by this author. I liked the setting and writing style, I just wish there was more struggle for the characters that we actually read.

I loved the relationship between Rhyol and Mari. They fell in love despite the opposition from both families. However, I did get confused with the time jumps. There wasn't any delineation between the past and the present and it took a bit to catch up to that. I also think the story could have had more tie in to the rest of the series earlier on. The author just jumped into Ryhol and Mari's relationship without any world building/tying into the world she had already built. I was lost most of the book and I've read the series. In my opinion, this was just not up to the author's regular quality.

Dragon shifters and fae at odds and trying to stay together in this fun dragon shifter romp. Quick read with a fast moving plot and plenty of action

Oh my gosh, can't heart this story enough. It pulls all the heartstrings and has invested in this love story from the very beginning, the trouble is you do not wish it to end.

She Would Wait Forever

A different take on most Dragon shifter stories I’ve read but I have to say very enjoyable. Mari and Rhyol had become friends years ago and when it turned to love they were split apart. Dragon and Fae were not allowed to be together.

Rhyol’s Dragon went into shifter mode and would not turn back. For years after Mari left her kingdom he was there to protect her in his Dragon form and no matter what she said to him, he would not change back. After waiting what seemed forever, she decided to go back to her kingdom rather than live the life she had come to know without him.

Rhyol’s Dragon would not release him and when she left him he had to take drastic action to win her back.
