About this listen
To escape exile, Aidan Paytah has had to prove himself worthy - every second of every damn day. He fought with everything he had to earn his precarious place on the Huracán team of dragon-shifter enforcers. He can’t fail or afford distractions, no matter how temptingly sweet. Total loyalty to the clans and dedication to his team is the only way.
Sera Morrison lost her parents and her husband in short order, leaving her a single mother running her family winery alone. Nothing could ever have prepared her for the discovery that she’s a destined dragon mate. But once she finds out, there’s only one man she wants - the one who walked away.
However, the Alliance Council has its own agenda. They want to use her as a political pawn and force a mating that could ultimately kill her to save the High King. Aidan has no choice but to kidnap her, even if it means their close proximity reinforces their own mating bond - and mating with him could end up being a far worse fate for Sera....

Story
Maddie Thompson’s life just fell down a rabbit hole. Finding out she's a dragon shifter was one thing - she never quite fit into the human world, and this new reality feels...strangely right. However, discovering the next step is to choose a mate, and if she chooses wrong, she'll die, is the other side of crazy - especially when she already left a piece of her heart with someone who didn't want it.

It was supposed to be simple. All of that changed in a single breath. Because it turns out I'm not human. And I just knocked out the power on an entire city block. In a split second, all of my carefully-laid plans go up in smoke. There's no chance for college because I'm being hauled off to Kingwood Academy. They say it's for my own protection and those around me. But I know one thing for sure . . . I'm not welcome here.

When firefighter Rory lays eyes on fire-watcher Edith, he instantly knows she’s the one. His fated mate. Now, to win her heart, he just has to protect her from: 1. A raging wildfire (actually, she’s already got that covered, thanks). 2. The lightning-throwing invisible monster that started it (um, the what?). 3. Killer bunnies (don't even ask). 4. The appalling matchmaking attempts from his crew of misfit shifters (not only is this guy scorching hot, but his dog is adorable too. And...weirdly smart?). 5. His own animal need to claim her. Now.

Three years ago, I tried to do the impossible, defying my leaders and facing off with a dark mage in the hope of saving Tam and his fellow dragons. It ended with me barely alive, and it took me a year to recover. There was a spark between Tam and I, the promise of a mating bond, but that was ripped from us along with the rest of the tragedy.

The deal is simple: spend a month with a mysterious billionaire who is the owner of Louisiana’s La Petite Mort Casino, and he’ll forget my father’s gambling debts. If it means saving our family home and business, I’ll do anything. With his strong, sexy, take charge arrogance, Nicolas Dupont is a mystery to me. But it doesn’t matter how hot he is. This is purely a business arrangement. Nic can have any woman he wants and it makes no sense that he'd be interested in a virgin like me. I’m certainly not about to fall for a guy who thinks he can own me.

Story
The eligible dragon shifter males must hunt a handful of females. It's first catch, first serve. The biggest problem is that the females are human. Despite feedback to the contrary, Coal thinks they are weak and breakable. In his opinion, not capable of surviving the hunt, let alone the mating that will follow. He doesn't believe that a lowly human is capable of birthing him a royal heir, so why has his brother, the king, tasked him with claiming one?

Dreaming their way into forever
The danger. The excitement. The will they, won’t they. The swoons. The dreams. I loved it all. Ayden and Sarah’s fated mates dragon shifter star crossed lovers romance with a side of crazy stalker was romantic suspense gold. The book will give you all the swoony swoons while also pulling at your heartstrings with all the emotions. Ayden is a dragon shifter who has been added to the Huracan enforcers whose job is protecting humans from dragons, putting out dragon fires, and keeping the secret of dragon kind. As a dragon orphan, a group that is frequently killed, he feels he has more to prove than most. Sarah is a human and also a single mother and widow. When dragon fires and potential danger threaten her and her son, Ayden and his team begin protecting her. There is overwhelming attraction and chemistry between them but they are both fighting it for different reasons. The reasons only become more complicated once Sarah shows dragon sign. There is a lot of baggage to unpack and hoops to jump through to get to their HEA and the journey there was delicious suspenseful perfection. The story was well written and included witty dialogue, three dimensional characters who grow, and an engaging storyline and was full of sweet moments, steamy scenes, fighting, dangerous situations, evil actors, loyal friends and family, painful pasts, political machinations, mystery, revelations, plot twists, big feels, and laughs. This is a standalone and you will not be lost if you have not read the other books in the series but there are some overarching storylines that you’ll enjoy more if you read the books in order. I am excited to read the next book in the series.
Brian Pallino and Melissa Moran did a phenomenal job narrating the story and characters into life with enough change of inflection, tone and cadence to voice multiple characters quite convincingly. I really love the added dimension listening brings to a story.
