From the Inside Flap

• An Excerpt From Chapter 22. Enjoy!

Loryn had recommended a place in town that hosted local musicians on Saturday nights. Ewan assured me he and Boone would be long gone by then, and we could have all the fun we could stand without fear of bumping into them. It was clear an hour and a half into the night what Timbra's intention wasobliteration. I couldn't blame her, really. She'd been nursing a dreadful heartache. And I knew as well as anyone the driving desire to be rid of the oppression of loss and sadness. The band was surprisingly good, and when they played an upbeat song Timbra yanked me up by the arm. She threw her head back and her arms out wildly. "Let's dance!" she said. I indulged her. I had nothing against fun, after all. Timbra's lithe body swayed and rocked to the beat, assisted by some fairly potent margaritas. Without fail, the occasion of two girls dancing together served as some unspoken invitation for horny strangers to jump on back. I shook my head sharply and shooed them away. Timbra, though, was less forceful. "Hey," I warned a lanky guy whose hips seemed to move on hinges, "Were your parents octopi or something? Keep your hands to yourself!" He smirked, mitigating any handsome that might have been found in his face. "She's not complaining," he said and popped Timbra soundly on the ass. "You're the only one here with a problem." He turned from me, dismissing me well before I was through. "Listen, asshole," I yelled to be heard above the music. "She's had too much to realize what you're up to. But I haven't. You and her," I flicked my finger back and forth between them, "not happening. She's in love with someone else." "I'm not looking for love, darlin', just a little lovin'." He was behind Timbra, and banded one arm above her chest, the other at her hips, and pulled her tightly into his body. He stuck his head to her hair and breathed deeply before lowering his mouth to the back of her neck. He stared at me as he pressed his lewd lips to her, daring me to do something about it. I was steaming mad. At him. At his audacity. And furious with Timbra for getting herself into the situation. I had just lifted my hand to snatch her from his grubby tentacles when I heard a growl from the door so low and menacing it made the hair on my arms stand up. The warning was audible even over the music, and every eye in the place shot to the door. When I saw what stood at the bar's entrance I gasped and involuntarily stepped away, though the beast was nowhere near me. A vicious dog the size of a sofa stood nearly to the shoulders of the people at the bar. Even in the low light I could see that its golden hair was ruffled at the neck, a clear indicator of its intent to attack. Those closest to the beast scrambled away, clearing a better line of sight. Some crazy person approached the maddened dog, and I shook my head back and forth, silently willing the person not to go near it. Surprise suffused my spine like I'd suffered an electric shock. The person approaching the beast was Ewan--which meant...the beast was Boone. "Oh, hell," I breathed. "Oh, no." The dog stalked toward us, his rumbled growls growing more ferocious with every pace. When Octoman finally realized he was the one in the dog's sights, he threw his arms away from Timbra so dramatically it was almost comical. Almost. The palpable pull of imminent danger sucked any humor from the space. Boone's wide snarl revealed pointed teeth the size of small daggers. My every instinct told me to run. Instead, I grabbed Timbra by the bicep and threw her behind me. I'd never been around Boone's animal form and he looked violent as hell. I feared Timbra might bear the brunt of his fury. He was intent on Octoman, though, and I breathed a little easier. Mangled words escaped Boone's slathering mouth. "Hands. Off. My. Woman." The dancing idiot had the nerve to smirk again. To taunt Boone. "She wasn't complaining." Boone roared with fury, deafening those of us closest to him. It scared me. I admit it. I began backing away and took Timbra with me. Timbra, who at that point decided to clue in to her surroundings. "Boone Adder," she admonished. "Stop barking, for gods' sake. This is none of your concern." His eyes widened with outrage before he uttered a nearly imperceptible, "You. Next." Ewan had positioned himself between Boone and Octoman. Not his most brilliant move, in my opinion. "Let's go, darlin'," Octoman said before running his arm around Timbra's shoulders. I shook my head in disgust. I knew what came next. The guy was an obstinate fool. He might just deserve an ass whooping, I thought. With a powerful thrust from his back legs, Boone launched himself toward the guy, managing to knock both Ewan and Timbra to the side. Boone had Timbra's suitor pinned for three seconds, snarling wetly in his face before Octoman changed--not into an octopus, as I'd imagined--but into some sort of half-crocodile, half-human combination. He used a thick armored tail to knock Boone off him, then bolted upright on stumpy legs. His face, which had looked so natural in a snarl, elongated to house a fearsome row of jagged teeth. He snapped them with force, and the crowd erupted in a mass exodus from the bar. I looked to Ewan to see what we could do. Timbra still lay on the floor, watching in awe as the two predators circled each other. Searching for a weakness. Readying to attack. Ewan shook his head at me in a direct warning to steer clear. I was on board with that program. Getting between those two seemed a good way to lose a limb.

She's quirky, funny, and bold of speech. She's certainly memorable. Unfortunately she seems to be stuck in her early teens, what with all her wining and bursting into tears every other chapter. Add to that her frequent running and hiding motif...let's say I was more than a little annoyed with her lack of brains and agency. Of course, I have never been a fan of the damsel in distress needing to be rescued by someone, anyone, long as he's an available male.Plot wise, the story didn't advance much. Stella pursues another romance despite the fact she has the emotional maturity of a tween, and probably fancies herself in love (rolls eyes). Too bad her sexapades are always with characters who don't actually feel like people because they seem to just be placeholders. I can only hope future books try to develop these male characters out so I actually feel invested in them.Overall, while I find the world interesting and some of the secondary female characters, I feel like the main character is struggling with tween drama and hysterics rather than the very real adult issues in front of her. It's a hard dichotomy to reconcile.

2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. 4 Team Rowan Gresham all the way because I'm a sucker for a redeemable hero stars! By Samantha Pereira As soon as I finished this novel I literally said, ":sigh: I'm all for a redeemable hero so Ewan just isn't working out for me, I love Rowan Gresham." I can't help it, nobody wants the safe and boring choice, come on! I suppose I'm getting ahead of myself and need to reign myself back in.This is book two in the series and picks off right where the first book ends. Stella learns Gresham's position which sends her into a panic attack. She feels betrayed by the one person she felt she could trust but that doesn't last long when the undeniable attraction tugs at them and he apologizes. What does last is her distrust of Gresham which he proves he earned time and again. Stella gets closer to her friends and eventually turns to Ewan after separating herself from Gresham.Gresham has done what he believed to be fair and just given his position and his feelings towards Stella. He has omitted many pieces of information in hopes of protecting her which, when exposed, only further makes her feel betrayed by him. Gresham is stuck between a rock and a hard place with his ever growing desire and feelings for Stella and his duty to protect his people.Heartbreak, betrayal, loss, and dangerous situations fill this novel. Even while Stella and Gresham are being pulled apart there's an underlying tone of them needing and reaching for one another. There's a cliffhanger as there's another book and Stella may just need Gresham now more than ever with the stakes at the highest they've ever been in her life.

2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. Great new series by a new author! Love it! By Jeraca This was a great book! I loved how different it is, yet very similar to other dragon books I've read in the past. This book got down in the nitty gritty about Stella's past and she had to make a lot of tough decisions, which didn't leave her with very great options by the end of this book.Stella just wants to be loved. Sure, her mom gave her all the love she could when she was younger, but having other family members love is definitely different than a mother's love. Also, her mother was a little zoned out and weird when she was little, so the love Stella did get was a bit...spaced out. So I can definitely see her dilemma when it comes to all of the new relatives she's just found out she has and she wants to get to know all of them.Stella is a bit too trustworthing, but I think she is starting to guard her heart a bit more now that it's been scorned a few times since she found out about her abilities. I do have to say, with the love triangle thing that was from the previous book? I like where things are leading at the end of this book. I'm not giving it away if she is with Rowan Gresham or Ewan or another character. You will have to read it for yourself to figure it out. But I'm very, very pleased :)The only thing I'm angry about is that the next book is not available!! I need the next book!! This is why I hate reading series books when the series isn't complete...Oh well, I'll just have to wait. I will definitely be recommending this series to all of my friends! Love it!
