Joselyn is on on her way to marry a man who is suspected of butchering women but she will marry him for her family. This was a great start to a new medieval fantasy series. I can’t wait to read or listen to the rest of the series, although if Shane East narrates the whole series, I’m definitely going for the audiobook route. 😂 So yes some of her decisions irked me, but when she smartened up I loved her and Hollen together. I would have been like yes, I’m okay with this. If a gorgeous man, abducted me and prevented me from marrying a man who would have potentially tortured me, and then treated me like a queen. I really loved how strong Joselyn’s character was, but man did she irritate me sometimes. Luckily for her she never gets to her destination because she’s kidnapped by Hollen and his dragon. Did I mention that I hate her family? Because I really do. The main heroine, Joselyn, is on her way to marry a horrible horrible man, who is suspected of butchering women but because of her evil father, she will marry him to save her families reputation. He has an amazing voice and did a fantastic job narrating.īesides the fantastic narrator, the storyline is really good.

Seriously though, if I could have Shane East read every book to me, I would be eternally grateful. So this book had me straight from the beginning. I didn’t hate the book, solid 3 stars, which means 5 points. They kidnap people because it's a tradition, and it's okay because they take care of some monsters. I didn’t see the point in a lot of things, starting with the basic concept.

I didn’t even read the extra scenes at the end because I wasn’t interested. It was terribly long, but the book went nowhere. I thought it would have some smuttier scenes, but there were not any. There were a lot of problems with the plot. Although the name of the tribe also influenced me. I felt like they were Dotrakik in the mountains. The structure of the world was nothing extra, but I didn’t hate it. I don’t think she did anything other than whine in the book. But Joselyn is one of the most annoying protagonists I’ve met lately. Hollen was also solid, but not a dream guy. The supporting characters are ok, although the non-Dokiri characters were disgusting, simply irritating. Let's start with the characters which I think was the worst part of the book. The audiobook includes the short story Sven the Collector and other chapters. I had a great mood for a romantic fantasy novel, and when I saw it on NetGalley, I was delighted and signed up for it.
