Summary

In Victorian England, gossip is often as precious as gold. But the Highlanders are a more mysterious bunch. And if anyone found out what Stephen MacAlasdair really was, he'd be hunted down, murdered, his clan wiped out. As he's called to London on business, he'll have to be extra vigilant - especially between sunset and the appearance of the first evening star.

Mina just wanted to find out more about the arrogant man who showed up in her employer's office. Some might say it was part of her job. She never thought the stranger would turn into a dragon right in front of her. Or that he'd then offer her an outrageous sum of money to serve as his personal secretary. Working together night and day to track a dangerous enemy, Mina comes to see a man in love is more powerful and determined than any dragon.

Boring and exciting… can’t decide

Ok so this book could have gone either way being a theme that feels a bit cheesy at first glance. That was not the case though. The story is well written and takes you into the places and characters described. There’s excitement and tension and a sweet love story and still it felt “meh…” I can’t put my finger on why though since I didn’t want to leave the story all together but finished it feeling a bit… bored I guess?

The narrator lends a lot of gravitas to the story line sounding a little like a grandpa telling a bedtime story, which makes the raunchier parts a bit awkward to be honest, but still think he did a great job.

Can’t give more advice than just give it a try. Maybe I wasn’t in the right head space? Or maybe it is meh. Who knows… Good luck
