"Intriguing dragon tale of love and revenge."
If you love dragon stories this is one that you don't want
to miss. Mr. Troop has written a story that you can't put
down until the last page and wishing it was longer. This
is the first dragon story I've read that I've thoroughly
enjoyed and I hope Mr. Troop continues writing them. It's been four long years since his wife Elizabeth was
murdered, Peter is ready for a new mate and he knows who
he wants, Chloe, Elizabeth's sister. While he's been
waiting for Chloe to have her first oestrus he's been
raising his son Henri, teaching him that he cannot shape
change in front of humans, teaching him to fly and finally
to hunt. Peter has to deal with Tindall, who with the help of
others, is trying to buy the island next to his to turn it
into a tourist resort. His and Henri's privacy will be non-
existent if he allows Tindall to go ahead with the deal.
He leaves Arturo to deal with the problem and takes Henri
to Jamaica to be there for Chloe so he can take her to
mate and be his wife. He has to deal with his in-laws who believe it's his fault
that Elizabeth is dead so they decide they have to punish
him for it. Charles, his father-in-law, and Derek, his
brother-in-law, kidnap Henri holding him to make Peter
tell them where his fortune is and about all his stocks
and bonds. Chloe tries to help Peter and is locked in her
room for it. While Peter is fighting for his life and
trying to save his bride, Derek has gone to his business,
taking Henri with him, impersonating Peter to put together
a deal that will leave Peter penniless and Derek's family
with all the money, even though he cannot find the
treasure under the house. Does Peter save Chloe, Henri and his business? Read the
story you'll be surprised at the action; also how it is
solved!
