Chasing the dragon
I don’t normally read books like this but I thought I’d give it a shot. I really liked it. The story pulls you in from the beginning and the characters seem like real people. I’ve had some of the same problems that the heroine has. Only thing I didn’t like about this story was being hit over and over again with how Tyler was in such conflict before she found out his schemes. Well, that and basically it ends in a cliffhanger. I hate cliffhangers.
A book you fall in love with
Wow the writing in this book is beautiful. You can feel the love the characters have for each other and the struggle Tyler has between the choice he has to make. Can't wait to read book two!
Confusing as heck
The title indicates “dragon” yet there is no mention of paranormal stuff or dragons. The book was way too long it could’ve been condensed into 400-500 pages. The story sounded good but the book sucked. I was able to skip 30+ pages and not be confused! I hate liars and Tyler is a liar! I’d think Mackenzie would rip Tyler a new one for lying the whole time since she’s a control freak! Just another cliche typical book where the woman just rolls over and accepts the males lies and deceptions. 🙄
