Everyone needs to have a second chance
This book is everything I have come to expect from this author, the feel good vibes of two characters who are always meant to be together, the action of trying to make your move when you have waited so long, a love that is revealed after so many years, and the strength to stand up for what you want instead of what everyone expects. I love this edition to the Alpha Dragon Club, it kept me enchanted from the beginning to the end. I am really looking forward to the next book from this author.
Alpha Dragon’s Second Chance is a quick, well written dragon shifter romance and is part of the Alpha Dragon Club series. Jude and Sierra are childhood best friends. They have secretly loved each other but neither have ever acted on their feelings. When they finally realize they are in love will it be too late? This is an entertaining dragon shifter romance filled with magic, danger, suspense, steam and an unexpected twist.
Eventually, everyone finds their stride and grows up. Jude has been crushing on then falling in love with his best friend, Sierra in what seems like forever. But, he never tells her. Maybe, it’s time? When she returns after a 2 year fellowship, Edward, who has been exchanging emails with Sierra, shows up, expresses his interest and totally sucks up to her parents. Sierra has been in love with Jude also. In spite of being besties, they don’t talk about the ‘important’ stuff. Sierra notices things are ‘off’ with her and Jude. Sierra, knows Jude’s heart! She knows he’s not the ‘bad boy’ his reputation suggests. Sierra’s parents push her to consider Edward as a mate because they never approved of Jude. Sierra wants to be a writer with no interest or encouragement from her parents. Watching Jude squirm is a bit fun/frustrating. Jude’s defiance is juvenile and silly. Watching Sierra squirm is agonizing considering she doesn’t push back at her parents. Will Sierra succumb and chose Edward? Is he even a good guy? Will Sierra get her writing career off the ground? Will Jude ever gain his Dad’s respect? Will Sierra and Jude ever express their true feelings? Fun story. I received an ARC from Booksprout for a review.

A sweet and solid foundation for this dragon couple
Alpha Dragon’s Second Chance: Alpha Dragon Club Series Book 3 by Abigail Raines is another exciting and romantic dragon shifter romance. Once again I was delighted with this dragon shifter world and the magic of it all. Alpha Dragon’s Second Chance for me was more about the already established, meaningful relationship of Jude and Sierra of long time best friends then how their true hidden feelings, loving one another, is finally realized, acknowledged and allowed to flourish. There are some paranormal elements, dragon lore, shifting and shifter characteristics, which adds a richness to this book.
The history of Jude and Sierra’s relationship and connection drew me into their orbit immediately and because of their characters I became very invested in them.
Overall, a very enjoyable paranormal romance read. The HEA for Jude and Sierra was fitting for the depth of their connection and representative of their history. It was sweet and romantic and perfect. Most of all, I am absolutely looking forward to reading more HEAs for this Alpha Dragon Club Series’ alpha dragons.

What if the bad boy is really not such a bad guy? What if you think this friend holds your heart in his hands? What if your exasperating parents have other plans?
This live is steamy hot, and has some trials to face.
Intense shifter love story!
