Book 5.5, Exiled to the Prison Planet (A Prison Planet Slice of Life Novella). Endless possibilities captivate and enthrall!
SPOILER ALERT: DRAEKON DESTINY (BOOK 5 IN THIS SERIES) ABSOLUTELY MUST BE READ BEFORE THIS NOVELLA. WHILE THE BOOKS IN THIS SERIES MAY BE READ AS STANDALONES, IT IS RECOMMENDED THEY BE READ IN ORDER. HOWEVER, IF YOU HAVEN’T AT LEAST READ DRAEKON DESTINY, THIS REVIEW WILL CONTAIN SPOILERS.
A human pregnant with a Draekon child. Exactly how does that work? That’s the problem. No one knows. Harper’s a maelstrom of emotions, both ecstatic and terrified over her child. Vulrux may be the medical expert, but he’s never dealt with any birth, much less a human/Draekon one. Given that Harper now has three default states, ravenous, horny, and hormonal blubbering, Vulrux and Dennox are alternately overjoyed and panic-stricken. And as much as this child is a miracle, no one knows how long Harper will be pregnant, what her daughter will be, or what this child means for both human and Draekon alike. The old ongoing tensions still weigh on everyone. Raiht’vi’s still missing. Then there’s Gunnix. If ever there was an unknown factor, he’s it. Add in hiding the remaining unassembled cloakship, the Zoraken scouring the planet for not just Raiht’vi, but the Draekons’ underground home, the possibility those in the first cloakship may just have survived their escape attempt, and the very real fact Lennox may be lying in wait for anyone audacious enough to try escape, and a bubbling caldron of uncertainty lies waiting to go off like a powder keg. So many questions. So few answers. As Harper gives birth, everything else temporarily fades into the background. This precious child brings unprecedented hope. But for how long? There’s so much no one on any side of this equation knows. Can Harper’s child hold the answers? Is there truly a new beginning for these exiles? Or will this be the beginning of the end for the Draekons, their mates, their hopes, dreams, and new lives?
This story is absolutely beautiful! It’s a very quick read and an absolute delight! While Harper, Vulrux, Dennox, and their little girl are front and center in this story, the other mated couples, particularly Viola, Arax, and Nyx, and Felicity, Luddox, and Xanthox, add mystery and drama too. When you throw in the unending machinations of Lennox, the Zoraken, Raiht’vi, Gunnix, and the hints of what’s to come, along with the rest of the Draekon and human exiles, you have a signature Lee Savino and Lili Zander book. It’s filled with intrigue, mystery, uncertainty of every kind, and especially the joy of family and unconditional love. Oh, and let’s not forget the hot, steamy, sexiness that fills every one of these books (which is very unforgettable)! Ms. Savino and Ms. Zander have demonstrated over and over just how wonderful their paranormal/sci-fi writing is, and this novella is no different. I absolutely loved this story. Congratulations, Ms. Savino and Ms. Zander on another absolutely beautiful, intriguing, and heartwarming story. Daughter of Draekons deserves nothing less than five stars!
A final note. This is an ADULT book. It contains explicit language and sexual scenes. If you don’t enjoy this genre, this may not be the book for you. There are book synopses and reviews available on Goodreads and Amazon. Use these resources. DON’T LEAVE A NEGATIVE REVIEW WHEN YOU KNOW YOU WON’T ENJOY THE BOOK. It’s not fair to the authors. They work hard to provide a quality work product. If you know you’ll object to a book’s subject matter before you buy it, you’re doing yourself and the authors an extreme disservice.
Thanks for reading my review and happy reading!
A wonderful little treat for fans of this series. A sweet and emotional story of pregnancy, birth, hopes, fears, friendship, and love. All these emotions and more are experienced as Harper prepares to give birth with her mates Vulrux and Dennox by her side. A entertaining and enjoyable read.
Good way to update the happenings within this series. Have the reader a bit more onsite to all of the Draekon and their mates.
Looking forward to reading the next book in series
Lee Savino has let us go through the final stages of pregnancy when things are uncomfortable and everything makes you manic, whether it’s laughing or crying, all the fears and what ifs and insecurities. What a joyous occasion when a birth is due.
This was a great addition of renewed hop in the middle of all the turmoil and chaos our Draekons are being faced with. It left me feeling god, even knowing the bad guys are still working the plot.
