Started off a little slow and made me feel like I was missing something but things soon get explained and it was easier to slip into the story. Very beautifully written and very descriptive.
Ohhh what a great start to a series.
This book has great Characters and a clever storyline. Very unpredictable and fun to read. Cannot wait to read book 2
I have a new love affair. The Dracones series is amazing. Of course, I have only read one book but, I fully intend to read the rest. Sheri has done an amazing job bringing a new world and new creatures to life. I love how I got to experience so mant different points of view and hear how so many different characters would contribute to the story. At times I wanted to jump into the book and knock Jax upside his head but, alas, I don’t have Mary Poppins powers. I truly enjoyed this book and I’m seriously looking forward to the next. I can’t wait to hear more and Tierney, Jax, Sami, Thaniel, Zander, Amelis, Brimstone, Caden, Genna, Hellfire, Kyrian, Soroyan, Taraven, and many more.
5*s to Sheri-Lynn for an awesome adventure.
Omg! What a fantastic, awesomely unique PNR novel blew me away! One of the best fast-paced, thrilling page-turners with a different take on paranormal shifters that kept me totally engaged when I was able to read for pleasure, and frustrated when I couldn’t coz I wanted to get back to it, to find out what would happen next with all the twists and turns! Excellent characters & a very seasoned writing style for a new indie! I volunteered to read this & this is my honest review. I highly recommend this & can’t wait to see what this talented author crafts 🙂
A haunting read!
Ancient instincts are triggered…
Trust is broken…
Promises are made…
But can Tierney and Jax overcome their legacy and set aside their fears long enough to avoid the Ilyium’s sinister plans?
So I keep notes to write this review so my first entry was: so far, so good. The next entry is nothing because I got so engrossed in this story I forgot to keep updates in my notebook. This is such a grand story full of darkness, heat and dread.
The world is so intriguing and well-built. Cannot wait to explore more of it! The writing was good but the book does need another round of proofreading.
A fantastic unique tale of supernaturals. Very enjoyable and heart-wrenching.
Full of dragons, fallen angels, empaths, illyium, tension, secrets, trust, promises, angst, darkness, heat, magic, supernaturals and love.
Perfect for readers of paranormal romance/dark fantasy.
Audiobook
The narrators were P.E.R.F.E.C.T. Wow. Whoa. As you can see, I am speechless – that is how good this narrator duo are. My word! So absolutely fantastic and enjoyable. Very pleasing and appealing.
A great start to a new series, the storyline is entertaining and the interaction and chemistry between the characters is wonderful. I can’t wait for more from this author. I received this book , as a FREE copy to read and I voluntarily leave this review.
Re-read in 2020 – Audio review!
As always I love me some Jax and Tierney. Oh and my sweet Sami! Gah. I forgot how much I loved this book!
****
Holy Dragon Scales!
I loved every word on every page! Ha. Totally in love with Jax, Teirney and Sami! Though, I love Jax the most. Lol It’s taken me a few days, okay, a week or so to write this review because… I am still in Dragon hangover. Seriously. I can’t stress just how much awesome this story has in it.
It’s a hurricane blowing through your mind… It leaves you windblown, mind blown and in a state of.. holy crap, I need the next book now! I mean, dude.. its just awesome sauce!
Three Dragons, a wolf pack, a scared Kitty and a helluva lot of emotions make this one fantastic story! I am a HUGE Dragon fan and I can say to date, this is one of the BEST stories I have read. Not taking away from the others but that is my honest opinion. The action, the emotions and the level of chaos are well balanced. The characters -though there were times where I wanted to put a boot in a certain blue Dragons hind end – were well rounded.
Scarred hero? I’m all over it! You will not be disappointed with “Dracones Awakening.”
First book by the author and I got the audiobook, it was good, I really enjoyed Tierny and Jax, this magic world got me hooked, filled with lots of action, adventure, and steam. I got a lot of twists and turns that had me hearing the audiobook none stop. The narration by Tor Thom and Charley Ongel was brilliant, I really enjoyed the audio and loved the way they portrayed their characters. Definitely looking out for more. Brilliant dragon story!
I havent listened to a fantasy romance in a while and now I know I need to do it more.!!!
i love the characters and although there are quite a few it was easy to keep up with them all an their backgrounds and plot twists keeping things interesting and active.
the narration was brilliant and I love that it’s by a Male and female they made is easy to listen to and conveyed the emotion of the characters brilliantly
i love how they use their powers and cant wait to see what happens next.
thank you for a brilliant listen!!
I am an avid audiobook reader, listening to hundreds of books a year, so I am critical of narrators since they can make or break when a great book goes to audio. I prefer books with multiple narrators, so there is less chance of character voice confusion, and voices that are ‘easy on the ears’. The narrators in this book did a great job and it was a great listen.
Next is the story. I am not one to give a lot of specific story details since I feel you should read the story for that. This is Book one in a supernatural series with its own twist on vampires and weres. I fell in love with the main characters and the story itself. The characters were interesting and the story kept me listening and not wanting to break away for sleep and work. It is definitely worth the listen and I am looking forward to Book 2 being added to audio.
I received a free review copy of this audiobook and am voluntarily leaving a review.
AMAZING! A fantastic, well written read. An intense storyline that holds your attention as you get caught up in the fierce twists and hot chemistry. Plenty of excitement and emotionally heartfelt. A thrilling must read.

I’m hooked after just the preview! Can’t wait to devour this one!
It strikes me that there doesn’t seem to be a explanation for the stars that are given. So I thought I’d start giving my take on it.

2 there are redeeming qualities.
3 good worth reading, or well written but not my cup of tea.
4 great but there’s something off.

I have both the audio and e-book versions.
A great beginning for a series.

It was very easy to get into, I’m enjoying it a great deal. It keeps you drawn in to the story and doesn’t want you to put it down. Sheri-Lynn made each character unique within their group and their abilities. I also enjoyed how she has created different groups of shifters that other authors’ haven’t come up though. I thoroughly enjoyed it. I can’t wait for the next book in the series.
The Dracone (dragons) with their different magic, the are a mix of Fallen Angels and Dragons. Then you have the mysterious and very powerful Okami Wolves, they are the original wolves cousins, but neither shifter, nor were.They all live in constant hiding for hundreds of years from a dark evil bent on destroying all paranormal.Brothers Jax & Sami and their adoptive sister Tierney have been together forever, only Tierney and Jax have been in love since childhood, but Jax bears scars both mental and physical of abuse at the hands of the man that was supposed care for him and protect him. He does not deem himself worthy of Tierney’s love, his father has told him all his life how worthless and dirty he is. Now they must all search for her father Zander (Fallen Angel) who has disappeared and now they have the help of ones they never knew existed the Okami Wolves.
Intriguing, alluring, captivating, inspiring, and more. I am looking forward to learning more behind the myth of the existence of these people and those around them. The superhuman/hybrids are fascinating all on there own. More development of the world would have made this a 5star rating for me. The romance was delicious and long waiting.
