Book 5: His Highness the Duke
Dragon-shifter Lord Bron is not looking forward to his seventh failed attempt at a marriage ceremony, but when he sees the lovely Aeron he knows instantly his years of waiting have finally paid off.

Book 6: The Stubborn Lord
Kendall Haven’s life turns upside down when she’s kidnapped off her fueling dock home by thugs claiming to have the right. Her father, the gambler, used her to cover his losses at the Larceny Casino Ship. Drugged and treated like cargo, she’s sold to Galaxy Brides.
Dragon-shifter Alek has not been lucky in finding his life mate. Resigned to a lonely life, he attends the bridal ceremony out of familial duty. Then the impossible happens–Kendall. Nothing goes according to tradition, but he can’t let that dissuade him. She is his only chance at happiness, and he’s not going to let her get away.
Book 7: The Reluctant Lord
Lady Clara of the Redding, a living statue of perfection, has been raised a true Redde noblewoman. She has been taught to never show emotion, to never raise her voice, to touch as little as possible, and to never act wildly or rashly. After Clara denies all suitable males on her home world, her parents are left with one choice—send her to a primitive planet where several noblemen await marriage. The men hardly appear picky about their choices, a perfect arrangement for a reluctant bride.
Lord Vladan, Ealdorman Honorary of the Draig is not like his noble brothers. Adopted into their family after a mining accident killed his parents, he is every bit as titled as his new brothers, and every bit as welcome into the fold. Yet he can’t help but feel the pull of his commoner past. He loves his family, and will always do as duty demands, but a part of him still yearns to shift into dragon form and run free in the wild. This is how he knows his bride will be the most wild of creatures, for he wants passion, not perfection. Surely the gods are mistaken when they bind him to the most refined, reserved, frustratingly perfect creature in the universe.
Book 8: The Impatient Lord
Riona Grey lives life on her own terms, traveling wherever the next spaceship is flying and doing what she must in order to get by. When her luck turns sour, she finds herself on a bridal ship. A planet full of dragon-shifters seeking mates wasn’t exactly what she had in mind. Just when she thinks things couldn’t possibly get worse, she wakes up months later in an isolation chamber with a sexy, hovering dragon-shifter by her side telling her they’re meant to be together…forever.

My collective reviews:
Book 5: His Highness the Duke = This is Bron & Aeron’s story and it is a doozy! I do have to say that I truly respect Aeron for desperately trying to get to Qurilixen to do what she has to. I also respect her honesty throughout the book as well even though sometimes it was like pulling teeth. My fingers are crossed that she is wrong about one aspect of her life that I refuse to give a spoiler of.
Bron is so endearing he tugs at the heart strings. I was very shocked at what he was doing during the breeding ceremony procession & when he flat out broke a main tradition, my heart almost stopped. I was so worried about what that would mean for him. Oh and he’s a sneaky one.
This book has it all. Apprehension, fear, loyalty, more fear, sweetness, hotness & love.
It also has something Michelle M Pillow hasn’t done in this series yet. She left this book with not 1 but 2, TWO, cliffhangers!! Genius!
Book 6: The Stubborn Lord = This is going to be a short review because if I get going, I won’t stop & I’ll end up spoiling the whole book. This is by far my most favorite one yet!
This story is about Lord Alek and Kendall. My heart broke because of Alek’s loneliness until finding Kendall & I was truly appalled by what Kendall’s dad did until……..they found each other in an unconventional way. The series world is opened up in this book which makes it an even better read.
Their relationship made my heart happy from beginning to end and I can’t wait to read the next book!
Book 7: The Reluctant Lord = This is Vladan & Clara’s story and it is riveting from the onset.
This is completely an opposites attract book & it is a glorious one. It is funny, adventurous, sexy & heartwarming all rolled up in one great book.
This does seem to be more Clara’s story but I believe that is because she was always in isolation. She even finds out she has a particular special gift that I’d like to have.
This book is different from the others in the series but every bit as fantastic.
Book 8: The Impatient Lord = It is the story when we finally find out what happened/happens to Aeron’s sister!!! That being said, it’s Mirek & Riona’s story.
I’m not going to spoil much with this review. I will say that it also sums up pretty much everyone else’s stories as well and is a lovely ending. It also had a twist I never saw coming! This book goes from sad and heartbreaking to finding true love, true family and friends plus everything in between.
I can’t wait to read book 9 Her Dragon’s Queen!! It’s a prequel about Queen Mede (who cracks me up) & King Llyr. Then there is The Savage King which starts the Var portion!!
Michelle M Pillow’s books don’t disappoint so take a leap of faith and buy with one click.
This box set of sci-fi/paranormal romance is fabulous fun! Entertaining, steamy adventure..
