He has to choose—love or honor—because he can’t have both.Elle may be a Davenport, but she’s finding she enjoys life as a mostly-gray sheep of the Davenport family. She kicked off the Daven Bio uniform and now works for their corporate enemy—Cole Pharma, now headquartered in Preor Tower. She’s got massive, muscular, winged aliens surrounding her from sun up to sun down. But there’s only one Preor … there’s only one Preor warrior who throws her world into a tailspin—Ivoth sen Pezet’li. Strong. Sexy. Sinfully seductive. Hers? No. They don’t share the Knowing, but that doesn’t stop her from wanting him. Bad.
Ivoth made a vow to his sire—the sen Pezet line would not end with him. And yet, when he speaks with Elle, scents her skin, and feels her curves against his hard body, he does not know if he can let her go. He craves her more than any other—perhaps even more than he desires to fulfill his vow—and he knows he must make a choice. Keep Elle and never have dragonlets or leave her and lose his heart forever.
Ivoth has to make a choice, but first, he has to keep Elle alive. Someone wants her dead and Ivoth is determined to kill them first. He only prays to Syh he is successful.

Ivoth is book seven in the Dragons of Preor series by Clea Kyle as Erin Tate.
I was immediately immersed in Ivoth’s story from the beginning to the bitter end.
The author made me feel for both Elle and Ivoth. She showcased their pain and their struggles. She also had me tearing up at times and their where moments that had me stuck on the edge of my seat.
What I really enjoyed was that the Knowing didn’t come right off the bat. It’s clear they have feelings for each other and can feel things from one and other, but it didn’t came into play until around the last 15% of the story. You may wonder why? Well you will have to read to find out! The delay in the Knowing, to me, added to the story.
I also adored the twin dragonlets from a previous couple. They where fun to read and they added a little cuteness to the story. I also had a blast with Charlie, the quasti, a little creature that is attached to Ella.
Ivoth was an emotional up and down rollercoaster. With heartfelt and heartbreaking moments. The Preor are an interesting race and I do love me some sexy dragon men.
Rated: 4 Stars
The ultimate survivor
Yep this is one of those books sure to make me need a tissue box handy. This poor girl has been through so much and the author had to put her through even more before she was able to experience the knowing and claim her Preor mate. The author could not have done a better job of creating the emotions and experiences that just leapt off the page. Every detail was so vivid and clear that I felt like I was experiencing it for myself. I am so excited to see who succumbs to the knowing next.
With a father like hers, she might as well have died. They are drawn to one another but the mate bond doesn’t trigger and it takes several attempts on Elle’s life before the reason is figured out. What happens next will set the stage for a new development on Earth.
What a great addition to the Preor series. I really like Ivoth he was definitely the epitome of a alpha male and poor Elle my heart literally broke for her. Charlie was really hilarious and his story was just as sad but I’m glad that he had Elle. This enjoyable and entertaining read is going to take you on a journey were to broken people come together even with everything against them to prove that true love can conquer all. I’m looking forward to seeing what else is in store for this series. I voluntarily read and review this ARC I haven’t been compensated in any way.
Excellent book! I think this is a tie to my favorite of this series- Jarek’s book. This story had all the mystery, drama, action, humor & excitement to keep me on the edge of my seat & trying to guess what will happen next. I couldn’t put it down. Unexpected twists to the plot kept me riveted to the end. This was not predictable story other than the fabulous HEA. I liked both Ivoth the hero & Elle the heroine. I kept hoping all thru the book, that without the knowing, they would still find love at the end. I also loved the quasti, Charlie, he was a neat addition. Hilarious that everyone was afraid of him. I would have appreciated some translations for the few places I had to re-read (multiple times), Charlie’s thoughts because it was hard to make sense of some of his words. I can’t wait to see who the next book is about, I’m really hoping for the scarred warrior, Argan, to be the next one to find his shaa kouva. He really intrigues me, with his intuitive thoughts, gentle manner & kind words around all the women, & of course his scarred face that makes him think he doesn’t deserve or will never find his “one”.
We get a different reaction to the knowing in this book.
I have enjoyed this series since book 1 but I think this one has a special place for me. The fact that the knowing did not manifest itself due to illness was an interesting slant. It just gave us a different reading viewpoint which I loved.
Can’t say too much more in this review or it will spoil the reading fun.
Loved the story and the characters as usual. It is always fun to visit the Preors and Ujals.
This is my honest review of this book.
