First, if like your romances to be sensuous, fast-paced, and full of the MAGIC of LOVE, then you need to read Ava Ward’s series, Royal Dragon Shifters of Morocco. While each of the five novels is a standalone in itself, a reader always gains a better understanding of the subplots and characterizations if the series of novels are read in order. However, if you have not read any of the previous novels, then please consider reading STORM DRAGON’S DESIRE first. If you like STORM DRAGON’S DESIRE, then consider going back to read the novels which precede it. In this fourth episodic novel, Layla must face her new job as a Courtesan for the Red Letter Hotel Paris, continue to improve and control her magic, and then help to gather information on the Crimson Circle, a group of dragons and others in the Twilight Realm who are trying to disrupt and/or take over the Red Letter Hotel and ruin Adrian her mate. Yet doing her job has Layla, who was raised as a human, tied up in knots. As a Royal Dragon Bind, Layla has already bound three strong Royal dragons – her three lovers – but can’t see giving herself to strangers in the hope that their “pillow-talk” will give her the information they need to stop the destruction. Then her human friends are taken, and Layla must be the Bind to unite her lovers to stop the Crimson Circle and rescue her friends. The question is, will they be strong enough? I voluntarily read an early copy of STORM DRAGON’S DESIRE and this is my VOLUNTARY and HONEST 5+STAR review. STORM DRAGON’S DESIRE is a creative and original paranormal tale and a phenomenal MUST-READ! Purchase your copy today! Happy pages!
I thought this was a great book. The characters are well written and original. I have read and enjoyed every book in this series and I look forward to the next book in the series.
More adventures, thrills and steamy romance like you’re expecting. Not to disappoint, there is more to add in this book with a lot more discoveries. Layla is anxious because her friends from Seattle are coming to visit-what will they think? Disaster strikes with many injuries. Who will survive? And how will the survivors continue with their lives? Another tantalizing story! Eagerly waiting the next page-turner!
I received this book as an ARC. I once again love this book. I was really sad at the death of the Storm Queen and with how things ended with Luke. But really enjoyed Rhennic’s character. Since I’ve read the series all the way through, I wish that he had a book that was more about him. Like the rest of Layla’s men have. But I feel that way about Fury as well.
WOW! Just wow!!! We learn SO MUCH in this installment of the series!! We learn more about the Twilight Realm, Hunter, Layla’s Bind Magic, Dusk, Luke, Blood Dragons, and Storm Dragons! This book is paced a bit faster than the previous ones in the series and has more action!! I’m honestly sad I’m finished reading it already because now I have to wait even longer for the next book! Ava Ward has continued her masterpiece series in a beautiful fashion and I’m beyond excited to see what she has in store for us next! Truly an incredible story!
Oh where to start……Well I loved this whole series, I could not put it down.
The whole concept of the Red Letter Hotels is fantastic and unique. A hotel that caters to any needs of the elite supernatural community and that the courtesans are one of the higher ranking employees was a nice touch.
I think the world development of the series as a whole was particularly amazing. In the series it takes you to many places and each one is well developed that you can see it in your minds eye.
I did want to smack Adrian when I found out he tricked her and originally had not the greatest intentions. I absolutely loved that the author did not just have Layla forgive him just because of this mystical bond that he had to work for her and actually open up to win her love. Yes the bond was there pushing and pulling them together but it was not the sole thing to their relationship.
I did enjoy that each book focused on 1 of Layla’s men more so than the others so there was great details and background into each. And it was a great twist that her bff that she almost killed turned out to be a dragon…But that he did not end up as one of her final mates. I thought that was awesome. It was a twist I did not see coming.
All in all amazing series and would recommend over and over.
This story was absolutely fascinating and exciting. I can not get enough of Layla and all the great characters in this series. It just keeps getting better and better. This is a MUST READ!!!
This is a great story with great characters. This is a great next addition to this series. I really enjoy reading this book.
Layla Price is our intelligent and strong heroine who has numerous sexy billionaire dragon shifter lovers. She lives a life of opulence and debauchery at the Red Letter Hotel in Paris set in the fantasy twilight realm but one which is also full of enemies. Layla accepts to be trained as a courtesan hoping to discover who her mate’s enemies are, and she is to have her debut night where she will be auctioned off to the highest bidder. At the time when her human friends from Seattle are visiting to spend Christmas at the hotel, including her ex Luke who she was sure would not be accepting of her current lifestyle. Layla is playing with fire in a game which is more than she bargained for. This must be the most thrilling book in the series, it is darker than the previous books but so exciting. Layla is feeling a darkness inside her which she associates with the Hunter and because she is the bind, her lovers feel the darkness too and they risk being taken in by the void. However this book is not just about darkness it has the usual beautiful world building of the different places Layla visits, more interesting characters have entered the story, the usual hot sex scenarios, plus love, loyalty and courage to face those of the Crimson Circle who are threatening all of their lives and a few surprises thrown in too. I also loved that the story is set around Christmas celebrations just as we are all getting ready for out own ways of celebrating, it is such a heart warming book to read during the count down to Christmas and I cannot wait to read the next exciting book in this hot thrilling reverse harem series.
Another wonderful book full of emotion and twists. The characters are wonderfully done and the storyline pulls you in and keeps you invested in what is happening until the very end of the book.
The fourth adventure in dragon bind series…if the first three was head whirling tales of action, magic and romance, this one tops the first three. There are some surprises every corner which will keep readers guessing. Can’t wait for next one.
I received a copy of this book for free in exchange for an honest review.
Wow this story is all over the place in a good way. Layla has her hands full with her friends arriving and Dragons all around. I am surprised at where Ms. Ward has taken the story this time. Adrian is in the picture in a big way and Luke plays a big part this time. I really have mixed feelings about him and his hot headedness. But I like how things turned out for Luke, some may not. As things look like they are going to be fun for everyone it heads south fast. Don’t worry they do get a bit of fun in. Oh my Hunter is here, the White Chalice (who?), the Crimson Circle is in the mix and more Dragons then you can shake a stick at. I said that already and there is so much tension, so much fun, intrigue, action packed, romp and stomp and I devoured this book in one night!! If you have been reading the series you will love the 4th book. If you haven’t started the series, what are you waiting for these books are steamy, fun, on the edge of your seat great entertainment.
