What’s a single, pregnant woman supposed to do when her family wants that baby gone? Go to Preor Choosing Station Tau and hope a dragon shapeshifting alien is her mate, of course.Delaney Cole found her mate among the Preor only to watch him die—through his own eyes thanks to the Knowing. Now, what’s she supposed to do when she discovers that her second mate is the male who’d killed her first? It … killed her first? It doesn’t matter that he’s gorgeous, that his peach scales invite her touch, and his thick muscles make her fingers tingle with the need to caress him. She shouldn’t want such a violent, deadly male, but… she does.
Zadri was born a son of Syh, orphaned and unwanted, and he never imagined actually having a mate. Yet, Delaney is his. Yes, he was the one to rip out her first mate’s throat, but now that he has experienced the Knowing with her, he will not let her go. Her lush curves, inner strength, and unborn young belong to him—wholly and until he takes his final flight.
When others attempt to rip her from his life, he will explain the gravity of their error. Slowly. Painfully. He only hopes he can reach her before they escape.

When one mate falls
There are so many interesting twists and turns and little tidbits hidden within the pages of this book. I enjoyed the growth of the characters and the development of the overreaching plot as these two worked towards their HEA. The author really has put her best foot forward with the addition of this book to the series. I can’t wait to see what happens next.
A beautiful story that will catch your feelings from the start
Amazing. Every time I read one of Celia Kyle’s intricate stories, I think it’s the best one yet. Then I read another one, and she blows me away every time. Her characters are deep, damaged yet loveable or detestable, there’s something for everyone. Delaney needs to catch a break and Zadri needs to accept that he’s lovable too. The action is intense, the emotions are all over the place, but the story itself is strong and sustains your interest from start to finish. I loved it!
Pregnant and scared, Delaney is caught in a fight. When she wakes, confused and mated it takes a while to understand. However, her past threatens her and her mate will do anything to protect her.
What a great addition to the Preor series. I absolutely adored Zadri yes he and emotional mess but he didn’t let his past defined him. I had a love hate relationship with Delaney her reluctance to tell Zadri the truth about her past and her dislike of her folks was really irritating. Still with all the drama I couldn’t help but go through every emotion right along with Zadri and Delaney. Overall a great read. I received this book in exchange for my honest review.
This book flowed well & kept my interest? I liked Zadri tremendously in this book. He has the right amount of sad/troubled past with broken heart over his being abandoned as an infant due to the wing deformity, to make you feel for him & his pain. Delaney, though I can’t really put my finger on why, I just don’t like her as well as some of the other human mates from the previous books in the series. I also guess that I’m a little blood thirsty for revenge, I wasn’t pleased by Zadri sparing Luzan at the end, I get why Zadri did etc, but I just felt Luzan wasn’t worthy of being spared. I also want to know what the Preor on earth did to Delaney’s parents besides the money, I want the deets! I also wanted more deets on Zadri & his brother, Ballakin, & their parents. I think this story left a few more holes that left me puzzled over meanings, or happenings.
What another great action packed story in this series. Too much in this review will spoil it.
This continues on from where the previous book ended. Zadri has just killed Ballakin and Delaney was rushed to medical. There is a twist later on in this story about that too.
Delaney has been raised in isolation and neglect. Delaney wants nothing to do with her parents and managed to escape them when they attempted to abort her baby.
Zadri was thrown from his eyrie as a young child due to a malformed wing. Zadri thinks that if you have parents they are wonderful and the fact Delaney will have nothing to do with hers is unbelievable to him.
When these two finally talk and tell each other their stories it is heart-breaking. Took them a while to get to this point but it cemented their relationship.
You need to read this to understand how much is going on.
It was so nice when Zadri showed mercy to Luzan who had been tricked by Delaney’s parents. It must have seemed like heaven for poor Luzan to believe he would get his own mate. The fact he dishonoured himself is something he will now have to live with. I hope one day he has his own story and HEA.
Loved the karma angle against Delaney’s parents but WHO is Liquid Knot???? Interesting lady.
This is my honest review of this book.
