Davis~It was just another job—at least it was supposed to be—but snaring the feisty blue dragon I’d been contracted to collect and her rider in my trap changed everything. Hunting dragons was my job, and I was damn good at it. I’d never missed a target. Never failed to make a delivery. So why was every step toward turning over my bounty suddenly a struggle? No quarry had ever managed to get under … get under my skin, but something in Zale’s haunting blue eyes called to me like nothing ever had before.
Zale~
When Itsaso and I were kidnapped, we fought like hell but found ourselves at the dragon hunter’s mercy. He locked my dragon away, leaving me to face captivity alone. Now, all I have to rely on is the training that’s been drilled into me every day for as long as I can remember and biding my time, waiting for Davis to make a mistake. Or my brothers to find and rescue us. But something happened the first time I truly looked in Davis’s eyes, dark pools as deep and enchanting as the sea, and I realized I was in so much more danger than I thought. How could a ruthless dragon hunter be my perfect mate?

Zale and his blue dragon, Itsaso have always found it calming to be near the water. When Zale and Saso go to the water for Zale to sort out his thoughts, what happened was totally unexpected.
Davis of the Reid clan has known the Brotherhood is corrupted. The Reid clan received Intel of one of the Ormarr brothers kidnapping a child and committing murder. Davis has been sent to get the guilty Ormarr and bring him back for interrogation.
I really like this one because Zale is such a contradiction. The Zale character is a warrior, but also is “soft” or dare I say….has feminine characteristics. The plot of the story really carries over from book 1, which is finding the root of the corruption with their government, or The Brotherhood. I have no idea who is the bad guy yet! I am really enjoying this series. The contradicting traits in characters, the mystery of who is good or bad, there are DRAGONS! It’s just all goid. RECOMMENDED!!
Zale continues where Azaran leaves off as we find out more about the brotherhood and the order and meet Zales mate Davis. Another great book in a breathtaking series
Dynamic characters, misinformation and subterfuge, creative world-building all combine for a wonderful story. I am loving this story-line as it continues to develop over these four books. Amazing characters blended with magic and myth created an engaging and page turning story. I really liked both characters and liked how the story unfolded and we got to know more about their families and their motives. The descriptions of the dragons is really awesome!
Davis and Zale are awesome! The dragon hunter and the dragon warrior find their HEA and so much more. I laughed and i cried with this story, especially with Davis and Harri! The story has so many layers and i am looking forward to finding out more about the Brotherhood and who the bad guys are and how they will be defeated.
This is the second book of a four book series and it really should be read in order to understand the inter-relationships and some of the plot. I am so looking forward to the next two books! Looking forward to some epic interactions in the future!
I was gifted this book from the LesCourt Author Services and i freely give my honest opinion and review.
Zale is one of the youngest Ormarr brothers. At only , 20 years old, he’s a lethal fighter with a kind heart. When he’s kidnapped and accused of murdered innocent persons, Zale realized something was wrong in the brotherhood, he has to discover the truth without having to kill his captor… his mate.
Davis is a dragon’s rider, but his clan is persecuted and murdered by the brotherhood. Kidnapping Zale Ormarr is his best shot to find out who in the brotherhood control the wraith, but Davis realized soon that Zale is his mate and something was wrong with this mission.
This book was as good as the previous one.
I loved Zale, he seems quiet and reserved. He’s intense. As the smallest member of his family, he seems non threatenning, but Zale is lethal, fierce and dominant. Davis is a huge, hunky man, with a big soft heart. He wants to protect his people, and freed them from the brotherhood, but he also wants a life and future with Zale, his dominant , sassy and kind mate.
I loved them, they are perfect together. I loved how different and complementary they are to each other.
The plot was captivating, we learn more about the brotherhood, the manipulation behind the wraiths by them, and most important, someone want the Ormarr’s brothers dead. It was really interesting and captivating. I was completely hooked in the story and couldn’t put the book down until the end.
Can’t wait to read about Eeli and Malachite too.
Zale by Michelle Frost is the second book in the continuing paranormal series, The Brotherhood of Ormarr. It has action, angst, heat, sweet
.. and dragons!!! Zale and Davis are great characters and so are the other characters. This series it thrilling and I need more now.
I received an advanced reader’s copy of the book and I am voluntarily leaving my honest review and recommendation.
After their parents death, Zale Ormarr along with his brothers: Malachite and Eeli have always been cared for by their older brother, Azaran. Zale has always found his freedom in the ocean. But with the loss of his mother his heart still aches. The brothers belong to the Brotherhood of Ormarr, where they have sworn to help and protect others. They’ve found themselves in danger on missions, when they’ve been attacked by wraiths and their riders from the Order of Amsel.
Davis Reid believes he has seen the death and destruction caused by Zale on a mission. He has come for justice. He is determined to bring Zale before the clans of Reid Island, that have been subject to the wraiths evilness. Davis and the clans have decided that the Brotherhood of Ormarr are corrupt and evil. Davis also has a personal stake in seeking justice, Harri.
When Zale and Davis come face to face, Davis is taken by surprise. He’s met more than his match with Zale. No matter what Zale faces with Davis, he has to keep under control in order to put his plan into action. The fight is on between them. With their effort to out-fight and out-smart each other, will they miss out on finding their “monaha senka”.
This is another first time read for me by Michelle Frost, who created the second installment to “The Brotherhood of Ormarr”. The writing has an easy flow and kept me wanting more of the exciting journey of Zale and Davis. There’s lot’s of intricately described, fast paced, fight scenes and danger. Along with sweet moments and humor there’s still an element of mystery. The emotional side of both Zale and Davis comes through when it comes to family and their dragons. Frost has a talent to separate the human aspect from the magic of the Dragons. I like that Frost didn’t back track to the first book “Azaran” to give detail on Zale and his brothers, which made the focus stay on Zale and Davis’ story. She allowed Davis to give his own POV on the brothers and Toby.
As for the Dragons; Itsaso, Sidri, Bodhi and Kesia they steal the show. From their wyrmling form to full grown they really become a main focus in the series. They each have a different personality, quirks, and how they relate to each brother and their magical talents really come to the forefront.
“Azaran” is the first book in the series and I have to say the cover art on both these books is absolutely stunning and certainly tells the story. This is a wondrous addition to this series. More excitement is to come as “Eeli” is featured next in “The Ormarr Brother” series.
The Brotherhood of Ormarr is a series comprised of four books written by different authors. I’m reviewing this book after I finished reading the entire series. The Brotherhood of Ormarr focuses on four brothers who are dragon riders and live in a world similar to our own contemporary world. Zale is the second book in the series and cannot be read by itself. Read Azaran first.
Zale is the third oldest brother who finds himself kidnapped by his fated mate, Davis Reid. Davis, we find out, is part of the Clans, dragon riders who were kicked out of the Brotherhood. There’s a serious “enemies-to-lovers” trope going on here, but due to their fated mate status, both characters can’t help the magnetic attraction they have towards each other. I loved this tension and buildup, especially since, we the reader, know that they aren’t really enemies, and the true enemies are trying to manipulate the situation.
The love story was cute, and Davis and Zale are probably my favorite couple out of all the brothers. I really adored this portion of the series.
Overall Rating: 4 Stars. The writing was solid and flowed well. I enjoyed the characters, and the plot became more intense, setting us up for the next segment of the story in the next book.
