a stand-alone. \u00a0While there&#8217;s some references made to the couples of the previous books, none of it is necessary to enjoy the story. \u00a0Mild spoilers for the book below.<\/p>\n<p>Erik, one of the Loch Arach family members (and a dragon), has been sent away from the battle between the Scottish and English to find a treasure supposedly hidden by the Templars. \u00a0As it&#8217;s apparently located on an island in the middle of the Atlantic, he&#8217;ll need a ship to get there. \u00a0Luckily, he runs into Toinette (another dragon), who he was fostered with at Loch Arach, and now captain of the ship <em>Hawk<\/em>. \u00a0While they were attracted to each other as teens, nothing more than a kiss happened before Toinette was sent away, and it&#8217;s been quite a long time since they&#8217;ve seen each other.<\/p>\n<p>This was not at all what I was expecting. \u00a0I binge read the first two books in the series before this one, so coming off of Moiread and Madoc&#8217;s road-trip-style romance, I initially thought this would be another fun traveling story. \u00a0Then things took a surprisingly decided turn sideways, and I realized . \u00a0While I wouldn&#8217;t call any of Ms. Cooper&#8217;s books that I&#8217;ve read so far light reading &#8211; they usually have multiple layers, and have several philosophical and religious layers &#8211; this on was heavier than most. \u00a0It quickly goes from &#8220;OK, this is weird&#8221; to &#8220;creepy&#8221; to &#8220;OMG WHY am I reading this at night???&#8221;, while at the same time exploring sacrifice, friendship, and understanding the price of both.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cIt\u2019s <em>all<\/em> pride, as far as I\u2019m concerned. Kings and crowns and banners\u2014it\u2019s all pride, it\u2019s all stupid, and none of it\u2019s worth a drop of my men\u2019s blood.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I admired Toinette. \u00a0Unlike the MacAlasdair dragons, who are Scottish nobles, Toinette grew up poor and English, and she&#8217;s on her own when she suddenly starts manifesting her dragon powers as a teen. \u00a0Somehow, she manages to end up at Loch Arach, where she&#8217;s taken in and learns to control her powers. \u00a0Even there, though, it&#8217;s obvious she&#8217;s not one of them, and when she&#8217;s eighteen, she leaves to forge her own life. \u00a0And she does! \u00a0She marries, is widowed, and then inherits the captaincy of the <em>Hawk.<\/em> \u00a0Her crew respects her, and from everything we see of her, she&#8217;s a good and prosperous captain. \u00a0While Erik owes his loyalty to his MacAlasdair family, Toinette&#8217;s family is her crew, and she knows it.<\/p>\n<p>One of my favorite parts of this book is the interactions between Erik, Toinette, and her crew, especially Marcus, her second in command. \u00a0During a storm, Erik and Toinette are forced to reveal their dragon selves in order to save the ship and its crew, so threaded along with the rest of the plot is the crews&#8217; reactions to, well, their captain turning into a giant fire-breathing monster. \u00a0Each of the crew are distinct and well-characterized, and each have their own reactions to the dragons and being stranded on the island.<\/p>\n<p>And as a note, since I was not expecting this &#8211; this book reads as straight horror at times. \u00a0It&#8217;s more of an existential horror rather than blood and guts-type, though there&#8217;s a bit of that, but this is a book I would most definitely NOT recommend reading before bed! \u00a0While I&#8217;m only an occasional horror reader, I thought the quality of it was well-done, and the explanation behind it was fascinating, as well as keeping with the series&#8217; fourteenth-century take on religion.<\/p>\n<p>Overall, while this was not at all what I was expecting, this was excellent. \u00a0Recommended for anyone looking for an exciting paranormal romance with a large dose of horror!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>While this is the third in the Dawn of the Highland Dragon series, this could be read as a stand-alone. \u00a0While there&#8217;s some references made to the couples of the previous books, none of it is necessary to enjoy the story. \u00a0Mild spoilers for the book below.
