Know your audience.
By the time the readers hit a book number 3 in a series, they have certain expectations. In this case, we want outrageous and funny dialogue, crazy bloodthirsty characters, and plenty of dragon sex. Unfortunately, this book decided it was time to go "deeper", or maybe it just wanted to expand the world and story.
How dare you try to make shifter-smut serious?
Instead of getting my favorite dragon Gwenvael's story we get everyone else's continuation of their stories with a dash of Gwenvael thrown in. What a rip-off!!
Screw you, life!
And, considering that Gwenvael's mate is nicknamed The Beast - we really should have had a full book on them. But, nooooo.... we had a full book on Talaith the Bitch, but the Beast gets the short end of the stick. AND, we had too many scenes with Talaith the Bitch being a bitch in this book too. What the hell? Is she such a bitch that she bitch-slapped the author into writing her a storyline in someone else's book?
and her little loud-mouthed daughter too.
Needless to say, I need to step away from Dragon Smut Land for a bit. I'll get back to it once I feel less ragey. Maybe.

OMG totally agree with this. Not enough Gwenvael. Seriously, WTH happened?! I hate Talaith too. Sigh. Needed more Gwenvael and the Beast.

OMG, about to start the book, and really disappointed that there will be more Talaith the bitch (thank you for that!). Guess I’ll try something else before, give sometime to forget about that info : - ( but great reviews btw! : - )

If yu're missing some fun smut with horned aliens (sorry, they're not blue...) you should try Abducted! :P
