Dragon’s Oath by Sophie Stern



3 Stars

A woman in danger…

A lost baby…

A long journey home…

Peggy is nothing special. As the night janitor at Westbridge High, she just wants to finish cleaning so she can hurry home and work on her art. For Peggy, nothing makes her feel more alive than when she’s standing in front of a canvas. Then one night, everything changes…

A woman in trouble runs up to Peggy and gives her a child. She begs Peggy to take the child to Fablestone where the baby will be safe. From what? Peggy doesn’t know. All she knows is that the two agents who show up on her doorstep the next day aren’t with the FBI, and she’d bet anything they’re scientists who want to get their hands on dragon’s blood.

That’s not going to happen.

Not on Peggy’s watch.

Peggy doesn’t have a choice. She has to get the baby to the Fablestone clan before the full moon ends. She has to reach Fablestone before it’s too late.

The fate of the clan is resting on Peggy, and she swore a dragon's oath to return the child to its rightful home.

She'll do whatever it takes, even if it costs her everything.

I enjoyed the overarching aspect of this book but wanted it to be fleshed out more. It needed more world building and character development. It was an interesting read. I liked Peggy and how much she worked to get the kiddo home to her family. I also liked she didn’t take any crap from Cameron when he found her with his niece Daisy. The biggest issue with it was it wasn’t long enough so it was as well developed as it could have been. Still liked it enough to read the next one.

Boulder Bear by Sophie Stern



3 Stars

We were mates, but then he left. Now I know that I'm better off without him.

Or am I?

It's been six years, eleven months, and four days since Dante left Boulder. I know this not because I've been hoping he'll return, but because I've been counting how many days I've been fine without him. I am, too. I have my clan. I have my company.

And I have my son.

Our son.

Dante never needs to know about Wilder. If he finds out that he's got a son, I just know he's going to come back to town, but I've moved on. We've all moved on.

But all of that is about to change...

Dante comes barreling back to Boulder acting like everything is the same, but I'm different now. I don't need a husband. I don't need a mate. I don't need anything he could possibly have to offer, but my bear is begging to disagree.

And I don't know if my heart can handle it.

I enjoyed this but it is very lacking on world building or character development. I enjoyed the plot and you will be angry with the people in FMC and MMC who screw them both over. It is a quick and easy read.
