My Thoughts:
This was a quick easy read with dragons! I loved how the bonded dragon's growth depended on the bond forged with the rider. Ayr had to get to know his dragon for her to grow big enough to fly. Pretty cool. This is a YA book so you aren't getting any graphic spice but it is a slow-burn romance. It could have been more descriptive to draw you into the storyline. But I enjoyed the world and the characters. But be prepared for a cliffhanger ending.
