The Dragon Nimbus Novels
Ratings2
Average rating2.5
I kept making fun of this book to a coworker. I read through the first one almost glad to see a passage from the stuffy politics of the castle. I liked the thought of magic coming from dragons and the world we were introduced to was nice...until we meet our female lead. Love happened too fast, they somehow had threesome sex starting while two of them were sad their friend was nearly gone from a drug OD, and it took a woman who was afraid but proud to be on her own and flipped her into loving two men she barely knows to letting that all collapse over the responsibilities one of the men had to his name. Then, from what I read of the second book, we seem to pick up where we left off except there is a big time skip and she's pregnant and knows who the father is and the evil guy wants to control her feelings through her fetus. And the cat is now the spurred man's love interest as if he wasn't devastated from the rejection from the love of his life a few months (maybe?) ago.
I bought this back in 2012 and it had been sitting on my shelf. If I had read it when I bought it, it may have gone over better because I was in a different state of mind. I was slightly disappointed to find I had not purchased a trilogy when I looked up the book here but I kept reading. Tried to get over horny-man and over-emotional-woman. Perhaps I am too spoiled with strong female leads as of late. Or at least plots that I can't see a mile away. (The threesome was the only thing to come out of left field for me.)
It maybe your cup of tea but it is not mine. I will skim and put it in a donation library.
Edit: Skimming through, the third book seemed to have a decent plot. I wasn't invested enough by the first one and a half to give it a chance. Sorry, Jack. Glad you found your family though.
