As I’ve stated in previous reviews, I really do not normally enjoy serials. I much rather have the entire book at once to read than have to wait weeks to receive the next installment. For that reason alone, I am very picky over which installment books I do choose to read. Thankfully, Grant is conscious that many readers feel this way and does not make us wait endlessly for installments. She is by far one of the few authors who I would recommend hands down even to people who, like myself, do not enjoy installment reads.

First and foremost I must say that this is a Dragon Kings novel. What does this mean? This means that although this is a great read, those who have not read the previous books will not be able to follow along. The Hot Blooded plot, although a different King’s story, is intertwined with the previous books. Old enemies and familiar faces are predominant in this serial.

From the first meeting, you know there is something special about Iona. You’re not sure what it is, it’s difficult to put a finger on, but it is almost as if she is more than a mere human and possible dragon mate. There is something that distinguishes her from all the other women that have encountered the Dragon Kings.

I have to admit to a soft spot for Laith. He is sweet and tries to come across like he really would rather not have a mate, but it’s pretty obvious that he is already enamored with Iona and we’re less than 70 pages into the entire serial. It can’t be easy being one of the very few Dragon Kings left that has not found a mate and fallen in love. So it comes as no surprise that Laith is falling and falling fast.
