The writing and editing of this novel was pretty clean, with few if any typos that I noticed in the ARC version of this manuscript. I will admit that I enjoy this author's sci-fi romances more than her paranormal romances so far. The world building is minimal, as this novel is set in contemporary Colorado. It was fun to read a novel set in my home state! The characterization was a little flat, but both the hero and especially the heroine were sympathetic individuals. The development of the roman...

Another sweet read for me!This book two and all though the storyline is different the feeling is the same. Sweet, emotional, and loving read. Storyline is relatable. I believe if you have not lived this you know someone who has which makes it easy to invest in. Annnnnnd now I have had enough sweet and need something spicy!Happy reading, DD 🥂

This series is definitely in the "turn your brain off" category. It's not bad, but don't expect to experience any form of suspense or profound thoughts. The "Naked Werewolf" series by Molly Harper has a similar vibe, where it's chic-lit with a dash of the paranormal.Maybe I'll come back to this series when I want something light to read

So-soI wanted to like this book more than I did. Was excited to see a woman find a balance post abuse, to give voice to a character not letting someone else's actions define. And I appreciated the PTSD discussions about love and recovery. I just felt like the romance took away the emotional intimacy at times. Not just from Charlotte and Axel but all the characters in general. Also not a lot of shifting in a shifter book.

The great plot was well written and the characters were so well developed that as I turned each page the chemistry between the characters kept me totally hooked until the very last page!I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

✨4.0✨Charlotte and Axel meet when she runs to Ava's house after being assaulted by her then-boyfriend. As soon as he sees her, he knows she is his fated mate. Like the first, this was a good book, but not a big deal to me. M It was great to see the tension building between them and how incredibly charming Axel was.

It was a good book. I don't understand how Charlotte can be a nurse, go to work, come home and not bathe? And I don't understand how Axel is a cop and comes home without bathing? This was a standout thing to me.

ONE JAW DROPPING BLOCK BUSTER!!!Crap on toast! Roxie dropped the bomb and lowered the boom, presenting one brilliantly composed approach, exposing this kickass spin, taking no prisoners and forget the names, wrapping this gem up sleek, shiny and tight. A non-stop, action packed, hard hitting, pulse racing, heart pounding, adrenaline pumping, nailbiting, page flipping bombshell, hooks you from the start and reels you in for the duration. Rolling with the drama, intrigue, turmoil, secrets, abuse,

Her Dragon Protector, by Roxie Ray, starts with a bang, with the female protagonist, Charlotte, fleeing from her abusive boyfriend, Logan, to Black Claw, Colorado where her best and only friend, Ava, lives. Immediately upon arrival, Charlotte nearly collapsed when she got out of the car from the wounds inflicted by her now ex-boyfriend. The male protagonist is Axel, a dragon shifter. He and his dragon, Asher, realized immediately upon smelling her scent that she was their mate and caught her bef...

This book was slightly complicated. The opening scene is from the last stop which is the end scene where Charlotte basically comes barreling up the driveway to the manner. She gets out of the car battery bruised it could barely stand. She collapses literally in Ava’s arms and almost knocks her over. Axle who automatically senses this is his fated mate is right there to catch her. Holy mess after this begins. Charlotte has bruises, she has been traumatized because Logan who she moved in with did

The next Black Claw Dragons book focuses on the eldest of the Kingston brothers and the Beta of the clan. Axel has struggled most of his adult life with being the eldest, but not the Alpha of the clan - his life has been mostly determined by what his younger brother and Alpha wants and needs. But when Charlotte (best friend of Ava) drives up to his home beaten up by her boyfriend, he realizes that he has finally found the missing piece - his mate. Charlotte is terrified, not just of the latest l...

This is a fated mate shifter story and it is a good story. I like the family overall and the background story line is pretty interesting. I had a couple of issues with the story. This story follows Axel and Charlotte. Axel is the older brother to Mav, from the first story. Charlotte is the best friend of Mav's mate, Ava. Axel was a bit of a downer- he's a beta and throughout the story, he complains a bit that he wasn't the alpha, even though this was postured more as a genetic/scientific fact. C...

Love series with intertwined characters and stories, especially if they are PNRs!Written for mature readers only (18+ years old) due to subject matter that may be a trigger or offensive to some including adult language, adult intimate scenes and violence.While this could be read as a stand-alone, I highly recommend it be read in series order for maximum reader satisfaction and to prevent spoilers due to reoccurring characters and intertwined stories.The story and series are well written with min...
