Blurb: To be loved by a dragon is to be treasured.
A hundred years ago, werewolf Alpha Montgomery took a risk driven by desperation—he borrowed money from the ancient dragon Warwick Ehecatl, putting up the pack lands as collateral. Now the debt is due, and dragons don’t forget—or forgive. Warwick demands Montgomery’s son, Avery, and three businesses as compensation. As an Omega, Avery knows he is basically useless to his pack, so he might as well agree. He soon has second thoughts, though. Warwick is fearsome, and he’s free to do as he likes with Avery.
Warwick knows his race’s reputation, and he even admits some of it is deserved. But he’d rather cut off his tail than let his innocent mate’s light go out. It won’t be easy, but buried deep, there’s something between them worth safeguarding.
Review:
Funny, fluffy, shifter crack at its finest with zero angst and cuddly as a wolf puppy. It was EXACTLY what I needed when the world went to hell this week. Avery is an Omega wolf shifter who isn’t exactly weak or submissive and is sick to death of being treated like he’s fragile. Warwick is an Alpha’s alpha dragon who just wants to love and treasure his mate. Even the “bad guy” wasn’t really bad, just misguided and shortsighted. 4.5-Hearts rounded UP.
“Stuff it, Puff.” Avery almost laughed at the confused look on Warwick’s face. He’d explain Puff the Magic Dragon later.
I’ve followed M.A. Church from the old days before she was published and I read The Harvest for free on Literotica. I love her humor and her ability to build worlds that are foreign or alien yet still retain their human-ness in a way that is universal and always relatable. The writing and editing are stellar as I’ve come to expect. I knocked off half a heart because the story really needed a smidge more conflict. I wanted Avery and Warwick to work a little harder for their happy ending. I still loved this book and I hope we get to see more of this world one day.
The cover is fine within the confines of a category romance series, but the model doesn’t quite fit my mental image of Warwick. And the eyes freak me out just a bit, aside from the color not being quite right and the swirls around his eyes not being visible enough. I had to enlarge the cover by 200% to see the pattern at all. Overall, the cover gets a solid meh.
