Wow! This just hit so many spots for me! I absolutely loved this book and I'm a cranky ass mood reader.

This was my first Roe Horvat book (shame on me), but I had so many on my TBR I guess I assumed I had read at least one by now...

Somehow this dragon shifter Omegaverse book managed to be steamy AF and sweet, but not boring sweet. Major cuddling scenes that were done so well. So much affection and affectionate jabs. It is fated mates style, but I loved that we get to see them adjust and try to get to know each other and fall in love.

Everything was done so well without being overdone. The inner thoughts and monologues never got too long or repetitive. There was a bit of research about dragons and mating and it was interesting, no info dumping here. Lawrence (human Omega) has a fantastic transition from shock and a little bit of fear finding out Ernest (the Alpha dragon) is a dragon and all that entails to really getting into it. (I refuse to spoil the epilogue).

Despite the scintillating sex scenes, some of my favorite moments were when they flew together and sat on a mountain, a man leaving against a dragon, or a dragon wing protecting him from the wind, a dragon head peering into a tent... None of it was sexual, it was just perfect contentment and love. I want fan art of those scenes!

I can't wait for the next book with big old grumpy ass Davidson finding his mate!

For those that like to keep track, this book contained:

Cuddling/snuggling/touch galore
Omegaverse
Omega and Alpha pairing
Human and Dragon pairing
Fated Mates
Knotting
Mpreg
Breeding Kink (Roleplay and real thing)
Feeding/caretaking/hovering
Heats
Travel (Chile and holy shit Wanderlust vibes)
Body changes during Bonding phase (chest and stomach on Omega, dick changes on the dragon)
Dragon dick (it's really not the same, and now you know!)
Lactation/breastfeeding/nursing kink (this was my first time with this and it just happens so naturally it just flows...)

A small mention of restraints and a spank or two.
