I generally liked this but am on the fence about whether or not I liked it enough to continue the series. The details about the dragons and the Maledinni (the people magically linked to the dragons) were interesting. That being said, omegaverse is often a little hit or miss for me, and I started to get really, really tired of Isavelle’s resistance toward everything by the time the book hit 75% or so. I understand (and even expect) her having to go through growth, but damn, I was getting tired of her by the end. 

That being said, the spice is off the charts in this one.
 

Safety Stats:
Ages:
Zabriel is 23 not counting the 500 years he was asleep, Isavelle’s age is not mentioned.
Cheating:
None.
Other OM/OW:
None.
Separation:
Separated at the very end of the book when Isavelle is kidnapped by the villain. Cliffhanger.
Triggers:
Some mention of violence towards Isavelle by the villain. Some descriptions of violence and death, including the death of a child.
HEA/HFN?:
Cliffhanger, this is the first book of a series.
