Waking the Dragon by Juliette Cross

5.0

With all the rave reviews I thought this book may be too good to be true. BUT it is as amazing as everyone claims it to be. I never read any of the previous books in this world so I was a little concerned about not understanding concepts, the people, the social constructs, etc. If you're like me you have NOTHING to worry about. I had no trouble understanding anything. With that being said I will DEFINITELY be going back and reading Cross's other books in this world.

It was very well written (and that can be hard to find in the romance genre), the world was built beautifully and I enjoyed the characters. I absolutely loved the main character. She is independent, determined to make a name for herself, smart, funny and doesn't let others tell her what to do. She's also a feminist. I felt the romance was built up in a nice way. It wasn't too sudden where she instantly fell in love with him and they were jumping on each other all the time but it wasn't slow enough where you're screaming COME ON!

That being said this book was filled with action, adventure, romance, some great sexy times ;], humor....had it all. It's a great read.
