Review: 
Dragons, vibrant culture inspired by Latina/spanish culture, and a romantic story. 
The first pages where background which for me sometimes can get hard to get into but it didn’t slow my reading down which was great and I did love that introduction to Zarela and how her family was seen in the community. 
Through out the story I felt all the vibrance of the influence of hispanic culture and I just loved it and the determination of Zarela only made these vibrant colours that I imagined more vibrant. 
And dragon! Can we talk about dragons!? I love dragons. Dragones makes things like ten times better. 
Again, I loved Zarela. Her bravery and determination was admirable and even though it clear that she’s afraid she follows her heart and won’t take no for an answer. 
Now, there is also a love story in this book. Was enemies to lovers? Yes. Did I love it? It literally had me smilling at the freaking pages, so yeah I think I like it okay. Jk I loved it. So cute. 
 
So overall. A fast pace read. Had personally for me a good balance of dialogue and action and I would totally recommend if youre looking for a fantasy standalone with dragons, vibrance and a slowburn romance.
