WHAT A DRAGON SHOULD KNOW BY G.A. AIKEN BOOK REVIEW

Only for those I love would I traipse into the merciless Northlands to risk life, limb, and my exquisite beauty. But do they appreciate it? Do they say, “Gwenvael the Handsome, you are the best among us–the most loved of all dragons?” No! For centuries my family has refused to acknowledge my magnificence as well as my innate humility. Yet for them, and because I am so chivalrous, I will brave the worst this land has to offer.So here I stand, waiting to broker an alliance with the one the Northlanders call The Beast. A being so fearful, the greatest warriors will only whisper its name. Yet I, Gwenvael, will courageously face down this terrifying. . .woman? It turns out the Beast, a.k.a. Dagmar Reinholdt, is a woman–one with steel-gray eyes and a shocking disregard for my good looks. Beneath her plain robes and prim spectacles lies a sensual creature waiting to be unleashed. Who better than a dragon to thaw out that icy demeanor?And who better than a beast to finally tame a mighty dragon’s heart?

BOOK DESCRIPTION COURTESY OF AMAZON

Each Dragon Kin book gets better and better, with more humor to make you double over with laughter. Dagmar breeds battle dogs and helps to run her family’s estate. She is called the beast of the North Lands and Gwenvael will face her down if it will gain him an alliance with them. Dagmar has a manipulative, devious mind, and is able to read situations and use them to her will. I loved the part when Dagmar asks where her puppy was and her Dad tells her that they gave it to the dragon. She goes upstairs and she sees him naked with his butt hanging out from under the bed trying to coax the puppy out. She pulls him by his leg and lets him know that her dogs are off-limits as a food source, and if he does eat one he will be very sorry. There is some funny dialogue in there that will have you rolling on the floor laughing,  and wanting to hear some more. I could not put this book down, because it pulled me in completely until the last page. Then I wanted the next book in the series. I loved What A Dragon Should Know and all of G.A. Aiken’s novels, so I give this book 5/5 stars for all the laughter that I received while reading this book.
