The Enforcer is book 3 in the Fire’s Edge series and it was another great read. Drake Chandali’s body is failing, he is now over seven hundred years old and with no mate in sight, the end for this dragon shifter seems to be near. But the re-appearance of Camilla Carrillo, a human female he had happen to save from a fire threatening her family and home a few months ago, alters both their lives.

This latest addition to the firefighting dragon series was filled with twists and turns and was definitely action packed. The chemistry between Drake and Camilla was awesome. I loved how different they were; he was so aloof with everyone, a bit on the grumpy side, but he was in extreme pain. And then on the flip side we have Camilla, having just learned that she is a potential mate for someone, leaving all she knows behind, she just takes it all in stride. It actually feels right to her. It does take awhile for Drake to believe that Camilla is meant to be his, but once danger surrounds them, any doubt goes out the window.

Overall, I really did enjoy this book. It was actually great to see a bit of a tie-in with the Inferno Rising series. Looking forward to more books by this author.

Thank you Netgalley and Entangled Publishing for giving me the opportunity to read this complimentary copy. All opinions are my own.

I received an advanced reader's copy of The Enforcer by Abigail Owen from the publisher via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

I had been fortunate enough to read a few other novels by Abigail Owen previously that I liked, so I held my breath a little starting this book in case it didn't measure up. Happily, it was as enjoyable as the others and there was no need to worry!

Overall, I this was a solid romance and I found it to be well written. I especially liked the primary and secondary characters' interactions and found their banter to be amusing, plus it was neat to see the plot with the High King unwind a little more (can't wait for that big showdown in future novels). It was interesting to learn more about the aging process for dragon shifters through enforcer, Drake Chandali, and see how debilitating it is for an unmated shifter.

Nothing was outside of the norm for this book genre, but it was a good novel from a talented author.

Drake is a grumpy Gus, but he gets the job done and he does it well. His word is a good as gold. As his body continues to fail him though, Drake knows his time is up on finding his dragon mate. However, he was hoping for just a little more time before he has to say goodbye to those closest to him. Joining with this new group of dragons isn’t...ideal exactly, and darned if the human female he risked life and limb to save is staying with this motley crew. But who’s mate could she be? Certainly not his, because he would have known when he saved her, wouldn’t he?

Cami has lost her home to a fire and has discovered more than she bargained for as a new, potential Dragon’s mate. She hasn’t found her groove in this new environment, clinging strongly to her human life and family; their familiarity making her feel safe and secure. Drake seems familiar, but Cami doesn’t know from where or why. Regardless, she’s going back home where she feels she’s really needed. Yet when danger finds her and she unwittingly places her family in the crosshairs of said danger, it’s a good thing Drake has her back, because she may have bitten off more than she anticipated...or discovered what she’s been searching for all along.

Drake and Cami cracked me up! Her sassiness and determination to dig under his thick hide and his stoic demeanor and silence in the face of a chatterbox just fanned the sparky little flames between them into quite an inferno of attraction and bonding! They fit well together, even when in denial of the obvious possibilities, but gracious what a journey it was to get there!!

I am loving Abigail Owen’s dragons! The politics, the backgrounds, the friendships, alliances...all are intricately woven and intriguing in their own ways. However the romance is what draws me every time! Drake and Cami were very strong characters and their relationship alternated between butting heads and finding that someone strong enough to stand up to! But it made for wonderful tension and one heck of an intimate explosion! Really, there’s a whole storyline of goodies happening ...

The Enforcer is book three of the Fire’s Edge series and could be read as a stand-alone. There’s a recap given that explains the political landscape and the current situation the guys find themselves in, however, I recommend reading the series from the start because there is an entirely delicious world of sexy dragons and their madcap journeys just waiting to be discovered!

I received an advance reader copy from Netgalley and this is my honest review.
