| Belora, a peasant and daughter of the local healer, is hunting in the
woods. She manages to shoot a stag and is about to take it home when
a huge dragon swoops down and takes it. Belora takes exception to
this and argues with the dragon, who brings her to his knight, Gareth.
A woman who can hear dragons and is not afraid of them is very rare,
and Gareth knows that he has found his mate. Belora and her mother
are taken back to the Lair where the dragons and their knights live so
that Belora can learn their ways. Since Gareth has found his mate,
his dragon, Kelvin, is also allowed to find his. The knight of his
mate Rohtina will become part of the family also since there are so
few women who can communicate with dragons. Belora is just getting
used to her new life and does not know if she is ready to add another
mate to it, until she meets Rohtina's knight, the strong and gentle
Lars.
This is a very inventive and entertaining tale of dragons and knights. The author has created a very vivid world and wonderful characters that inhabit it. I especially liked the dragons; they have such colorful personalities. The unique relationship between Belora's mother, Adora, and Kelvin's mother, Kelzy, leads the reader to believe that Adora and Belora are more than just peasants. Their healing talents, Adora's for people and Belora's for dragons, lead the reader to believe that they are definitely something more. The love scenes are a bit unconventional, but handled very well. I will definitely read the next in this series.
