The Impatient Lord (Dragon Lords #8) Ebook
Ebook. Dragon-Shifter Romance. Book Eight in the Dragon Lords series. Sci-Fi, Fantasy, Paranormal Romance.
Riona Grey has survived on quick thinking, good luck, and knowing when to walk away. She knows better than to press her luck. That doesn't stop her from doing it anyway, which is how she ends up broke, stranded, and somehow aboard a Galaxy Brides ship headed for a planet of dragon-shifters. It's a temporary problem. She'll find a way out. She always does.
She just didn't expect to wake up months later in an isolation chamber with no memory of how she got there, blisters healing across her skin, and a very intense dragon-shifter nobleman leaning over her bed telling her they're fated mates.
Dragon-shifter Lord Mirek has waited years for fate to reveal his bride. Year after year at the festival, nothing. Then finally her. Wild-eyed, sharp-tongued, and disappearing into the crowd before the ceremony could finish. He acted without thinking, reached for what was his before fate said he could, and Riona paid the price for his impatience. He has spent every day since watching her heal and hating himself for it.
Now she's awake, furious, and completely uninterested in being anyone's wife. He has earned her distrust. He intends to earn her back.
He rushed once and lost everything. This time, he will wait as long as it takes.
