Publisher Description
Ulvissar, the solitary black omega dragon, is tired of virgin sacrifices. Who even likes humans that way?
However this sacrifice, Alita, is different. She's brave, bold, and brash. So he decides he'll keep her. After a few hundred years and countless women in his horde, he’s ready to finally accept the attentions of the Flame dragon, the long-suffering Nithe.
But when the addition of the latest sacrifice brings an army to his doorstep, how is he to keep his hard-won peace, deal with his heat and his hungry mate, and help asexual Alita romance the troublesome princess running from her joke of a prince, all while defending them all from the armies coming to get his woman back?
And you thought dating was hard.

Next fascinating book in fun series
Warning this book ends with a cliffhanger.
I have been reading this series from the beginning and I have enjoyed all of them. This series is only really connected by the “How Not to” titles, a connection to the supernatural and Stephanie Burke’s seemingly endless imagination. This book concerns a dragon who is an outcast from his people due to his interest in humans.Unfortunately the town near him has somehow got the idea that in order to be safe they need to sacrifice a nubile young female to him every year. As in the other books in her series Burke takes this well worn trope and stands it on its head. Ulivissar has no use for the woman. He doesn’t eat humans and he has no interest in bedding one either. This years sacrifice is a woman called Alita who overcomes her fears and stands up to him. They end up becoming friends and thus starts a colony protected by and protective of the dragon.
But this is only the prelude to the main story of a “Princess” becoming the next sacrifice. Could you get any more clichéd? But wait this is Stephanie Burke we are talking about! Once again we get this trope flipped around and upside down by this marvelous author. You really need to read this if you want to enjoy all the fun but as I said at the beginning this one ends part way through the story. Write fast Ms. Burke. Please.
Please be aware that this is an lgbt story. If this sounds like something you might like then I recommend it highly.
