Publisher Description
Cipher needs a bride if he wants to keep his inheritance…
When an ultimatum sets Cipher on a path to find his bride, his first stop is the Royal Matchmaker. But Cipher doesn’t want just any woman. He needs a perfect lady dragon who can handle all that society has to throw at her. A human with a checkered past will never do.
Not even when he’s certain that she’s his fated mate.
Morgan just needs a way home…
Ditched on a deserted planet, Morgan is losing hope of ever escaping. When a gorgeous alien crash lands on the planet, that hope comes roaring back. Maybe he has a way off the planet.
Or maybe they can just cuddle for warmth.
With Cipher at her side, she just might stand a chance against all the planet can throw at them. But the dragon is blowing hot and cold. And no matter how much her body burns for his, she refuses to give her heart to a man who doesn’t think she’s good enough for him.
But what fate has brought together, no challenge can tear apart.
And when Cipher sets his mind to wooing Morgan for real, she doesn’t stand a chance at resisting him.
Customer Reviews
“…an impossible wish he could not afford to keep.”
Cipher has long held a secret wish to find his fated mate, but his mother is determined he take an acceptable mate now. She doesn’t mention waiting for fate, her emphasis is now.
Morgan is a ship’s mechanic who, until recently, thought she knew her crew mates, and how far she could trust them. Turns out there was a lot going on around her she didn’t know about, and ignorance is not a defense should the authorities ever get involved.
This done in one, stand alone story has interesting characters, and features the oldest of three brothers, all of whom have been given the same ultimatum, so it should be fair to expect two more books. A great story about trust, assumptions, the hazards of avoiding conversations, and the importance of understanding those areas between black and white. Part of the fun of this story is seeing the different strengths of each character as they are thrown together for a challenging journey.
I was gifted with a copy of this book and chose to share my thoughts.
The Dragon Lord’s Mechanic
Cipher’s mother has issued a directive to her three sons: marry, and soon, or lose their inheritance. The matchmaker tells him that fate will take him where he needs to go. When he crashes on an unfamiliar apparently unpopulated planet, he comes face to face with a woman who his sure is his mate. Morgan is a mechanic who has been abandoned on the planet because she did not approve of the illegal activity on the ship. She is not the type of woman who will make a good wife for a Dragon Lord. Cipher needs a sophisticated wife who will fit into his life, and will please his mother. Morgan just wants to be somewhere safe and find a job. They work together to survive on the hostile planet. At the same time, they both fight the attraction they feel for each other. How will they get off the planet and back to his home. When they do, will they accept that fate has brought them together and find their happily ever after? This is a great story. The action is dangerous and intense. Cipher and Morgan are a good fit. Both are strong, independent, and capable, and at the end, it looks like they might just be in love. I really enjoyed this story and highly recommend it.

Good
Really enjoyed this one. Two steamy scenes. Lots of tension. She reminds me of Kaylee from Firefly...
