Publisher Description
From New York Times bestseller Mimi Jean Pamfiloff comes Draco, a standalone dark romantic fantasy about a man fated to end the world and a woman fated to stop him.
DRACO
Approaching my thirtieth birthday, life seemed a dream: the perfect job, a girlfriend I adored, and endless possibilities ahead.
Then I woke up. Trapped in a grimy cellar, my body frail, and my love vanished.
Determined to break free, I succeed. But then the grim truth emerges: my entire reality is a fabrication, and I’ve been branded as the catalyst for the apocalypse. Why me?
I refuse to accept my fate, but how do I stop it when every move I make only brings me closer to becoming death’s henchman?
PIPER
When a mysterious man showed up at my door, looking to rent a room, I knew I should turn him away. He wasn’t only good looking, which my live-in boyfriend wouldn’t appreciate, but there was something off about him. Still, I couldn’t say no.
Then things take a dark turn when he claims he’s seen me in his dreams and wants me to explain why. He seems crazy. Or is he?
Because strange stuff starts happening, including the unshakable feeling that I know this man from somewhere. I think…I think I’m meant to help him.
But why does every instinct scream to run? And why can’t I resist getting closer?
Customer Reviews
Draco is the bomb
Simply riveting!! Couldn’t put this book down til finished it!! Amazing work Mimi!! The way this book brought you into their lives was greatness. Can’t wait to see if he can top King.
Choices…
Good vs Evil. Son vs Father. The end of the world. It is said that love conquers all. Well in this book, it does after a rocky start together with a strong woman’s determination. For me one of the main points in this spinoff, is will Draco pave his own way, or continue in King’s footsteps by leading the Ten Club. Will he crave power over the love of a good woman, will he sacrifice everything for power. The women is this story, Piper, Jeni, and Mia, prove to be the strongest characters and influences in Draco’s life. Never underestimate the power of a woman! After meeting Piper, Draco finds that he is drawn to her and appreciates her determination and strength. Despite visions that plague them both, and could destroy their budding romance, he follows her advice and faces his demons. After 30 years of being hidden away, presumably for his protection and that of the world, he faces his father and realizes that he does not have to fulfill his designated path in life. After a tragic event, Draco realizes that the love of good woman is worth any sacrifice. There are quite a number of twists in this book and an ending that makes you long for the next chapter of Draco‘s life. The characters are all well written and Mimi Jean has again written a book that is a wonderful page turner. So as I always say, sit down with a good cup of coffee or a glass of wine, and read a very entertaining spin off of the King series. Kudos for another great book and if I may say, keep them coming.
Like father, like son?
Typical Mimi fashion, lots of twists and turns and a good and funny story.
Definitely some inception vibes with this one.
I’ve given high praise to all of Mimi’s books in the past but this ending felt rather abrupt and the cliffhanger ending wasn’t expected (although I suppose it is her style, lol) so I’m only giving it 4/5.
I did enjoy the read overall.
